Print Recipe Pin Recipe
Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

Oatmeal Base (makes 8-10 servings)
  • 3 cups old fashioned rolled oats (I use Bob's Red Mill, gluten free)
  • 4 cups water
  • 1/8 tsp sea salt
  • 1 can coconut milk
Toppings (per serving)
  • 1 tsp chia seeds
  • 1 tbsp ground flax seeds
  • 2 tbsp almond butter
  • 2 tbsp chopped walnuts
  • 1/2 cup mixed berries (blueberries, raspberries, strawberries)

Method
 

  1. Heat the water in a large pot. Once boiling, add oats and salt, reduce heat to medium low. Cook, stirring occasionally about 5 minutes or oats are soft. If oats get too dry before they're cooked, add more water.
  2. Once oats are soft, add entire contents of the can of coconut milk. Stir well for 1-2 minutes. Turn off heat, serve into bowls and add toppings.

Notes

I like to stir my chia seeds in first, so the seeds have a chance to swell a bit. I also like to add a little sprinkle of sea salt at the end.
