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:

  1. 100g rolled oats
  2. 250ml almond milk
  3. 1 tsp turmeric
  4. 1/2 tsp cinnamon
  5. 1 tbsp honey
  6. 1/2 tsp black pepper
  7. 1 banana, sliced

Instructions:

  1. 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.
  2. 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. 
  3. 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.
  4. 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.
