    Banana-Orange Date Oatmeal


    Source of Recipe


    internet

    List of Ingredients




    3 cups fat-free milk
    3 tablespoons firmly packed brown sugar
    3/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
    1/4 teaspoon salt (optional)
    1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
    2 cups Quaker® Oats (quick or old fashioned, uncooked)
    2 medium-size ripe bananas mashed (about 1 cup)
    2 to 3 tablespoons coarsely chopped toasted pecans
    Vanilla nonfat yogurt
    Banana slices
    Pecan halves

    Recipe




    In medium saucepan, bring milk, brown sugar, spices and salt to a gentle boil (watch carefully); stir in oats. Return to a boil; reduce heat to medium. Cook 1 minute for quick oats, 5 minutes for old fashioned oats, or until most of liquid is absorbed, stirring occasionally. Remove oatmeal from heat. Stir in mashed bananas and pecans. Spoon oatmeal into six cereal bowls. Top with yogurt, sliced bananas and pecan halves, if desired. Makes 6 servings.

    Tip: To toast pecans, spread evenly in shallow baking pan. Bake at 350°F 5 to 7 minutes or until light golden brown. Or, spread nuts evenly on microwave-safe plate. Microwave on HIGH 1 minute; stir. Continue to microwave on HIGH, checking every 30 seconds, until nuts are fragrant and brown.
