Whipped Almond Butter Oatmeal with Caramelized Bananas
If you haven't had whipped almond butter oatmeal before, you're in for a real treat. It's extra rich and creamy and full of healthy (and tasty!) almond butter. You're going to love it!
Friends! I have something super awesome to share with you today. Four words: Whipped. Almond. Butter. Oatmeal. This is breakfast taken to the next level.
I'll totally understand if you want to jam right now and make a beeline straight to your kitchen. I wouldn't blame you at all. Actually, if that's what you're doing will you make enough so I can come and join you for breaky?
Whipped almond butter oatmeal is 100% where it's at.
Truth is, I've been totally and completely obsessed with eating oatmeal (or do you say porridge?) every day. I've gone from eating 80% paleo to waking up every morning craving oats. #KeepinItReal
Remember that Coconut Triple Chocolate Oatmeal with Chia Power Crunch Clusters? Ya, that was another fav of mine.
This oatmeal is entirely different than any other oatmeal you've ever eaten. It is a silky smooth breakfast treat you totally don't want to miss out on.
Unlike normal oatmeal which you boil away for a while and then eat, whipped almond butter oatmeal goes for a whiz around in your blender till it becomes super creamy and smooth.
Even though it makes for a healthy start to your day, it feels like a totally decadent treat.
And then there are the caramelized bananas. Have you caramelized bananas before? If you haven't, now is the time to start. Obviously, bananas are awesome just as they are, but when you caramelize them they get extra sweet and a little crunchy. Honestly, it's hard to snack on them straight from the pan.
Happy breakfast eating, my friends!

Hey, this is the most interesting oatmeal recipe I’ve seen in a while. And yes, I see a lot of oatmeal recipes, because I’m a big oatmeal fan. Irish oats, though. I’m going to try this with Irish oats.
Oats are the best, aren’t they? I bought a giant, Costco bag of Irish oats the other day and so have been having them for breakfast every morning. So good!
I’m all about caramelized bananas (and almond butter duh). This looks awesome!
They’re so good! The bananas and the almond butter!
Stunning (as always!) You always come up with the most beautiful breakfast bowls!
Thank you so much, lovely lady!
