Nutritious Oat Banana Shake Recipe
Oat Banana Shake
Greetings! Oats are packed with nutrients, even surpassing brown rice, and are known to have beneficial effects on various adult diseases. Compared to white rice, oats are rich in vitamins B1 and B2, and also contain B6, pantothenic acid, and niacin, making them excellent for vitamin balance. Notably, they can help lower blood cholesterol levels, preventing conditions like arteriosclerosis and heart disease, earning them acclaim as a ‘super remedy for lowering cholesterol.’ Their abundant dietary fiber also aids in preventing constipation and is beneficial for weight management. Today, we’ll be making a nutritious Oat Banana Shake using oat powder. This shake is perfect as a quick breakfast or a healthy and satisfying snack.
Ingredients- 1 cup (200ml) Milk
- 1 Banana
- 5 tsp Roasted Oat Powder
- 1 tsp Honey (adjust to taste)
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, gather all your ingredients. You can substitute soy milk for regular milk if preferred. Using pre-roasted oat powder available in stores will add a nutty flavor without the need for toasting. Adjust the honey to your desired level of sweetness; maple syrup or agave nectar can also be used.
Step 2
Pour 1 cup (200ml) of milk and add 1 ripe banana to the blender. The banana will significantly enhance the shake’s creamy texture and natural sweetness.
Step 3
Next, add 5 teaspoons of roasted oat powder for that delicious nutty taste. It has a pleasant, roasted aroma similar to ‘misutgaru’ (Korean roasted grain powder), making the shake even more delightful.
Step 4
Add 1 teaspoon of honey for sweetness, or to your preference. Feel free to adjust this amount based on how sweet you like your shakes.
Step 5
Before blending, give the ingredients a quick stir with a spoon. This helps to prevent the oat powder from clumping and ensures it mixes evenly, making for a smoother shake.
Step 6
Secure the lid on your blender and blend until the mixture is smooth and creamy. This usually takes about 30 seconds to 1 minute, ensuring no lumps remain. Pour into a glass and enjoy immediately while it’s cold and refreshing!
