Comfort Food Friday: Breakfast Week




Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Oatmeal

My family loves this baked peanut butter oatmeal, but sometimes I have a craving for the flavors without the time (or patience) to wait for it to bake.  While my stove-top version has an entirely different consistency than the baked variety, on a chilly morning this is pure comfort. 

Place 1/2 cup rolled oats and 1 cup of water in pot over medium heat.  Stir in 1 tablespoon of brown sugar and 1 tablespoon of peanut butter.  Cook until oatmeal reaches desired consistency (usually only 3-4 minutes).   Spoon into bowl and sprinkle with handful of chocolate chips.  Makes 1 large serving or 2 small servings. 




Do you have a breakfast recipe that warms the heart and the tummy, too?  Consider joining the linky below.

  1. I love oatmeal in the fall and winter, but Tim is very much an eggs person.

    This is my favorite oatmeal made with whipped banana.

    There are also tons of variations of add ins for some new ideas.

    Tim also likes this oatmeal, but only if I add Peanut Butter :)
