Coffee Oats

Here’s a recipe for a delicious and energizing breakfast dish called “Coffee Oats” that combines the goodness of organic rolled oats with the rich flavor of freshly brewed coffee:

Ingredients:

• 1 cup organic rolled oats
• 1 ½ cups freshly brewed strong coffee, cooled
• 1 cup milk (dairy or non-dairy)
• 2 tablespoons pure maple syrup or honey (adjust to taste)
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• Pinch of salt
• Optional toppings: chopped nuts, sliced bananas, berries, coconut flakes, or a drizzle of additional maple syrup; the sky is the limit to your imagination.

Instructions:

1. Combine the organic rolled oats and freshly brewed coffee in a mixing bowl. Stir well to ensure all the oats are moistened. Let it sit for about 5-10 minutes to allow the oats to absorb the coffee flavor.
2. Heat the milk over medium heat in a small saucepan until it’s warm but not boiling.
3. Add the warm milk, pure maple syrup or honey, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt to the oats and coffee mixture. Stir to combine.
4. Cover the bowl with a lid or plastic wrap and place it in the refrigerator. Let the mixture sit overnight or for at least 4-6 hours. This allows the oats to soften and absorb the flavors.
5. The next morning, give the coffee oats a good stir. If the mixture seems too thick, add a splash of milk to reach your desired consistency.
6. Divide the coffee oats into serving bowls. Top with your favorite toppings such as chopped nuts, sliced bananas, berries, coconut flakes, or a drizzle of additional maple syrup.
7. Enjoy your nutritious and flavorful Coffee Oats for a hearty and caffeinated breakfast!
