Ingredients
  

1 cup rolled oats

2 ripe bananas, mashed

2 tablespoons tahini

2 cups almond milk (or any milk of choice)

1 tablespoon maple syrup (optional, to taste)

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Pinch of salt

Toppings: sliced bananas, nuts, seeds, or a drizzle of honey

Instructions
 

In a medium saucepan, combine the rolled oats, almond milk, and a pinch of salt. Place over medium heat and bring to a simmer, stirring occasionally.

    Once the mixture starts to bubble, reduce the heat to low and let it cook for about 5 minutes, or until the oats are tender and have absorbed most of the liquid, stirring frequently.

      Stir in the mashed bananas, tahini, vanilla extract, maple syrup (if using), and ground cinnamon. Continue to cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, or until heated through and creamy.

        Taste the porridge and adjust sweetness as desired. If the porridge is too thick, you can stir in a little more almond milk to reach your preferred consistency.

          Remove from heat and let it sit for a minute to thicken further. Serve warm in bowls.

            Top with additional sliced bananas, a sprinkle of nuts or seeds, and a drizzle of honey or maple syrup if desired.
