One of the easiest recipes ever…and so decadent and delicious. I usually break my fast with a more savory meal (eggs, sweet potato latkes, quinoa fritters, etc) so I prefer to enjoy this as a late afternoon pick me up or as a post workout snack. Also makes for an amazing dessert. Rolled oats are more commonly used but I actually prefer the texture and crunch of steel cut oats. Try both and enjoy!!
