The array of toppings of this tasty breakfast are delicious and functional. They provide an array of healthy fats and some plant protein, slowing down the release of carbohydrates from the oats. The addition of the plant protein will also make this a more rounded meal.
Ingredients
| 100g | Jumbo oats |
| 300ml | Coconut milk |
| 200 - 300ml | Water (depending on desired consistency) |
| 2 tsp | Milled chia or flaxseed (optional) |
| 3 - 4 tsp | Arctic Power Berries Blackcurrant powder |
| 2 - 3 tsp | Maple syrup (to taste, optional) |
| 1 scoop | Plant based protein (optional)* |
| handful | Apple slices, walnuts, Cacao nibs, Hemp seeds, Bee Pollen, for toppings. |
Directions
- Mix together the oats, coconut milk, water, chia or flax if using in a large pot. Bring oat mixture to the boil. Reduce to a simmer, and then cook for 5 - 8 minutes, depending on desired consistency.
- Add the berry powder and plant based protein if using at this point with the additional water (see note below).
- Serve oats topped with apple slices, walnuts, cacao nibs, hemp seeds, and bee pollen.
*If using the plant based protein you will likely need to add about 125ml more liquid to the mixture. If using, I like to mix this separately with water and add it into the oats once cooked.
