Ingredients
Oatmeal
- 1/2 cup of quick oats
- 1 tbsp ground flaxseeds
- 1/2 tsp cinnamon
- Pinch of salt
- 1 banana, sliced
- 1 cup unsweetened almond milk
Berry jam
- 1/2 cup frozen mixed berries
- 2 tsp chia seeds

Preparation
Optional: To make oats creamy, use quick oats or process the oats in a food processor.
In a saucepan, add oats, sliced banana, cinnamon, salt, ground flaxseeds, and unsweetened almond milk.
Bring to a simmer on low to medium heat and allow to heat through and thicken for 3 minutes. Remove from stove.
For the berry jam, in a microwave-safe dish, combine chia seeds, frozen mixed berries, and optional sweetener.
Microwave for 1 minute and 30 seconds.
Stir, mash the berries, and allow to sit for 5 minutes to thicken.
Protip: To soften peanut butter, reheat a dollop in the microwave for 30 seconds.
