Servings 1
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup oat bran [Gluten Free- use GF oats]
- 1/2 teaspoon of salt
- 1 1/4 cups dairy free milk of choice divided
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla essence
- 1 large egg for a vegan option, sub for 1 flax egg- 1 T flax + 3 T water
- 1 scoop of vanilla or unflavoured protein powder optional*
- 1 tablespoon coconut flour sifted
- 2 teaspoon natvia natural sweetener or sweetener of choice
- 1-2 tablespoon shredded coconut
- Nut butter/toppings of choice
Instructions
- Combine oat bran, salt and 1 cup of milk in a saucepan or microwave safe bowl until most of the liquid is absorbed. Whisk in the whole egg very well and continue cooking for another 1-2 minutes, or until the egg is fully cooked and oats are fluffy.
- Stir in the vanilla protein powder, sweetener of choice, vanilla essence and coconut flour until fully combined- Oat bran mixture should be extremely thick. Add in the extra 1/4 cup of milk and ensure it is well mixed. Once this is done, refrigerate uncovered.
- The next morning, stir the oatmeal very well before adding the shredded coconut and nut butter/toppings of choice.
Notes
The protein powder is optional- If you omit or used an unsweetened one, ensure you add some honey/maple syrup/brown sugar/sweetener of choice. Ensure you use the whole egg and not egg whites as it provides the cake batter like texture. If you don't have coconut flour, add a tablespoon of flaxmeal, oat flour or an extra tablespoon of shredded coconut.
