Hearty and great tasting!
Really good, but the bananas did taste a little funny. But after a night in the backcountry, it is amazing with a cup of tea!
Best backpacking oatmeal I've ever had plus customer service is excellent!!
The peanut butter walnut recipe was much better than peanut butter banana. Please bring that back
Excellent breakfast or lunch. Has great flavor and is filling.
One of our best sellers! Glad you enjoyed the meal!
This is one of my favorite breakfasts, now that the apple quinoa oats have been discontinued. I like that you can adjust the peanut butter to taste because it comes with a packet inside. The banana flavor isn't overwhelming or artificial tasting. It's pretty sweet, so if that's not your jam, this probably won't be your favorite.
Glad you enjoyed the meal!!
Very easy to make of course and very tasty, what else more can I say!! Thanks Backpacker's Pantry!!
Hey Joel,
Glad you enjoyed our meal! Have fun out there!
The banana flavor isn’t too strong, which is what I was worried about. Peanut butter taste is perfect! Great for fishing trips on the boat with boiling water in a thermos. Pretty darn good.

I loved how simple this meal was yet flavorful, especially with the PB to really bring it all together. Usually take these on backpack hunting trips, so i pack an extra bag with a serving of granola to add which gives it a little crunch plus some added fruits!
Hey Connor,
We are stoked that you enjoyed our meal! Have fun out there!

Have been using this meal for like 3 years now and usually pair it with a scoop of my favorite granola 👌🏼
I usually do grocery store instant oatmeal packs, I thought I'd fancy it up and it was a great choice! Much less work and tasted a lot better than grocery store brand (name withheld ;) ). I did really like peanut butter sachet but would have preferred bigger banana chunks.
Thanks for the great review, Roshan! We are so glad you enjoyed our Peanut Butter & Banana Oatmeal and hope you keep choosing it ;)
I enjoyed this oatmeal- I reordered it because it’s a nice breakfast both in terms of calories and taste. Banana flavor very mild, I almost didn’t notice it. Easy to make and the portion size is right for one person. Directions were accurate- I made this oatmeal while camped out to climb Middle Sister in Oregon. My campsite was at an altitude of 6400 feet.
However, I kind of wish this oatmeal came with milk powder the way the granola does. Can be kind of gummy unless you add extra water since it’s oats plus you squeeze a packet of peanut butter into it! I brought milk powder (Nestle Nido) which is my go-to for all backpacking cooking involving milk. I reconstituted my milk powder and poured it in the pouch with this oatmeal since I like my oatmeal with some milk or nondairy milk to give it some liquid for easier, less viscous texture and to help me hydrate.
Thank you for the review, Gabrielle! We are so glad you enjoyed our Peanut Butter & Banana Oatmeal. We try to accommodate a range of dietary restrictions when creating our recipes, hence the lack of milk in this meal. Adding milk powder is a great idea though! We will certainly be sharing that food hack!
Delicious
I am unlucky enough to have many medical issues including stage 4 kidney disease from a rare autoimmune disease. I can’t eat much but I am a full-time rv-er and outdoor enthusiast. Finding this “breakfast” has been a lifesaving calorie meal. It’s more perfect than you’ll ever know! I balance between too much and too little potassium but I love bananas so much. This meal (2 meals for me) allows me luxury you can’t possibly imagine! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!
Thank you for the great review, Kim! I am sorry that it has been so difficult for you to find food you can eat on your adventures, but so glad to hear that this meal works for you! That makes our day!
Awesome
I tried this for the first time and loved the flavor. The package of peanut butter was a bit tough to work with on a cold morning. Have you thought about putting a pkt of powdered peanut butter in it? Or have powdered PB mixed in already with the oats? Or even chocolate PB powder..But still, it was wonderful and I will buy it again and again.
I unfortunately only brought one of these on my most recent trip and was amazed at how delicious this was!!! All the flavors are really perfectly balanced and has a lot of protein. It kept me energized and full for hours.
Two of my favorite breakfast foods together with oats. This is fantastic. I have no idea why this hasn't been a thing for a long time. But I'm super glad to be able to get it now. THANK YOU!!!
Thank you for your kind feedback, David! We're so glad you love this breakfast recipe.
...but this is FANTASTIC. Tastes REALLY good, and sticks with you for a while.
We generally do a breakfast of bars...or instant oatmeal...or something fast to grab on the go.
When you've got just a LITTLE more time and want something awesome...this is worth it!!
