Peanut butter cookie oatmeal

Well, this is one I posted to Instagram a while back. It's excessively simple, and can easily be adjusted to taste. I love oatmeal, but sometimes it needs a nice kick in the pants.

Serves: 2

Ingredients:

  • 1 C of old-fashioned oats (you can use quick oats, I just don't like them as much)
  • 3 T PB2
  • 2 - 4 T of Coconut Sugar (or whatever sugar you like)
    • I've grown to really like coconut sugar and it's supposed to have less impact on your blood sugar, but you can use whatever kind of granulated sugar you want (although you may want to start with less and adjust to taste)
  • Vanilla (optional)
  • Nuts to sprinkle on top (of course I love pecans, but you can use peanuts or whatever you like)
Directions:
  • Cook oats to package directions
  • Stir PB2 and sugar (tasting as you go, and adjusting to your sweetness level)
  • Stir in a splash of vanilla if you want
  • Top with pecans or your nut of choice and enjoy!
