Oatmeal with Bananas

Ingredients:

80 g rolled oats
350 ml water
maple syrup (to taste)
cinnamon (optional)
a pinch of salt
120 ml milk of your choice
2 ripe bananas
3-4 tablespoons yogurt (optional)

Directions:

1. Pour water, rolled oats, maple syrup, salt and cinnamon into a saucepan.
2. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for about 3-4 minutes (or until almost all the water is absorbed).
3. Then pour in the milk and cook for another 1-2 minutes (or until desired consistency).
4. Mash one of the bananas with a fork and stir into the oats; then stir in the yogurt (if using).
5. Let the porridge sit for about 2-3 minutes (it will thicken even more). If you want a thinner porridge, add a splash of milk, or if you want it thicker, continue cooking the oats until you reach your desired consistency.
