Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup rolled oats
  • 1 cup cooking liquid, water or milk of choice
  • 1 tablespoon chia seeds
  • 1-2 tablespoons peanut butter
  • 1 apple, chopped
  • 1/2-1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1 tablespoon hemp seeds
  • 1 tablespoon ground flax seed

Instructions

  1. OPTIONAL: put oats and chia seeds in a jar or container, cover in water and soak for 30 minutes to overnight.

  2. Drain oat and chia mixture and rinse well. Add oats and chia seeds to a pot over medium heat. Cover with water and bring to a light boil. Turn heat down and simmer until oats are soft and have absorbed all water. Add water and continue cooking until desired thickness/texture.

  3. OPTIONAL: I like turning off the heat, putting a lid on the pot and letting the oats sit covered for 5-10 minutes. This makes them creamier. 

  4. Add oats to a bowl and top with peanut butter, chopped apple, cinnamon, hemp seeds and flax seeds. 

Recipe Notes

The amounts listed above will make one generous breakfast bowl. Double, triple, etc. as needed.

This breakfast bowl is so customizable based on what you have/what you like. Try using other fruit, seeds, nut butters, etc.
