Chocolate Scrambled Oats

These sweet scrambled oats are so easy to put together and cook in less than 10 minutes. Perfect for those busy mornings!

Ingredients:

• Banana – Use a ripe banana with brown spots for the best results. The riper the banana the more sweetness this will add and since we are not adding any sugar you will want all the extra sweetness you can get.
• Egg – Used to bind everything together. 
• Cocoa powder – You can use any cocoa or chocolate powder. I prefer using unsweetened cocoa as the sweetness comes from the bananas.
• Oats – The best oats for this recipe are rolled oats but quick oats would work too.
