Notes
Nutritional analysis is an estimate and can vary according to ingredients used.
You can also top with fresh blueberries, strawberries, or raspberries. Instead of walnuts, you can use pecans. I have made the oatmeal the night before and refrigerated it. Just cover it well with plastic wrap to keep the bananas from turning dark. You can reheat it in the microwave and then top with walnuts.
