Print Recipe

A creamy, no-cook breakfast that tastes like a peanut butter banana milkshake. Made with simple ingredients and ready in 5 minutes, this kid-friendly recipe is perfect for busy mornings.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup old-fashioned rolled oats
  • 1 cup milk of choice
  • 1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt
  • 1 large very ripe banana
  • 3 tablespoons creamy peanut butter
  • 2 tablespoons maple syrup or honey
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Pinch of salt
  • Optional toppings: sliced banana, extra peanut butter, chocolate chips, chia seeds, cinnamon

Instructions

  1. Mash the banana in a jar or bowl until mostly smooth.
  2. Add milk, Greek yogurt, peanut butter, maple syrup, and vanilla extract. Stir until well combined.
  3. Add oats and salt. Stir until all oats are coated and no dry patches remain.
  4. Seal the container and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight.
  5. In the morning, stir the oats. If too thick, add a splash of milk. Add toppings and enjoy cold or microwave for 45-60 seconds for a warm breakfast.
  6. Store in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. Add toppings just before serving.

Notes

Use a very ripe banana for natural sweetness. Old-fashioned rolled oats are essential for the best texture. The flavor improves after day 2. For a nut-free version, use sunflower seed butter. For gluten-free, use certified gluten-free oats.
