Blueberry Banana Oatmeal is made with healthy, nutrient dense ingredients and is a delicious, hearty and balanced Indian breakfast.
Oats provide complex carbs, banana are high in potassium, blueberries are rich in antioxidants, egg white (optional) gives protein and peanut butter is also a great source of protein and healthy fats!
This Blueberry banana peanut butter oatmeal will keep you full and satisfied for hours and give you sustained energy to keep you focused throughout the day. It is important to start your day with a healthy vegetarian breakfast made with unprocessed, whole ingredients.
I absolutely love this flavour combination but, you can customise this Healthy Indian style Oats however you like. You can add fruits like apple, peaches or anything that is accessible to you. With the peanut butter you use, be mindful that it does not contain large amounts of sugar and vegetable oil. For this recipe, I used homemade peanut butter which you can make yourself too! It is far healthier than store bought ones and still tastes delicious.
I used rolled oats, but you can use instant oats or steel cut oats instead! Instant oats will cook faster and steel cut oats will take longer to properly cook. I find that rolled oats work best with this recipe and is healthier than quick cooking oats.
Personally, this Blueberry banana peanut butter oatmeal is sweet enough for me. It is naturally sweetened by the blueberries, banana and the cinnamon gives it a nice touch. If you want your oats to have a little extra sweetness, you can add honey or maple syrup to the oats!
The egg white adds extra protein which will make the oatmeal even more filling. It also gives the oats a rich, creamy and fluffy texture. This step is optional and the recipe will work without it as well.
