0:39
- Okay
0:40

0:43
- Uh banana nut oatmeals
0:45
this is gonna be a bowl of oatmeals?
0:49
Or what kind of oatmeals?
0:50
- Bobby is kinda obsessed
0:51
when I'm like I'm gonna make coffee
0:53
which is coffee.
0:54
coffee
0:55
He goes (inaudible)
1:01
- He speaks perfectly just like his father.
1:02
- Yeah so we gonna eat oatmeals (inaudible)
1:05
- Oatmeals (hissing)
1:06
- Banana oatmeals
1:07
- (inaudible)
1:08
- Okay, so
1:09
- What are we doing?
1:10
- This is everything you need.
1:11
- All right what do we got?
1:12
(clearing throat)
1:13
- All right, we got these for two people.
1:15
- These I recognize, these are oats.
1:17
- One cup,
1:18
- Got some walnuts peeled and chilled
1:19
- Two handfuls.
1:20
- This is
1:21
- Coconut sugar,
1:23
- Coconut sugar
1:24
- So two tablespoons,
1:24
- Okay
1:25
- Two heaping tablespoon of almond butter
1:26
or any any nut butter
1:27
that you like,
1:28
it can be peanut butter,
1:29
even the peanut It's a legume not a nut.
1:32
But whatever nut butter you want.
1:35
One cup of almond milk
1:38
or it can be whatever milk you want.
1:40
This is another vegan option.
1:43
So almond milk or if you like oatmeal
1:45
or if you like regular milk
1:47
- Or cinnamon,
1:49
- One cup of water.
1:50
- Okay
1:51
- Then we're gonna need two bananas,
1:53
cinnamon, vanilla, chia and salt,
1:54
- Love it all right so
1:56
- This is all like extra stuff.
1:57
- I'm just guessing
1:58
but I should probably get this water boiling.
1:59
All right.
2:00
- Just turn this on
2:02
- So we use quick oats Bobby likes quick oats.
2:08
- I do. Yeah you know, I mean
2:11
I don't mind you know the traditional oats
2:14
but to me it does even take thirty minutes to make oat meal
2:17
- We like click fast when were hungry fast.
2:19
- Well you have to
2:20
when you got a family you got
2:21
to just bang it out.
2:22
What's gonna take the most amount of time
2:23
is for this water to boil.
2:26
- Well, so water and milk combination
2:28
is that what's going on?
2:29
- So instead of making it
2:30
that it was just a piece of oatmeal
2:32
- It's alright
2:35
It just stood out.
2:37
- I was pretending like it wasn't there.
2:38
- Okay, well, I saw I don't pretend.
2:42
(laughing)
2:46
- Clearly
2:47
- So we can have the maggy powders.
2:50
So we're gonna do cinnamon
2:52
so you can add as much
2:53
or as little cinnamon, chia, vanilla, salt
2:55
as you want.
2:56
Just for the purposes of this video.
2:59
- Are we making a bowl of oatmeal
3:00
or what is this?
3:02
Okay What is this that's what this
3:03
is gonna be is a bowl of oatmeal.
3:04
- Yes
3:06
- We're not making balls This is not
3:07
to be baked in the oven.
3:07
This is the finished product.
3:08
- This is it.
3:09
- Eat it with a spoon oatmeal
3:10
- Or with your hands like Amelia does
3:13
(laughing)
3:16
- One of our daughters just refused these spoons.
3:19
She just reaches in
3:20
- She grabs it whole like this she just eats them
3:23
its a lot of fun to watch.
3:24
(inaudible)
3:26
More fun than watching her eating
3:27
is watching Bobby's face.
3:28
Bobby likes everything so clean though.
3:31
(laughing)
3:32
always like
3:34
- It's hard for me to watch.
3:34
- I need to use the restroom.
3:35
- Yeah, it's all it's all
3:37
- He always pretends he has to go
3:38
when its time to eat oatmeal.
3:39
He's like I need to use the restroom.
3:40
And he's gone for like two hours.
3:42
- I gotta start cleaning up.
3:44
I'm gone for two hours.
