Peanut Butter Banana Oatmeal is the creamiest healthiest version of peanut butter oatmeal. You’ll love making, serving and eating this super satisfying and special breakfast for just yourself, or for family and friends.
This Gluten-free, Vegan breakfast is high in fiber, potassium and protein! Peanut Butter Oatmeal has no added sweeteners; it’s sweetened with just banana, and tastes utterly perfect!
Ingredients in Peanut Butter Banana Oatmeal
In addition to having no added sweetener, Peanut Butter Banana Oatmeal is healthy because of the excellent ingredients it uses:
- rolled oats — Oats are healthy because they provide fiber, whole grain gentle nutrition, and they’re an excellent source of Vitamin B1 (which is missing from a lot of modern diets).
- banana — As you probably already know, but it’s true!, bananas are a great source of potassium (which is a mineral in which most people are deficient).
- Peanut Butter Powder, <– This brand is best. I talk just below about why peanut butter powder is healthier than peanut butter.
- oat milk, or almond milk (Try to find a clean brand without oils, thickeners or vitamins added. I like Malk or Three Trees brands best. Or use easy homemade oat milk.)
- sea salt, or Potassium Salt for more minerals
Why is peanut butter powder healthier than peanut butter
Made with organic Peanut Butter Powder, instead of peanut butter, this oatmeal recipe’s fatty acid profile is better! — as the polyunsaturated fats (PUFAs) are removed from peanut butter to make PB powder.
So low in fat overall, and with a better ratio of good fats, this breakfast treat, snack or healthy dessert is the smart way to enjoy peanut butter.
How to make Peanut Butter Banana Oatmeal
- Add all of the ingredients to a pot. Bring to a slow simmer over medium high heat.
- Reduce heat to medium, and stir 6 minutes; then cover, remove from heat, and allow to steam 5 minutes.
- Serve with toppings of choice. This oatmeal recipe is wonderful without toppings, or I also like to top with oat milk and optional maple syrup.

Megan,
Are you aware of this:

Would peanut butter powder be different?
Megan says
Hi Theresa, yes, it’s a great page from him! This recipe is not VAD/Low vA. I do plan to send this brand of PB powder in for aflatoxin testing, though. But I do not eat it myself because I’m doing the long term detox.
Theresa says
Thank you so much! I love PB so I was hopeful. -`♡´-
Ginny says
Is it still best to avoid peanut butter powder on the VAD?
Megan says
Hi Ginny, yes! Sorry for us. 😉
