Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Unsweetened almond milk
- 2 tablespoons Chia seeds
- 2 tablespoons Flaxseed meal
- 2 tablespoons Peanut butter (creamy and unsweetened)
- 1 tablespoon Low-carb sweetener (such as Stevia or Erythritol)
- 0.5 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.5 teaspoon Cinnamon powder
- 1 pinch Pinch of salt
- 1 tablespoon Chopped peanuts (optional for garnish)
Instructions
In a small saucepan, combine the unsweetened almond milk and a pinch of salt, and heat over medium heat until it starts to simmer.
Stir in the chia seeds and flaxseed meal, and reduce the heat to low. Cook the mixture while stirring constantly to prevent sticking, for about 5 minutes or until it thickens to your desired consistency.
Add in the creamy unsweetened peanut butter, low-carb sweetener, vanilla extract, and cinnamon powder. Mix well until everything is fully incorporated and smooth. Continue to cook for another 2-3 minutes.
Taste and adjust sweetness if necessary by adding a little more sweetener if desired.
Remove from heat and let it sit for a minute to allow the flavors to meld together.
Transfer the low-carb oatmeal to a serving bowl. Optionally, you can garnish with chopped peanuts for added texture and flavor.
Serve warm and enjoy your creamy, low-carb peanut butter oatmeal breakfast.
