Peanut Butter and Jelly Oatmeal
Peanut butter and jelly oatmeal is a delicious way to have pb&j for breakfast. It's packed with fiber and protein and topped with fresh berries.
Ingredients
- 1 cup unsweetened almond milk
- ½ cup old-fashioned oats
- 2 tablespoon peanut butter
- pinch of salt
- spoonful of raspberry jam
- fresh raspberries
Instructions
- In a small pot, combine the milk and oats. Heat to boiling, then turn the heat to low and simmer for 7-10 minutes, stirring occasionally until oats reach desired level of tenderness.
- Turn off the heat. Add the peanut butter and a pinch of salt and stir to combine.
- Pour into a bowl, then drizzle additional peanut butter over the top if desired.
- Top with a spoonful of raspberry jam. Swirl into the oatmeal if desired.
- Top with fresh raspberries and enjoy.
Notes
- Heating the oats and almond milk to boiling and then simmering over a low heat is the trick to getting the oats perfectly cooked. If you cook over too high of a heat, the milk will cook out and the oats won't be tender enough.
- I use unsweetened vanilla almond milk for this. I recommend using an unsweetened milk, otherwise it may be too sweet with the jelly.
- You can easily swap out a different flavor of jam or jelly.
- If you don't have fresh fruit for topping the oatmeal, you can always use frozen!
- To drizzle the peanut butter on top, you can heat it up for a few seconds in the microwave. That makes it easier to drizzle! Or you can just add a small dollop or leave it off completely. There's enough peanut butter flavor in the oatmeal!
- This recipe is very easy to double or triple!
