Crunchy Coconut-Almond Overnight Oats
Recipe by Megan Gaul , adapted to the portions designated in your Partake meal-plan.
This overnight oats recipe is not only filling, it's also incredibly delicious. The texture of the crunchy almonds and coconut flakes sets up an excellent contrast to the cool and coconutty oat mixture. The cinnamon takes it over the top.
If you are like me, and you hate opening a can of coconut milk to only use a 1/4 cup of it, see if your grocery store has powdered coconut milk packets! One brand I have been able to find in my local store is Grace Coconut Milk Powder and it's been a game-changer. No more half-used cans of coconut milk taking up room in the back of my fridge!
Prep Time: 5 minutes
Cook time: 0 minutes
Yield: 1 serving
Ingredients:
- 1/2 cup unsweetened almond milk
- 1/4 cup reduced fat coconut milk (or 10 g of coconut milk powder mixed into a 1/4 cup of water)
- 1 to 2 drops of pure almond extract
- 3/4 cup old-fashioned or quick oats
- 3/4 scoop of vanilla protein powder
- 1/4 tsp cinnamon
- 1 small pinch of kosher salt
- 2 tbsp raw almonds (chopped, or sliced)
- 1 tbsp unsweetened coconut flakes
- More cinnamon, to taste (if desired)
Instructions:
The night before:
--
1. Combine the almond milk, coconut milk, amd almond extract in a lidded container and whisk with a fork until smooth.
2. Add the oats, the protein powder, the cinnamon, and the pinch of salt. Mix again until fully incorporated.
3. Close the lid and store in the fridge overnight.
In the morning:
--
1. The oats will have absorbed some of the moisture and the mixture will be thicker. Pour the oats into a bowl. They are excellent cold, but if you would like them warm, microwave them in 30-second increments until desired temperature.
2. Top your oats with almonds and unsweetened coconut flakes. Sprinkle a little more cinnamon, if you desire.
3. Enjoy!
