Ingredients

Oatmeal

  • 1 cup unsweetened coconut milk (from the carton NOT from the can)
  • 1/2 cup rolled oats
  • 1 Tbsp chia seeds
  • 1 Tbsp unsweetened shredded coconut

Frosting

  • 0.5 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 0.5 oz unsalted butter, softened
  • 1/3 cup powdered sugar
  • 3/4 tsp milk of choice
  • 1/4 tsp vanilla extract

Instructions

  • Heat the coconut milk in a small saucepan. Add in the oats and chia seeds. Bring to a boil, and reduce the heat. Allow to simmer for 4-5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove from heat and mix in the shredded coconut. Set aside.
  • Meanwhile, in a small bowl, mix together the frosting ingredients until smooth. Set aside.
  • Pour the oatmeal into a bowl, and top with the frosting. Sprinkle with additional shredded coconut if desired.

Notes

  1. This frosting recipe makes quite a lot for one bowl. Save some for later by storing it in an airtight container in the fridge.
