Dietitian’s tip

This is a carb-forward breakfast, so the protein from peanut butter and milk matters - it slows digestion. If you're watching carbs, use half a banana and a smaller scoop of oats.

Dietitian’s notes

  • Oats bring soluble fiber that's good for heart health; the peanut butter adds staying power so you're not hungry by mid-morning.
  • Stir the peanut butter in while the oats are hot so it melts through.
