Midnight Mocha Bowls (V, GF): the perfect morning treat—a nourishing bowl of dark chocolate, coffee and superfood infused oatmeal to kick off a fantastic morning! Vegan, Gluten-Free, Dairy-Free.
Servings: 2 -3 servings
Ingredients
- ½ to 1/3 cup brewed coffee
- ½ cup to 1/3 cup drinking coconut milk or almond milk plus more for topping
- 1 cup gluten-free rolled oats
- 1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder plus extra for topping
- 1/3 cup vegan dark chocolate chips plus more for topping
- ½ cup unsweetened coconut
- ¼ cup black chia seed or flaxseed plus more for topping
- Maple syrup optional
Instructions
- Mix the brewed coffee with the coconut milk. Pour ¼ cup of the coffee mixture over the oats in either a microwave-safe bowl or a saucepan on the stovetop. For the microwave, the oats and coffee should cook for about 1 to 2 minutes. On the stovetop over medium heat, the oats should cook for 5 to 10 minutes, or until the liquid is absorbed.
- Keep an extra ¼ to 1/3 cup of the coffee mixture for topping. Once the oats are heated, add in the cocoa and stir together.
- Divide the oats into two bowls. Add the chocolate chips, coconut, chia and maple syrup, if desired.
- Pour the rest of the coffee mixture on top and sprinkle with cocoa powder. Feel free to add more coconut milk or cream to make the oats more creamy.
- Top with additional dark chocolate and chia seeds.Recipe from Nourishing Superfood Bowls with permission from author & publisher.
