Maqui Berry Oats
A creamy, luscious, vegan and gluten free recipe for maqui berry oats. Power up your oatmeal (or porridge) with this South American super fruit!
Servings 1 large bowl
Ingredients
Oats
- ½ cup rolled oats*
- 1 cup milk almond
- 1 teaspoon chia seeds
- 1 Tablespoon maqui powder
- Pinch of salt
- Pinch of cinnamon
- 1 scoop protein powder optional - I used collagen peptides
Toppings
- Handful of granola
- Handful of blueberries
- 1 teaspoon hemp seeds
- 1 Tablespoon walnuts
- Other ideas: freeze dried fruit fresh mint, chia seeds
Instructions
- Mix the oats and milk together in a small pot over medium heat. Bring to a soft boil and let bubble for 2-3 minutes until slightly thick.
- Add in the chia seeds, maqui powder, salt , cinnamon and protein powder, if using. Stir to combine thoroughly.
- Cook a few more minutes until the oats looked soft and porridge-y. If the mixture looks too thick, add a little more milk to thin it out. I like to add a splash of milk at the end to cool it down a bit.
- Add to bowls and top with all the things!
Notes
* You can also use a half and half combination of rolled oats and oat bran to create a more porridge-y consistency. You may need to add more milk!
