Ingredients

½ cup (or more) unsweetened coconut milk or milk of your choice (such as oat, hemp, or cow’s milk)

½ cup old-fashioned oats

1 tsp. ground turmeric

½ tsp. Diamond Crystal or ¼ tsp. Morton kosher salt

1 steamed small sweet potato, peeled, mashed

1 very ripe banana, mashed

1½ tsp. ghee, unsalted butter, or vegan butter, melted

½ tsp. ground cinnamon

Fresh fruit, dried fruit, nuts, and seeds of your choice (for serving)

Method

Bring coconut milk and 1½ cups water to a boil in a small saucepan. Stir in oats, turmeric, and salt. Reduce heat to medium-low and cook, stirring occasionally, until oats are tender and mixture is creamy, about 4 minutes.

Remove pan from heat and stir in sweet potato, banana, ghee, and cinnamon. Add a little more milk to loosen if desired.

Top with nuts, seeds, and sliced fruit as you like, paying attention to what your body needs and craves for the day. Serve warm to the people you love.
