My daughter eats oatmeal every day. Her grandpa eats oatmeal every day. My mom can't stand oatmeal. I was never an oatmeal crazy person but I do miss having the option. Imagine my excitement when I found this gem!
To me this is sweet enough it almost could also be served as a dessert! To increase the protein content to your breakfast add a slice of ham or turkey, and if you're going in that direction you might consider using chicken broth instead of almond milk, cutting the vanilla, and replacing the banana with something else like smashed stewed tomatoes.
Ingredients:
1/4 cup almond meal*
2 egg whites
1 Tbsp chia seeds
1 tsp ground cinnamon
1 banana, mashed
1/2 cup almond milk
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
*Of course I use the almond meal left over from making
Almond Milk - partly to avoid wastage but also because the coarser texture works better than blanched store bought almond meal/flour
Supplies:
Small saucepan/pot
Whisk
Small mixing bowl
Small spatula
Whisk together egg whites and milk first, then add the other ingredients and mix together very well. Bring to a low simmer on medium heat then turn down to low, stirring constantly with a small spatula (or you're likely to end up with a weird omelet/frittata thing). Cooked to your desired consistency.
Add any toppings you like.
