Ingredients

You’ll only require a few everyday ingredients to whip up these scrambled oats. Some additional tips regarding the 3 main ingredients:

  • Banana: Make sure to use a super-ripe banana, as the riper the banana, the sweeter the outcome.
  • Rolled oats: Old fashioned or quick oats should be incorporated into this dish, as this is what the recipe is based on.
  • Greek Yogurt: Whichever milkfat percentage floats your boat.

Instructions

A detailed step-by-step guide for the scrambled oatmeal and other helpful preparation tips, along with pictures, can be found here:

Step 1

Mash your banana well with a fork until no large chunks remain and the mixture is smooth and uniform. Stir in the egg, oats, Greek yogurt, and cinnamon.

Set aside and let the oats swell for a few minutes. You may add as much or as little cinnamon as you like. It all depends on how pronounced you want the cinnamon flavor to be.

Step 2

In the meantime, coat your skillet with oil, which is best done using a basting brush to ensure uniform coverage.

Set your stove to medium heat and, once the pan is hot, pour in the batter. Using a spatula (or something similar), evenly distribute and smooth out the batter.

Step 3

Allow the mixture to set and firm up from the bottom (medium heat). Grab a spatula (or turner) and carefully break your batter apart into larger pieces. Flip each chunk and cook until browned to your preferred level of crispness.

The “batter” can be broken up into smaller or larger pieces. That’s totally your call. However, larger chunks are visually a bit more appealing. 😉

Scrambled oats are unlikely to fill you up on their own. Therefore, I’d highly encourage pairing them with additional “fillers”, like regular or Greek yogurt, skyr (Icelandic yogurt), nuts, or fruits.
