Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Almond flour
- 2 tablespoons Ground flaxseed
- 1 tablespoon Chia seeds
- 2 tablespoons Unsweetened shredded coconut
- 0.5 teaspoons Cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 1 cup Unsweetened almond milk (or milk of choice)
- 0.5 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon Sugar-free sweetener (e.g., erythritol or monk fruit)
- 2 tablespoons Chopped nuts (e.g., pecans, walnuts, or almonds) - optional
Instructions
In a medium saucepan, combine almond flour, ground flaxseed, chia seeds, unsweetened shredded coconut, cinnamon, and salt. Stir well to mix the dry ingredients.
Slowly add the almond milk while stirring to prevent clumping. Place the saucepan over medium heat.
Cook the mixture, stirring constantly, for about 3-5 minutes, or until the cereal thickens to your desired consistency. Lower the heat if it cooks too quickly.
Once thickened, remove the saucepan from heat and stir in vanilla extract and sugar-free sweetener. Adjust sweetness to taste as needed.
Pour the hot cereal into a bowl and top with chopped nuts or additional shredded coconut, if desired, for added texture and flavor.
Serve immediately and enjoy your truly low-carb hot cereal!
