Directions
- In a medium pot, add the drained oats, plant milk, cinnamon, and pumpkin pie spice. Bring to a gentle boil, then reduce to a gentle simmer. Cook for 10 - 12 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Then add the ground flaxseeds, banana, and vanilla extract. Stir and continue to cook for another 2 minutes.
- When the oats are cooked through, it’s done! Add more milk if a thinner consistency is preferred, or cook for another couple of minutes to thicken.
- Add toppings and enjoy!
Notes
- †Soaking steel-cut oats increases nutrient absorption and helps decrease cooking time. If using unsoaked oats, double the cooking time and add about 30% more milk. Learn more about the benefits of soaking in our PUL article.
- †Nutrition tip: aim to use plant-based milk that is fortified with calcium.
Storage
- Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
- Reheat leftovers on the stove or in the microwave. If possible, add the banana fresh the next morning.

Sympa, mais pas dingue non plus. Intéressant si on en a marre des flocons d'avoine et qu'on veut changer un peu d'approche
Wholesome and quick
Yummy as always
So Good 🫶🏽
Easy and tasty
I've been making these for over a year without fail and this has become my go to healthy breakfast. I add tons of seeds to bump up the protein, and enjoy with seasonal fruits. This is the recipe that made me an oats lover and I've been recommending it to friends and family since then! ❤️❤️❤️ I look forward to breakfast every single day😇
This is the first time my porridge is perfectly creamy and delicious 😋
Thank you for the timer what a fantastic idea 💡 I just forgot the banana because I wasn't awake haha 😆
This app is a gem
I used oats instead of steelcut oats and it was delicious!
This is a great base recipe that I use all the time with different flavor combinations. I’ve found that cooking this in the instant pot (12 mins on high and natural pressure release for 20 mins) cuts down on cook time and does not require me to pay attention to it. I also sometimes use dates to sweeten this naturally.
So aesthetically and thoughtfully created article. Thanks a lot for putting it out there.
Base recipe is amazing, and my go to for steel cut oats. But this recipe can easily be adjusted to try out new flavor options or combos, depending on what's in season and what you have on hand. The hardest part is remembering to soak them the night before, lol.
Thanks for sharing the recipe.
Very interesting blog. I would definitely recommend this to my family and friends. Thank you.
This recipe is so easy to understand and looks so yummy. Even the information shared is so apt about steel cut oats and rolled oats and it is very detailed. A perfect blog for steel cut oats. I would recommend this blog and the recipe to my friends and family. I have been using Steel Cut Oats from True Elements - a clean label food brand and I am going to try this recipe now.
Just made it with quick oats and a mix of almond and oat milk and topped eith frozen blueberries, flax seeds, chia seeds, banana and some date syrup. So incredibly delicious! Tastes very different to making oats with water I definitely recommend trying this out :)
I tried this recipe. Its now one of my most favourite breakfast😊
Thank you for all the tricks to make it so delicious 😊❤️
I love this recipe and don't how many times had it during my breakfast!!!
Hi!! If we are using old fashioned rolled oats.....do we have to soak it overnight?? and can it be prepared and stored??? or finish it that day itself!!
I tried this recipe at home. It was really classy and creamy. I used True Elements steel-cut oats for it which was a perfect Oat for this recipe. Thank you for this recipe.
