Peanut Butter Breakfast Oatmeal Bowl

If you’re looking for a nutritious breakfast that takes five (5) minutes to make, look no further. It’s fiber- and protein-packed, so it’ll keep you full until lunch. For more healthy oatmeal recipes, try my Oatmeal Berry Smoothie Bowl, Banana Nut Protein Oats, and Instant Pot Steel Cut Oats.

Is oatmeal a healthy breakfast?

This oatmeal bowl is a heart-healthy breakfast and a great way to start the morning. Although the carbs are high in this oatmeal bowl recipe, it’s loaded with whole grains and fruit with over 11 grams of fiber and 11 grams of protein. This is a great way to get all your fruit into one meal and I love eating a rainbow of colors which has a variety of vitamins and minerals.

How do you sweeten oatmeal naturally?

I don’t add sugar to my oats. Instead, I use ripe mashed banana to naturally sweeten them, which make the oats sweet enough for me. Feel free to drizzle some honey or maple over the oatmeal if you like them sweeter.

Oatmeal Bowl Toppings:

I  love topping my oatmeal breakfast bowl with fresh fruit, almonds, chia seeds, and peanut butter that I warm in the microwave. The toppings are versatile, though. Below are more topping ideas, but let me know in the comments below if you come with others! Fruit: Banana, raspberries, blueberries, strawberries, blackberries, peaches, figs Dried Fruit: Dried cranberries, prunes, dates Nuts: Almonds, walnuts, pecans, pistachios Seeds: Chia seeds, flax seeds Sauce: Melted peanut butter, almond butter, or sunflower butter, honey, maple syrup
