Let's cook.

01

Cook and Mix Oats

Start by bringing the water and a pinch of salt to a boil in a saucepan. Once it’s bubbling, add the oats and let them simmer gently for about 5 minutes, or until they reach the creaminess you like. Take the pan off the heat, then stir in the mashed bananas, sunflower seed butter, and a drizzle of agave nectar. Give everything a good mix, and it’s ready to enjoy!

03 / EXTRA DETAILS

Good to know.

Cook's tip

- Use ripe bananas to add natural sweetness without extra sugar.
- Toast the sunflower seeds lightly for a nuttier flavor.
- Stir the oats frequently while cooking to prevent sticking and achieve a creamy texture.