3:46
I gotta start cleaning up
3:47
while it's just
3:49
- It gives him anxiety
3:50
- I like my kitchen and my house clean
3:53
- Yeah
3:54
- All right.
3:56
- That's good that's good it's a good problem
3:57
- Is it?
3:57
- Yeah sometimes
3:58
- Cause our house takes
3:59
- Super clean house.
4:03
That's not right I clean the house too
4:05
I cleaned the bathrooms today.
4:07
- All right So great conversation,
4:08
oatmeal and milk drums.
4:13
- So instead of cooking it all in water
4:16
or all in milk,
4:17
you can combine them
4:18
or you can do whatever you want
4:20
and cook it all in water or,
4:22
- And I do that if I'm doing grits for the kids,
4:25
which we often do for lunch,
4:26
we'll make a big bowl of polenta or grids
4:31
I'll scrambled eggs
4:31
and mix in with them.
4:33
I always use a water base
4:37
and bring to a boil and then add in the grids
4:39
or the add in the grids to the point
4:42
and then I'll cook it slowly
4:44
on the stove top.
4:45
I usually start a little bit advanced myself
4:46
from time I'll cook it slowly.
4:49
And I'll add
4:52
- Its a rice the clean King ice.
4:54
- It's all the time
4:56
(laughing)
4:59
With the grids anyway,
5:01
I'll I'll add in little bits of milk
5:03
as I go every so often
5:06
because milk just just really lumps up the grid,
5:09
milk butter or heavy cream into the grids.
5:11
- This is almond
5:13
- This is what?
5:14
- Almond milk or oat milk
5:16
I don't know whatever plant based milk
5:18
then so I put a little bit of vanilla
5:20
and I'm gonna just put a little bit of chia
5:23
chia is nice because it kind of grows
5:26
and it gives a consistency
5:27
like a gelatine consistency
5:30
when it soaks up all the liquid
5:33
and then some sea salt
5:34
- Good for your gut.
5:35
Chia seed is good for your gut.
5:36
- And then some sea salt
5:38
- Nice
5:39
- Just to bring them flavors
5:40
so for those two bananas, one banana,
5:43
we're gonna cut it in chunks.
5:45
- Okay.
5:47
- And were gonna put it right here.
5:50
- Okay does it need to be cut?
5:52
Can I do with my fingers?
5:53
- Yeah, with your hands.
5:54
- what are we what are we talking about?
5:56
when I think of that as a channel
5:58
- I'm gonna mash over the fork.
6:01
- Oh well then okay
6:02
- Just throw there yeah
6:06
So one banana is gonna be mashed with a fork
6:09
- We need a bigger bowl than that.
6:10
- No we'll be fine,
6:11
because we'll put it in here.
6:12
And then you maybe are gonna cut
6:15
that other banana like across.
6:19
You know what I'm saying?
6:20
Like all boys.
6:21
- Okay,
6:22
- So I'm gonna mash this
6:23
while Bobby's cutting the other banana.
6:27
You just mash it.
6:29
Perfect size ball.
6:31
Is that ready?
6:33
- It's it's bubbling it's not quite boiling.
6:36
- We're gonna add that
6:38
That's right. What now?
6:40
- I will cook that for like three minutes.
6:43
- Yeah looks good,
6:47
yeah smells good too
6:50
I'm gonna print it out a little bit lower.
6:51
That's it it's done
6:52
- That's what I would do too.
6:54
So, alright,
6:55
so you want me to cut this long ways
6:56
and then
6:57
- Yeah, so like this
6:58
and then each piece long like that.
7:02
So I'm gonna grab my perfect.
7:06
And then I'm gonna grab my mashed banana
7:09
and I'm gonna add it
7:10
and it's gonna cook in here too.
7:13
It's all gonna be cooking.
7:16
(alarm buzzing)
7:22
- Sorry.
7:25
- While that is cooking
7:26
we're also gonna add one tablespoon
7:28
of the coconut sugar.
7:29
- Okay
7:29
- So that's all mixed
7:30
and cooked together
7:32
for about three minutes.
7:34
- That is looking and smelling so good already.
7:37
- It's gonna be delicious that's lunch.
7:41
And now we're gonna like cook that in the pan.
7:44
- Oh really?
