Without my banana nut oatmeal I would be lost. I had this every morning when I was a university student. It is the perfect breakfast option if you’re in a rush. These oats can be ready in 3.5 minutes, consumed in 7 minutes, and digested slowly so you’re not hungry 60 minutes later. Banana lovers rejoice and get on the RADNUT banana oat boat!
For those who aren’t fans of bananas, substitute banana with 1 tbsp cranberries and 1/3 cup berries or use 1/3 cup apple chunks, extra cinnamon and cloves instead.
