Servings 2 bowls

Ingredients
  

  • 1/2 cup rolled oats
  • 1 cup water
  • 1 cup almond milk
  • 2 teaspoons chia seeds
  • 2 teaspoons hemp seeds
  • 3-4 teaspoons almond or peanut butter

Instructions
 

  • In a medium sized saucepan, combine the oats and water. Cover, bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to low and simmer for 15 minutes.
  • Add the almond milk, chia seeds, and hemp seeds. Turn up the heat a bit so the milk heats through, and cook for 5-6 more minutes. The oats will look very soupy at this point, but the chia seeds expand (and the nut butters thicken the oats, too).
  • Once the oats are warm and the chia seeds have expanded, add the nut butter, stirring well.
  • If the oats have thickened too much, add a little more milk or water and heat through. Otherwise, remove from heat, and enjoy!
