Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup rolled oats
- 2 cups unsweetened almond milk
- 1 large ripe banana
- 2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 2 tablespoons dark chocolate chips (sugar-free)
- 1 tablespoon unsweetened shredded coconut
- 1 tablespoon chia seeds
Instructions
In a medium saucepan, combine the rolled oats and almond milk and place over medium heat.
Slice the ripe banana and add to the saucepan. Stir occasionally to prevent the oats from sticking to the bottom.
Once the mixture begins to simmer, add the unsweetened cocoa powder, pure vanilla extract, and salt. Stir to combine.
Cook the oats for about 8-10 minutes, or until they reach your desired consistency, stirring frequently. The banana will naturally sweeten the oats as it cooks and breaks down.
Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the dark chocolate chips, allowing them to melt and blend into the oats for an added layer of creaminess.
Divide the oats into two bowls. Top each serving with a sprinkle of unsweetened shredded coconut and chia seeds.
Serve immediately and enjoy your sugar-free creamy chocolate oats!
