A nourishing and comforting breakfast providing lasting energy and reducing inflammation – oats are known to boost milk supply and is a great pairing with a herbal tea to keep you hydrated (serves one).
Ingredients:
- 100g rolled oats
- 250ml almond milk
- 1 tsp turmeric
- 1/2 tsp cinnamon
- 1 tbsp honey
- 1/2 tsp black pepper
- 1 banana, sliced
Instructions:
- Begin by heating the almond milk in a small pot over medium heat. Once warm, add the rolled oats and reduce the heat to low. Stir occasionally, letting the oats simmer for about 5-7 minutes, or until they are soft and have absorbed most of the liquid, creating a creamy texture.
- Once the oats are cooked and creamy, stir in the turmeric, cinnamon, black pepper, and honey. The spices not only add flavor but also help regulate blood sugar and inflammation.
- Remove the pot from the heat and transfer the oatmeal into a bowl. Top with fresh banana slices for added natural sweetness, fiber, and a boost of potassium.
- Feel free to add a handful of nuts or seeds (like chia seeds, flaxseeds, or walnuts) for added healthy fats, protein, and omega-3 fatty acids.
