Recipe by The All Natural Vegan.

Serves: 6

Ingredients:

• 2 cups steel cut oats
  
  

• 5-6 cups coconut milk (from the carton, not from the can)
  
  

• ¼ cup maple crystals
  
  

• ½ teaspoon vanilla bean powder
  
  

• ¼ cup Wilderness Poets Hazelnut Butter (plus extra for serving)
  
  

• ¼ cup chopped hazelnuts (for serving)
  
  

• Fresh fruit for serving
  
  

Instructions:

1. Cook the Steel Cut Oats:
   
   

• In a large saucepan, combine the steel cut oats, 5 cups of coconut milk, maple crystals, and vanilla bean powder. If you prefer a creamier texture, you can use up to 6 cups of coconut milk.
  
  

• Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat, then reduce the heat to a simmer. Cook for about 20-25 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the oats are tender and the mixture has thickened. If necessary, add more coconut milk to adjust the consistency.
  
  

2. Flavor the Oats:
   
   

• Once the oats are cooked, stir in the Wilderness Poets Hazelnut Butter and continue cooking for another 5 minutes to combine the flavors and create a creamy texture.
  
  

3. Serve:
   
   

• Spoon the oats into bowls. Top each serving with chopped hazelnuts, a dollop of extra hazelnut butter, and fresh fruit (such as berries, banana slices, or apple slices).
  
  

4. Enjoy:
   
   

• Serve warm for a deliciously creamy, nutty, and flavorful breakfast!
