Most people who cook at home regularly have favorite recipes they make over and over, and this Quick and Easy Peanut Butter Oatmeal that I learned to make from fellow food blogger Alanna Kellogg is one of my favorite things to make when I need a really quick breakfast and want a treat.
This simple four ingredient breakfast treat combines microwaved extra-thick oatmeal with a generous scoop of peanut butter, for a simple easy breakfast that tastes delicious and will keep you going until lunch. This is a bit of a splurge on carbs for me, but oatmeal does have some fiber so check the nutritional information and see what you think.
What ingredients do you need for this recipe?
(This is only a list of ingredients; please scroll down for complete printable recipe. Or if you use the JUMP TO RECIPE link at the top of the page, it will take you directly to the complete recipe.)
- oatmeal (rolled oats), preferably Bob’s Red Mill Extra Thick Rolled Oats (affiliate link)
- water
- salt (do not leave out the salt)
- peanut butter, preferably Adams 100% Natural Peanut Butter (affiliate link)
- Some people like this with a sprinkle of ground cinnamon, but I never use that.
What Type of Oatmeal Do I Use for Peanut Butter Oatmeal?
There are three types of oatmeal: instant oatmeal, quick oatmeal, and regular oatmeal (also called rolled oats). Some people also like steel cut oats, which are even more nutritious but not suitable for microwave cooking like this! Here’s some information about all the types of oats from Cook’s Thesaurus.
Since less processed foods are lower on the glycemic index, regular oatmeal is best for carb-conscious eaters or South Beach Dieters. I always use Bob’s Red Mill Extra Thick Rolled Oats (affiliate link) for this recipe. (That’s an affiliate link, and because I know some of you might be wondering, Bob’s Red Mill has not compensated me in any way to promote their oatmeal!)
What peanut butter do I use for Peanut Butter Oatmeal?
I always use Adams 100% Natural Peanut Butter (affiliate link), which is the brand I’ve been using for many years. I like chunky peanut butter best in this for a little extra crunch.
Can Peanut Butter Oatmeal Be Made Ahead?
I knew some of you who scramble to even find a couple of minutes in the morning would want to know this, so I tried it, and yes you can make this, refrigerate overnight, and then heat the next day. Add a bit of water and microwave for about 1 minute to reheat. However, you’re only saving minutes, and it’s much better freshly made.
Tips for Success with Peanut Butter Oatmeal:
- If you have a 4-cup glass measuring cup, that’s the perfect tall container for making two servings
- The basic ratio for Quick and Easy Peanut Butter Oatmeal is one part oatmeal to not quite two parts water.
- I use 1/2 cup of Bob’s Red Mill Extra Thick Rolled Oats for a single serving for myself.
- Don’t forget to add a pinch of salt for each portion of oatmeal.
- Then microwave the oatmeal until it’s done (see below for timing, and be sure to stop and stir a few times); then add the peanut butter and let it melt, and stir.
- That’s it. And peanut butter oatmeal is meatless, vegan, South Beach Diet Phase Two, dairy-free, and kid-friendly!
Want a fun kid-friendly variation for this oatmeal with peanut butter?
If you’re a mom or dad who’s making breakfast for kids it would be easy to turn this into peanut butter and jelly oatmeal, which would still be a really nutritious breakfast for a school-day morning.
How to Make Quick and Easy Peanut Butter Oatmeal:
(This is only a summary of the steps for the recipe; please scroll down for complete printable recipe. Or if you use the JUMP TO RECIPE link at the top of the page, it will take you directly to the complete recipe.)
- For two servings of oatmeal, you’ll need about 1 cup rolled oats (not instant), 1 3/4 cups of water (or a little more if you like thinner oatmeal), and a little salt.
- Stir the oatmeal, water, and salt together in a 4-cup glass measuring cup (or a bowl with high sides) and microwave on high for 2 minutes.
- Then stir and cook the oatmeal 40-60 seconds more, stirring once or twice, until it’s as thick and soft as you prefer.
- I always use my favorite Adams 100% Natural Peanut Butter (affiliate link), but choose a peanut butter without added sugar if that’s important to you.
- Add 4 tablespoons peanut butter, let it melt a couple of minutes, then stir into the oatmeal.
- That’s it! Peanut butter oatmeal is easy and delicious for a quick healthful breakfast.

oops, sorry. I read sodium count as carbs!
I was just coming to tell you that!
The carbs listed seems crazy high. Is it a typo?
