Frugal Friday: 3 Breakfasts with Oats

What is cheaper and healthier than oats? Nothing!! Oats are so nutritious and delicious and these three recipes are simple and budget friendly.  Click on the recipe title to find out more and Enjoy!

Creamy Cinnamon Porridge with Hemp, Sunflower and Pumpkin Seeds
This recipe has been tested until perfect by my father-in-law, Harry.  P and D devour it every chance they get and I love having a big batch ready in the fridge for weekday mornings when we are in a rush but need something filling and packed with health benefits.

Homemade Healthy Granola
This is my somewhat famous recipe for granola.  It is perfect sprinkled over some Homemade Yogurt, or even with some milk poured over top.  Some of the ingredients are not the cheapest, but I buy them in bulk to save money, and I have provided cheaper (though less nutritious) options in the recipe.

Whole wheat and Oat Pancakes with Caramelized Bananas
This recipe is a family treasure.  The technique for studding the pancakes with golden caramelized bananas comes from my sister.  My dad's pancake recipe has been health-ified with whole grains and healthy fat. Top these with fresh fruit, creamy yogurt and maple syrup and they are to die for.
