These overnight oats are full of fibre (both soluble and insoluble), anti-oxidants, a source of iron, protein and relatively low in sugar (especially great for my gut dysbiosis/candida patients).
Dairy free and even technically gluten free (the jury is still out on oats), I like to prescribe this to people who:
-Have constipation
- Have ADHD
- Gut dysbiosis/ gut fungal infections
- Eczema issues
- Women's productive issues
-Thyroid issues
Mostly I love them because they are a great easy way to keep a clean diet when you are time poor and on the run (I make mine in a jar and grab a spoon for the train or car).
Ingredients
-
½ Cup Oats
-
¼ cup linseeds/flaxseeds
-
¼ cup hemp seeds
-
1 tablespoon of panela sugar
-
1 tablespoon black chia seeds
-
1 teaspoon of cinnamon + nutmeg
-
1½ cups almond milk/nut milk ( I use the brand uluhye)
-
1 tablespoon coconut yoghurt
-
Pumpkin and pepita seeds (for garnish/crunch)
-
Mixed berries
Directions
In a mason jar, add oats, linseeds, black chia, hemp seeds, panela, spices and milk.
Close the lid and give a good shake. If its too full combine with a spoon.
Pop it in the fridge overnight (or at least 2 hours/ until the milk has plumped up the chia seeds)
Prior to consumption add coconut yoghurt, mixed berries and pumpkin seeds/pepitas and enjoy!
Recipe Note
Some fun variations include:
- Adding cacao powder or cacao nibs
- Adding a spoon full of tahini/ peanut butter or any nut butter for that matter.
- Add some açai mixture (available in woolies in the frozen section).
