Course Breakfast
Servings 4

Ingredients
  

  • 4 Mason Jars pint size
  • 1 cup steel cut oats (Organic Arrowhead Mills
  • ½ teaspoon sea salt
  • 2 cups water
  • 4 tablespoon cocoa powder
  • 4 tablespoon cacao nibs
  • 4 tablespoon slivered almonds
  • 4 tablespoon shredded unsweetened coconut
  • 4-8 teaspoon raw honey
  • 4 tablespoon MaraNatha crunchy almond butter
  • 1 cup coconut milk Canned light or full fat

Instructions
 

  • Combine the steel cut oats and salt and divide amongst the jars. Divide the cocoa powder, cacao nibs and slivered almonds between the jars and stir well. Bring the 2 cups of water to a boil and add ½ cup of water to each jar. Stir and let cool. Twist the lid on and refrigerate overnight. The next morning set the jars out to come to room temp ( they can be eaten cold if desired) and add in the coconut, honey and almond butter and stir well. Heat up the coconut milk and add ¼ cup to each jar. Stir again, taste and add more sweetener if desired and serve immediately.

Notes

A serving of steel cut oats is ¼ of a cup and we normally do ⅓ cup dry for a serving. When cooking steel cut oats the ratio is 3:1 water to oats. So for 1 cup oats you will use 3 cups water ( or milk). If you want a thinner jar of oats use ¼-1/3 c more liquid. You can also heat these up in the microwave if you want them hotter. I find leaving them at room temperature and adding in the heated up coconut milk heats it up sufficiently.