7:45
- Should we put a little bit of like this?
7:49
- Yeah it's nonstick surface.
7:50
- Okay perfect.
7:53
- That's for the topping.
7:55
- Browning?
7:55
- Browning
7:56
- Bananas like foster like bananas foster
7:59
- Bobby is gonna love it
8:04
- Brothers nonstick skillet right there
8:05
and that thing angles thick
8:07
they get out in the driveway
8:10
and drive over to my truck
8:12
which doesn't have anything to do with nonstick
8:14
but I would do it
8:15
- Oh I was like wow.
8:17
- So this would what would be really nice here
8:20
would be to have a kitchen blowtorch
8:23
and put a little bit
8:24
of the brown sugar on the banana
8:25
and so that's a porch.
8:29
- I'm gonna leave that up to you
8:33
- Turn it up a little bit
8:36
- Wow my bananas.
8:40
- If you don't already eat oatmeal
8:42
It is such a great easy meal to cook
8:44
this is what not exactly this,
8:47
but I have oatmeal for breakfast every morning.
8:49
It's just a great start
8:50
- Every morning
8:51
- I try to eat my carbs in the morning
8:53
oatmeal is a good Way a good way to get them
8:55
and with a little chia and flax
9:00
and two blueberries or raisins.
9:03
I just really hit the spot for some walnuts too.
9:06
So alright let's give it a shot
9:08
and see how these bananas do
9:10
that steam is not anywhere near hot.
9:13
- Oh now you can hear it
9:14
(laughing)
9:17
banana, we love bananas.
9:20
- Yeah,
9:21
- We eat a lot of bananas.
9:22
- Our children love them, we love them,
9:24
they don't last around here.
9:26
- Wait a minute.
9:28
Do you think it's been three minutes?
9:30
- I think that's ready.
9:33
- So what I do is after three minutes,
9:35
you also finish it up
9:36
- Come with it mama.
9:37
- two heaping table spoons of nut butter.
9:39
So I'm using almond butter
9:44
since why not almond kick?
9:46
And then we mix it all in.
9:49
It's gonna be so good.
9:51
Are you gonna flip the bananas with your hands?
9:54
- I'm gonna use a spatula.
9:55
- Spatula
9:56
- Yep but I'm going to let you turn that off
10:01
and you'll switch the way
10:03
- You can keep this for like a minute or two
10:11
I think somebody here somebody's awake
10:12
- I hear somebody watch your sweet pan
10:15
- yes and by awake I mean poop.
10:19
Somebody's pooped.
10:20
(laughing)
10:21
probably
10:22
- And what would that even mean?
10:23
(laughing)
10:25
okay, this is ready.
10:27
- Silence is golden unless you have children
10:29
and then silence is suspicious.
10:34
No more quiet.
10:39
I don't think I've ever cooked bananas
10:41
like this before.
10:43
- That's fine.
10:44
I think it's just to warm them up.
10:45
That's for the topping.
10:48
- But they look and smell delicious.
10:51
- I feel when you warm up things
10:52
when you heat up things
10:53
like fruits like the flavor pops out.
10:55
- I agree i think you're right.
10:56
- Like it's more intense.
10:58
I think we're gonna start serving this.
10:59
- Yeah, let's do it.
11:01
There's banana cooked to my liking.
11:04
- I'll probably cook them a little bit longer.
11:06
- They were about medium rare.
11:07
(laughing)
11:08
- I'll probably cook them a little bit longer
11:10
So here we go.
11:11
So again, this is about two servings.
11:14
- Wow, that's beautiful.
11:15
- Yes, smells so good.
11:19
Wow that's a big one.
11:21
(laughing)
11:22
- Well, maybe you can make four servings out of this.
11:25
We're just hungry people.
11:28
We like to eat a lot.
11:30
- We do have hearty appetites around here.
11:33
- Yes, we do.
11:34
- We sit down and we eat.
11:35
- So what we're gonna do at the end
11:37
is we're gonna put two pieces of each banana.
11:40
- Are you gonna top with walnuts too?
11:42
- At the end Yes.
11:44
No.
11:45
- No
11:46
- Okay.
11:47
- Well why not?
11:47