I buy those oats in six package boxes so I never run out. They're the best. Will be trying this peanut butter version first thing tomorrow morning!
Judith that is absolutely the ONLY oatmeal I buy. Hope you enjoy with the peanut butter!
My daughter would absolutely love this…but she'd ask for chocolate chips to go in. 🙂
Michelle, I will never tell if you add a few chocolate chips!
Now THIS is breakfast! PB and oatmeal – bring it on!
Thanks, glad you like it!
PB Oatmeal?! This looks so yummy! Thanks for the recipe!
You're welcome; glad you like it!
There's always something new to discover on your blog, Kalyn! I'm with Sara on the almond butter variation. Thankfully, I don't have a peanut allergy, but I usually prefer almond butter. I could also see a tiny dollop of chocolate hazelnut butter instead … on occasion. 😉
Thanks!
Shirley
Shirley, that sound great for a treat!
I love the sound of this! I think I'll try it with almond butter, I have a peanut allergy kiddo. 🙂
Thanks Sara! Those peanut allergies can be really scary, but I think this would be delicious with almond butter!
My kiddos don't like oatmeal but LOVE peanut butter! This is going to save my mornings!!
Anna, that's great! So glad it is useful for you.
YUM! This looks like the ultimate breakfast comfort food!!
Thanks Becky! It's been comforting me for about 9 years now!
You had me at peanut butter! I need a change up for my breakfast routine and this looks like just that!
Krista @ Joyful Healthy Eats
Krista, my thoughts exactly about peanut butter! Hope you enjoy.
I'm going to have to try this, it sounds like a perfect fill-you-up-without-dragging-you-down breakfast.
It really is; hope you enjoy!
So glad to see you’re still turned onto oatmeal and peanut butter! I still make it my same old way, in the microwave in my bowl: JW won’t touch the stuff!
Oh Alanna, that is just sad. He is really missing out!
Glad to hear it!
I didn't believe it was going to be good, but it was.
It was delicious!!!! Thank you!
Sara, I use this Adams brand peanut butter. I'm not familiar with those two brands, but check the label and buy the one with the least sugar and you should be fine.
Hi, I know you mentioned in your post to purchase peanut butter without added sugar… what kind of peanut butter would you recommend?
I am currently using Smuckers Natural and/or Simply Jif… are there ok for the South Beach Diet?
Now I'm thinking I have to try oatmeal cooked in milk after two commenters have mentioned it. The peanut butter is great with the oatmeal!
I make my oatmeal with water, but, just before I take the bowl to the table, I add a splash of milk– delish–
Hmmm, Interesting. I've never cooked my oats in water. Always with milk. But, I'll try the Peanut Butter regardless…Just as soon as I get off Phase 1.Sigh.
I'm not sure how it would work to cook the oatmeal in milk or use almond butter; you would have to experiment with that. I wouldn't use honey, it's listed as a food "to avoid or eat rarely" even for phase two.
Hi Kalyn,
That sounds wonderful! Would it be SBD friendly if used lowfat milk instead? And I wonder it would taste as good with almond butter….and also for phase 2, do you think sweetening it with a bit of honey would work?
Hina
Cristy, this would be phase 2 or 3 for South Beach, and you should not have nuts for a snack on the day you have this for breakfast. It does say that it's phase 2 or 3 in the post, but I will edit to make it more noticeable.
Hi! First, thank you so much for your blog! You are such a great recipe wizard!! I have a question. Is this recipe Phase 1 friendly? I wasn't sure if you could have oatmeal on Phase 1 or not? Thanks!!
Let's see, chocolate, peanut butter and oatmeal? Definitely sounds good to me!
This is a wonderful recipe! I found a great brand of oats that has rolled oats, wheat bran, and flax seeds, and I used this for the recipe. I did add in a sprinkle of cinnamon and it was fantastic! I am not a fan of oatmeal, generally speaking, but this was just great. I am a HUGE fan of PB so I was excited to find this recipe! I have some unsweetened chocolate flavored almond milk and am going to try cooking the oats in that… mmm chocolate, peanut butter and oatmeal! Thanks for sharing this recipe. Love your blog – I reference it frequently.
