Banana Breakfast Oats

 I love making steel cut oats for breakfast. This is a super filling way to start the day. Which contrary to what people may believe it in order to keep up a healthy lifestyle and stay full through out the day a substantial and satisfying breakfast is key. From a health perspective steel cut oats are not interchangeable with quick oats or old fashioned oats. If you're looking for a healthier option try rolled oats instead.
