Overnight oatmeal is catching up as a favourite breakfast. And why not? It is healthy, it is loaded with fibre and most importantly it can be prepared previous evening. Just load up on this banana choco chip overnight oatmeal for breakfast. What are you waiting for 🙂
Overnight oatmeal is nothing but soaking oats in a liquid (usually some kind of milk like cow’s milk or almond milk). Add any toppings or flavours you like, make it your own. I love the idea of translating ice cream flavours (without the guilt) *grin* into overnight oatmeals. I saw this idea on Pinterest.
This provides instant energy boost. As the name suggests, banana choco chip overnight oatmeal has sweet ripe bananas obviously along with fun choco chips. Add any kind of flavour you like, I have added honey and vanilla. Add any fixings you prefer like marmalades or jams along with any toppings you like.
Prepare this previous night and you are simply ready to go in the morning. Just put the kettle on for tea/coffee. While waiting for your morning hot drink to brew, quickly lap up this mug of instant goodness.
Try oats porridge with dry nuts if you have more time to spare or if you want something a little more warm. Oats upma recipe for something savoury also on FOI. Orange oats breakfast muffins, another fun way of incorporating dietary fibre.
