Ingredients:
Instructions:
- In a medium saucepan, combine the multi-grain oatmeal, almond milk, and coconut milk. Stir to mix thoroughly.
- Place the saucepan on medium heat and bring the mixture to a gentle boil, stirring occasionally to prevent the oatmeal from sticking to the bottom of the pan.
3. Add Sweeteners and Flavorings:
- Once the oatmeal begins to boil, reduce the heat to low. Add the honey, chia seeds, vanilla extract, and a dash of salt. Stir well to combine all the ingredients.
- Continue to cook the oatmeal on low heat for about 10-15 minutes, or until it reaches your desired consistency. Stir occasionally to ensure even cooking.
- While the oatmeal is cooking, drain and chop the canned pineapple into small pieces. If desired, toast the dried coconut meat in a dry skillet over medium heat until it turns golden brown, enhancing its flavor.
- Once the oatmeal has finished cooking, remove it from the heat. Stir in the chopped pineapple, reserving a few pieces for garnish if desired.
- Spoon the oatmeal into bowls. Top with the toasted (or untoasted) dried coconut meat and any reserved pineapple pieces.
- Serve warm and enjoy your delicious, tropical coconut oatmeal!
Tips:
- For a thicker consistency, let the oatmeal simmer for an extra 5-10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Adjust the sweetness by adding more honey or substituting with a sweetener of your choice.
- Enhance the tropical flavor by adding a sprinkle of shredded coconut or a few fresh coconut slices as a garnish.
- If you prefer a crunchier texture, reduce the cooking time of the oatmeal.
- Storing leftovers in the fridge and reheating them with a splash of coconut milk can make for a quick and easy breakfast the next day.
Your Tropical Coconut Oatmeal is now ready to be enjoyed. This creamy, flavorful breakfast not only satisfies your taste buds but also equips you with sustained energy for the day. Serve warm and enjoy the tropical vibes with every spoonful.
