Finally a use for the almond flour thats been sitting in the fridge since I bought it for a cheese recipe which was ok but didn’t inspire me to make it again. The breakfast recipe that did inspire me uses buckwheat groats but since I didn’t have any of those I used ordinary porridge oats and they worked just fine and produced this delicious cherry almond oatmeal cream. I am now intrigued by the buckwheat groats though so watch this space…
This is oh so simple to make. Oatmeal cream made from oats, almond flour, vanilla essence and dates blended together with oat milk (or non-dairy milk of choice), spooned in a glass, drizzled with some date syrup and heaped with fresh or frozen cherries and coconut sprinkles. A little goes a long way, its super filling and that slow release energy from the oats and nuts will keep you going full speed and feeling full for hours.. I lasted all day! Chin chin!
Cherry almond oatmeal cream, gluten free!
Oh and this Martini is without the alcohol but if you want to go ahead! I’m not judging!
Adapted from this recipe right here!
