Step 1

Bring the water and soy milk to a boil. Once boiling, add the oats, reduce the heat to medium, and add in the salt and vanilla extract. Cook for 6-8 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Step 2

In the meatime, add the pumpkin seeds to a blender or coffee grinder and blend for 5-10 seconds to grind. Then stir into the oatmeal. NOTE: You can skip this step and just sprinkle the pumpkin seeds on top if you like!

Step 3

While the oats are simmering, I like to add the frozen berries to small sauce pan along with a splash of water and sometimes a dash of maple syrup too. Warm the berries on medium heat until thy're plump and have released thier colorful juices (about 5 mins)

Step 4

Transfer the oatmeal to a bowl and pour the warmed berries and all of the berry juice in the pan on top of the oats. Top with banana slices, peanut butter, and maple syrup and enjoy!
