1
Cook the Oats
In a medium saucepan, combine 1 cup of rolled oats and 2 cups of water or milk. Add 1 tsp of salt to the mixture. Bring to a boil over medium heat, then reduce to a simmer.
2
Simmer
Let the oatmeal simmer for about 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until it reaches your desired consistency.
3
Remove from Heat
Once cooked, remove the saucepan from the heat and let it sit for a minute to thicken further.

4
Slice the Banana
While the oats are cooking, slice the medium banana into rounds.
5
Assemble the Bowl
Spoon the cooked oatmeal into a bowl. Top with sliced bananas, 1 cup of blueberries, and sprinkle 2 tbs of cocoa nibs on top.
6
Sweeten (Optional)
If desired, drizzle honey or maple syrup over the top to add sweetness.