I started eating Peanut Butter Oatmeal about 6 months ago and fell in love, literally. It's kind of weird how much I love this oatmeal. I have never liked any kind of food this much. It is almost an obsession. When I get into bed at night, I am actually giddy and can't wait til the morning to eat my PB oatmeal! I know that's sad, but it is so wonderful! Paired with my PG Tips tea, it is a piece of heaven in the morning while I read the paper. My kids make fun of me b/c I eat it everyday. It has definitely aided in my weight loss. I usually eat breakfast around 9am after a busy early morning — 5:30am workout followed by getting my older kids off to school and my little one up and fed. It fills me up so that I don't feel hungry until 2pm! Then I have a light lunch (around 300 cal) and a regular dinner. I can go on and on and on about this oatmeal. I consider the day that I found this blog with so many SB friendly recipes a blessed day but the PB oatmeal was the ultimate find! A million thanks to Alanna who originally created(I think) it and to Kalyn for sharing it! God bless you both!
Anonymous, I've never tried it with other kinds of nut butters but I can't imagine why it wouldn't be good.
Can you use some of the other nut butters, like almond butter? I don't care for peanut butter in other foods. Thanks
I love peanut butter and because of that, I might have added too much peanut butter.
I was searching for a better way to make oatmeal with brown sugar and cinnamon and came across your recipe for oatmeal and peanut butter. I added extra peanut butter and like I said, I added too much. I'll have to try this again, with less peanut butter.
Jen, glad you liked it! This is definitely my favorite SB breakfast for work days!
I just made my regular whole rolled oats with milk and water and stirred in some peanut butter. It’s delicious! Thanks for the idea. It’s so filling and makes a great change from eggs.
Well, though peanut butter is definitely an acquired taste (and something I haven’t yet acquired, I must admit), I had this peanut butter oatmeal in St Louis this summer – made by ‘the’ Alanna herself – and I quite liked it 🙂
A great way to start the day I will try this!
Peanut butter works surprisingly well in oatmeal. I like to add bananas to to the oatmeal and peanut butter as well.
Andrea, now I’ve got to look for “pin head oats.” Never heard of that before!
Asan oatmeal lover, I am going to have to try this! Thanks for the idea.
I am also a complete convert to “pin head” oats, and I use the crock pot to cook them overnight, so they are ready in the morning. (A trick I learned from Alton Brown.) Simply use one cup of pinhead oats to four cups water, or replace one of the cups of water with milk or cream for a slightly richer version. Sooo good!
Adding peanut butter would be like a p-b oat cookie, yes? Yum!
Hello there! I am sooo excited I found your blog. I did South Beach Diet several years ago with Weight Watchers support and lost 25 lbs. I got pregnant and now I’m back to square one. I am going to start the South Beach again tomorrow and I’m THRILLED to find your blog. It’s amazing and so informative. I’m sure this is going to be a wealth of knowledge for me. Thank you, thank you, thank you. I cannot say it enough. Your blog will keep me motivated and fed each and every day. Let’s the games begin…hehehehe.
I DO THIS TOO
it’s awesome. daily lunch. plus fat free greek yogurt and i’m in heaven
I do the Zone diet plan, and I’ve done this for a few years now. I just either stir in some fat-free cottage cheese or low-carb yogurt (people turn their noses up at the sound of this combo, but trust me, it is very tasty), or add some microwaved turkey bacon on the side, to increase the protein and make it more Zone favorable.
HRM, I am just about to make some for myself! So glad you liked it, and thanks to Alanna for introducing me to this idea.
Peanut butter and Oatmeal. I have finally found another breakfast I can eat on the South Beach without involving eggs. I love eggs, but everyday is just too much routine for me! Before SB if I had oatmeal it would be with equal parts of brown sugar, so I wasn’t sure how I was going to manage oatmeal without sugar. And then I found your PB idea. I have just finished the bowl and mmm it was good and I am full and happy. Thank you! Another day started right on the South Beach!
Anonymous, I’d say it tastes more like oatmeal than peanut butter, but you can taste the peanut butter a bit.
Good idea to cook overnight!
Is the peanut butter a strong flavor? I’m not a fan at all, but I love oatmeal.
I cheat when I make my steel cut oats. I bring 4C of water to a boil, add my cinnamon, or apple pie seasonings, and then add 1C of oats. Then I turn it off and let it sit over night. In the morning, I just turn the heat on, adjust the flavoring, and cook it till warm through – 7 min or so.
No big crock pot to clean, and by the time the coffee is ready, so are your steel cut oats.
I have been addicted to food blogs lately. This is a definite try and great for my diabetic husband. Soooo Fast!! Thanks for the creative idea to both parties involved -Sarita
By the way, for those who want some awesome tasting steel-cut oatmeal, check out Coach’s Oats…they sell them at Costco in a huge bag and they cook in 4 minutes in the microwave. Totally South Beach friendly and they are wonderful with a little peanut butter added.
