Ingredients
  

1 cup rolled oats

2 cups almond milk (or any milk of your choice)

1 ripe banana, sliced

2 tablespoons caramel sauce (store-bought or homemade)

1 tablespoon maple syrup (optional for extra sweetness)

1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Pinch of salt

2 tablespoons chopped walnuts (or pecans)

Extra banana slices and additional caramel drizzle for garnish

Instructions
 

Combine Ingredients: In a medium saucepan, add the rolled oats, almond milk, ground cinnamon, and a pinch of salt. Stir the mixture well to ensure the oats are evenly coated and combined.

    Cook Oats: Place the saucepan over medium heat and bring the mixture to a gentle boil. Once boiling, reduce the heat to low and let it simmer for approximately 5-7 minutes. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking and to achieve a creamy consistency in your oats.

      Add Flavors: After the oats have cooked to your preferred level of creaminess, remove the saucepan from the heat. Incorporate the vanilla extract, caramel sauce, and maple syrup (if you desire additional sweetness). Stir thoroughly until everything is nicely blended.

        Incorporate Bananas: Carefully fold in the sliced banana, allowing the warmth of the oats to slightly soften the fruit while preserving some of its texture.

          Serve: Dish out the creamy caramel banana oats into serving bowls. Top each bowl with additional banana slices, a generous drizzle of caramel sauce, and finish with a sprinkle of chopped walnuts for a delightful crunch.

            Enjoy: Serve your oatmeal warm, and relish the sweet, creamy experience of these delicious caramel banana oats!
