Calories 355kcal
Ingredients
- 2 cups unsweetened almond-coconut milk blend plus more for serving (see note)
- 1 cup Quaker® Old Fashioned Oats
- ¾ teaspoon chai spice blend see note
- 2 tablespoons pure maple syrup
- ¼ cup toasted sweetened coconut chips
- ¼ cup cup toasted sliced almonds
Instructions
- Combine almond-coconut milk and oats in a medium saucepan. Bring to a boil, stirring occasionally, and boil for 5-7 minutes. Feel free to add additional milk if you'd like it thinner.
- Stir in chai spice and maple syrup. Divide the oatmeal between two bowls and top each bowl of oatmeal with coconut chips and sliced almonds. Stir in a splash of almond-coconut milk if desired.
Notes
- If you don't have almond-coconut milk blend, you can use either almond milk or coconut milk. If you use a sweetened variety, you might need less maple syrup.
- Chai spice: you can purchase this as a spice blend, or you can make your own by combining: 1 teaspoon cardamom, 1 teaspoon ground allspice, 3 teaspoons ground cinnamon, ½ teaspoon ground cloves, and 3 teaspoons ground ginger. This will make more than what you will need for this recipe; store it in your spice cabinet and use it for other recipes.