Joanne, no, there are no grains permitted on phase one. This is great for phase 2 or 3 though. You should count the peanut butter as your nuts for that day though and not have nuts as a snack.
I am new to SB, is this recipe phase one friendly??
I had this yesterday as my first Phase Two breakfast. It was so delicious. Even my fiance, who doesn’t like oatmeal, thought it was good thanks to the peanut butter. I used Old Fashioned/rolled oats and cooked them on the stove with milk. Just a half cup kept me full for hours!
I tried this with steel cut oats. I also added a little plain soy milk. It was so good! I can’t wait for breakfast tomorrow! 🙂
i used rolled oats and cook at 50% power for 3 1/2 minutes. i/2 cup oats to 1 cup water or f/f milk. oh, and i put the pb in bfore i nuke. it’s very quick. if i let it sit too long, and it gets too think i just add some more liquid and stire. this has been a favorite of mine for the past decade. found in prevention magazine under peanut butter diet. yummmmm
Mamashift, that sounds just delish!
I love to do this recipe and add walnuts and grated apple.
I do love the idea of making it in the crockpot! I also really like the steel-cut coats. Thanks for sharing.
I love this! I make it with steel cut oats that I make in the crockpot overnight. Personally, I like it better than when I tried it with Quaker Oats. Thanks so much for this recipe; I never would have thought to add PB to oatmeal!
Looks Yummy. I will try this.
This sounds very yummy 🙂 Just the other day I added a scoop of moccha protein shake & half a banana to my oatmeal and it was awesome. But PB! Don’t know why I didn’t think of it before, now I will have a new variation of oatmeal to try 🙂 thanx for this tip!
Oh, by the way… I think I read that if you make oatmeal with milk instead of water it’s more like a protein than a carb or something like that. I’ll look for a source.
THANK YOU for reminding me about peanut butter oatmeal!!! I used to make this when I was in my teens, only I used to add cocoa powder to the oatmeal first. Mmmmm…
Natalie, laughing here because that’s just how I felt when Alanna told me about it!
Oh my gosh, I think this is the most amazing thing I have heard about in a while. I feel so stupid for not thinking of this before! I LOVE LOVE LOVE peanut butter, but my relationship with oatmeal has been steadily declining. I think this will bring me back to loving oatmeal!
Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!
Hmm, Mickey I will check the Grape Nuts box and report back. It seems like it might have whole grains. Hope so!
i just tried making warm grape nuts with peanut butter and it was amazing as well, though i don’t know if it is south beach friendly (i saw your site linked from pastaqueen). 1/2 C each grape nuts and skim milk warmed in the microwave for about a minute on high, then stir in 1T peanut butter. a really great breakfast.
I need to put in a plug for Creme of the West. They sell all types of whole grainsfor pennies. They do take longer to cook but the nutrient& fiber contents are amazing
Oatmeal is great so many ways; I ordered it in the hospital every day with peanut butter and raisins, and was about all I had the appetite for, for 5 days! When I got home I made it on the stove, 1 T raisins, sprinkle cinnamon, 1/2 C oatmeal with 1 C milk; heating the milk just to almost boil, then add the oatmeal, turn to low, and cover/cook for 5 min which absorbs most of the liquid. Then I put 1 T toasted almonds and 1 T Smuckers natural peanut butter in the bowl with the oatmeal-just like a warm oatmeal cookie for breakfast! Add SBD friendly as well!
This looks great! And, my child loves anything with peanut butter, so now maybe I can get her to try oatmeal.
This looks like one to try…thanks so much for the post!
I’m slurping on a bowlful of oatmeal-peanut butter even as I type this…what a great start to the day! That Alanna sure is clever 🙂 And you Kalyn, are the best for sharing this with us!
Karina, I just learned that oatmeal has gluten. I think peanut butter quinoa sounds great.
Paz, and G.P. Give it a try!
Alysha, like the idea of cooking it in the rice cooker. I want to try the steel cut oats.
Brady, thanks for being a fan. Actually the only thing not SB approved in your version would be the sugar. I bet kids would love this!
I may have bastardized this a bit, but as I am not a South Beacher-just a Kalyn fan-I think it’s ok. I cooked my oatmeal in milk instead of water, used natural peanut butter and added a sprinkle of cinnamon sugar to it. It was the best. How is it I never thought of this before? Peanut butter oatmeal cookies are my favorite!
