Gingerbread Oatmeal
To make the gingerbread oats, you’ll need the following ingredients:
- steel cut oats
- ground flax seed
- almond milk (or milk of choice)
- gingerbread spice mix (see below)
- vanilla bean paste (or extract)
- molasses
- maple syrup/brown sugar
Optional addons:
Protein powder or collagen peptides are always a nice addition to oatmeal to round out the macro nutrients a little more proportionally.
You can add a scoop of unflavored or vanilla protein powder or collagen to this recipe without changing any of the ingredient quantities.
Pecans or walnuts are a nice garnish and go well with the gingerbread flavor of the oatmeal.
