Banana Bread Steel Cut Oats Recipe

Breakfast is my favorite. Most days I don't work until 9ish, "ish" being a cushion of about twenty minutes because in Italy no one is on time ever, ever. It's great. I drink my coffee slowly, read blogs and emails, respond to comments, plan the day, do some stretches, eat oatmeal. Look, even Manu knows how much I love it.

Can we discuss how much his English is improving? I just hope he doesn't ever stop saying things like, "do y have a breakfast". Because that would just be sad.

Banana Bread Steel Cut Oats

(serves one)

1 1/2 cups water or milk*

1/4 cup steel cut oats

pinch of salt

1 banana

1/2 teaspoon brown sugar (or to taste)

1/4 teaspoon vanilla 

1/4 teaspoon cinnamon

2 tablespoons chopped walnuts

Bring the water or milk just to a boil. Turn the heat to medium and add the oats and salt. Cook uncovered for 25-35 minutes stirring every now and then until the oats have absorbed most of the liquid. In the meantime, mash the banana with a fork in a bowl. Add the brown sugar, vanilla, cinnamon and walnuts. Pour in the oats and stir well. *If you like your oats to be looser, you can add more milk at the end.

Bananas and walnuts were meant to be together. Like me and breakfast, really.