Thanks, again for a great recipe. The kids and I love it.
Brady
Why didn’t I think of that? 🙂
I made the move to making my own oatmeal last year after I got a rice cooker. You can assemble everything in the cooker the night before, set the timer and wake up to oatmeal ready to eat! It was great when I had to leave the house by 7:15 a.m., but wanted a hot breakfast. This way too – I can make enough for the whole family at one time.
I tend to prefer steel cut oats. They do take longer to cook than rolled oats, but I love the texture. And with the rice cooker, time isn’t an issue.
I will give the PB version a try. DH has been asking me to make oatmeal………
Two of my fav foods, pb and oatmeal… will have to try this combo..
Peanut butter oatmeal? Very interesting!
Paz
Om my goddess! I have to make this gluten free. I’m thinking – peanut Butter Quinoa! 🙂
Emily I would guess that steel cut oats would take a bit longer to cook, but it’s only a guess. I think you could still use the same method, but might have to do a few more 15 second sequences. Let us know if you try it how long it takes.
That sounds incredible – thank you both, Kalyn and Alanna, for posting this oatmeal.
Do you know if the cooking times need to be adjusted for the steel-cut oats? They’re my personal favorite.
I actually learned to like oatmeal I have to try this.
I’m really not a fan of oatmeal (it’s a texture thing, I have trouble eating anything that ‘gluggy’, bananas included!) but as I have an addiction to peanut butter, I’d be up for giving these a shot!
Coffeepot, I think Grapenuts sounds like a pretty healthy breakfast too, but I’d have to check the label. I’m a neurotic label reader.
Ilva, try it. You’ll like it.
Sarah, thanks for the reminder about the steel cut oats. Even better.
GFBTB, thanks. Can you eat oatmeal on a GF diet? I saw different opinions on it.
Ooh, another new twist for oatmeal. I’m always looking for new things to do with it. I recently posted my coconut oatmeal recipe which I came up with because I was bored of the plain stuff. Lovely blog!
Don’t forget about steel cut oats too, which are nutritionally the best since they are rougher and can really clean out the system.
I bet this would be good with that type of oatmeal too.
Interesting! I always loved oatmeal just like it is but maybe I should try this just to jazz it up!
I am trying to diet but I’ve already had grapenuts this morning.
I am going to try this tomorrow. I love PB.
Alanna, I agree that the old fashioned oatmeal is great! The sugars taking longer to digest is what the glycemic index is all about (that’s what the South Beach Diet is based on). But you are absolutely right that different diets work for different people. Thanks for mentioning that this is great for WW too. I think about the only diet this wouldn’t work for is gluten free (I think oatmeal has gluten??)
The peanut butter makes this a gourmet treat, at least for me.
Foodie’s Hope, as Alanna mentioned, I firmly believe that you have to choose a diet based on your own food preferences. I was never a big sweets eater, possibly one reason South Beach has worked so well for me. I lost over 40 pounds and have kept it off for two years, three months so far, while writing a food blog and thinking about food all the time. There’s some links in the bottom left sidebar of my blog if you want to read more about how it worked for me.
Does this south beach diet really work?
Bowl of oatmeal looks good though!! Oatmeal is also good for your heart and cholestrol!!
Enjoy!!:))
Isn’t it good?!
Since Kalyn’s the one who taught me that “different diets work for different people”, I’ll mention that this is Weight Watchers friendly too. A 1/4 cup old-fashioned oats (which has more fiber) and a tablepoon of peanut butter is a rich-tasting 3 points. If I’m saving points for later in the day, I’ll use a half tablespoon for 2 points.
And I’ll share something else, too, something I’ve learned since you were here, Kalyn. Remember how I told you that usually it’s quick (NOT instant) oatmeal that I keep on hand but that what we were eating was old-fashioned rolled oats? And that I thought I preferred the quick?
Well, all that’s changed. It took a week to get used to the thicker texture of the old-fashioned oatmeal and now I love it.
But here’s the real trick. I’m no longer getting the hungries at 11 o’clock.
And just this week I read that there’s a chemical reason for this: that the sugars of the whole grains take longer to digest, keeping my blood sugar even and preventing a mid-morning slump. An added benefit is that I’m drinking less coffee … and therefore sleeping better at night, too.
All this from a lowly bowl of oatmeal! (Don’t forget the peanut butter …)
