Notes
Banana: Ripe bananas are best as they add more sweetness and creaminess. If your bananas aren't quite ripe, microwave them for a few seconds to soften them.
Milk: You can use any milk you like, whether it's dairy, almond, oat, or another non-dairy alternative.
Sweetener: Honey is a great natural sweetener, but you can also use maple syrup, agave nectar, or a few drops of stevia to taste.
Protein Boost: Add a scoop of protein powder to your oats for an extra protein punch.
Toppings: Here are some ideas: chopped nuts, shredded coconut, a drizzle of nut butter, a dollop of Greek yogurt, or a sprinkle of granola.
