Delicious No-Oats Oatmeal

Granted it’s not oatmeal but what else to call it? Creamy and satisfying, nutrient-dense and RESTART friendly, this paleo cereal made itself a permanent part of my breakfast rotation. Add “cake-inspired” toppings for visual delight, gratifying contrast of texture and increased nutrient-density.

  • Carrot Cake
  • Lemon Blueberry
  • Apple Pie

What other combinations could you try? Isn’t it a whole new spin on breakfast?!

Making Breakfast Easy

In just a few minutes, make breakfast the night before, and it’s ready in the morning. If you haven’t tried overnight oats before, this is a great recipe to start with. I love Angela Liddon’s website  Oh She Glows;  although I don’t think I will ever be vegan, I’ve made many recipes from her website. Her cookbook is one of only three I have in my kitchen—that’s how much I use it.

There are innumerous recipes for overnight oats. The more I make them, the more concoctions I come up with depending on fresh and frozen fruits (and nuts) I have on hand.

If you don’t like the texture simply skip the chia seeds. Instead sprinkle a tablespoon or two of ground flaxseeds and mix in right before eating.

Instructions
  1. In a small bowl, mash the banana until almost smooth. Now stir in the chia seeds and cinnamon until combined.
  2. Stir in the oats, almond milk, and vanilla (if using). Cover and refrigerate overnight, or a minimum of 2 hours.
  3. In the morning, stir the oat mixture to combine. If your Vegan Overnight Oats have a runny consistency even after they soak, simply stir in an additional 1 tablespoon chia seeds and place the mixture back in the fridge until it has thickened up. If the oat mixture is too thick, simply add a splash of milk and stir to combine.
