Blueberry Coconut Pecan Oatmeal

Did you know…

Blueberries are a GREAT source of vitamin C and manganese.

Coconut is loaded with fiber and medium-chain triglycerides (MCTs). MCTs aids in digestion and provides sustainable energy.

Pecans contain monounsaturated fat (the GOOD fat!) They are also a great source of protein and thiamin.

These are just a few of the many health benefits of these simple ingredients!

I don’t know about you, but I LOVE a bowl of oatmeal in the morning. Oats are so versatile and easy to make! Below is a flavorful and quick recipe that I whipped up this morning. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did!

INGREDIENTS:

  • 1/3 cup steel-cut oats
  • 1/2 cup fresh blueberries
  • 1/2 cup vanilla unsweetened almond milk
  • 1/4 cup unsweetened shredded coconut
  • 1 oz pecan halves

INSTRUCTIONS:

  1. Add almond milk to a sauce pan, and bring to a boil.
  2. Add oats to the sauce pan, and cook on medium-low for about 10 minutes.
  3. Meanwhile, toast your coconut shreds and pecans in the oven on 350 degrees F. (**Be sure to watch the coconut because it cooks quicker than the pecan will!).
  4. Add your toppings and enjoy!
