By Nathan Haskins
In a medium saucepan, bring 1 cup of milk or water to a gentle boil over medium heat.
Stir in 1/2 cup of rolled oats and add a pinch of salt. Reduce the heat to low and let it simmer for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Add the sliced banana and 1 teaspoon of cinnamon to the oats. Continue to cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until the mixture has thickened and the oats are soft.
Remove the saucepan from the heat and let it sit for a minute. This allows the oatmeal to thicken further and the flavors to meld.
Spoon the oatmeal into a serving bowl, and top with 1/8 cup of chopped walnuts for added crunch.
Drizzle 1 tablespoon of maple syrup over the top to add sweetness, then serve warm.
