I like oatmeal. 

Always have, always will.

Ashely like oatmeal. And if Ashley likes it, then it’s obviously good.

But why do serving sizes have to be so small? I want a nice big bowl of yummy oats in the morning without enough calories to sink a ship. Is that too much to ask?

I don’t think so.

So after months and months of oatmeal breakfast trial, I bring you the perfect bowl.

Our magical serving size increasing ingredients? Coconut flour and wheat bran.

Coconut flour is so absorbent that it makes the oats thick, hearty, and delicious all while  creating a huge potion without a lot of calories.

Wheat bran is also adds volume and texture for minimal caloric impact, as well.

If you already ate breakfast, be prepared to make it again.

But it’s all good. Remember, this is healthy.

Bottomless Stovetop Oats (Low Calorie, Vegan) 

 

This makes a ginormous serving (about 2 cups!) for only around 130 calories. If you want a more substantial breakfast, just make an even larger serving and/or go crazy wit toppings. You’re so worth it.

Isngredients

1T+2t coconut flour

3T wheat bran (use oat bran for gluten free, but will not be as low cal)

1/4c. oats (rolled or insant both work great, use gluten free oats for gluten free)

1c. unsweetend almond milk (or milk of choice)

1c. water

additional add-ins or sweeteners of choice

Put the oats, wheat bran and 1T coconut flour in a pot over medium high heat.

Cook until slightly browned, about a minute.

 

Now add your almond milk and water…

… and bring it to a boil over high heat. Once boiling, give it a stir and add remaining 2t of coconut flour. Keep stirring until thick.

Don’t burn your tongue.

I sweeten with a packet of Nunaturals stevia and go to town.

Enjoy!

  2. Aaw, thanks. One of my pet peeves is tiny portions but I'm not one of those people that can eat buckets and buckets of food without gaining weight. Thank you so much for reading! ;)

  3. i've had wheat bran for awhile and never knew what to do with it. then i saw your recipe and decided to give it a try. i just finished my bowl and it was fantastic!! i've never tried toasting my oats before and it gave it a nice flavor. i used peanut flour instead of coconut and added in some dark chocolate coco powder, salt, packet of stevia and cinnamon. YUM! Thanks for the recipe.

    • This just totally made my day! I don't think anything puts a smile on my face quite like when someone makes one of my recipe, and, well, likes it. Thank you! I love the peanut flour idea! I'm still trying to jump on the online ordering bandwagon, but peanut flour is SO worth it. Where do you go to buy it?

  5. Officially obsessed. . .my new favorite breakfast! I have been wanting to make this recipe for months now and with mere minutes to spare this morning without being late I dove in and went for it- YUM!!!! Mixed in blueberries, pomegranate and a little maple syrup, I think more combos to come in the future! ~ Courtney

    • Thank you so much for giving this recipe a shot, Jordan! I'm sorry that it's giving you trouble. I recommend adding a tad bit more of coconut flour/bran, slowly, until the mixture reaches your desired consistency! If that doesn't seem to take, adding a bit of arrowroot or similar thickener could help these oats flourish. Adding some flax to the final product would also help sop up any excess liquid! Please let us know how your next batch goes:-)

      • Ended up tossing in a little more coconut flour and some chia seeds, absolutely did the trick :) Thanks so much for the recipe and for responding so quickly! I went with a cookie dough style flavoring and I can tell I'm going to be making this again and again (and the same with all of your other recipes I've tried, especially the bagels).

        • Woohoo-I'm glad that the second time was the charm! Your seasoning style sounds scrumptious, Jordan! One of the awesome aspects of this recipe is its endless flavoring possibilities. Thank you for trying these oats again! I'm happy to respond to your comments; leave as many as you please:-)

  7. Hi! I just came across your website and have been browsing it for-who knows how long?! Anyways, I love your idea for this recipe, but I was just curious since sometimes the morning can be quite a rush, if you knew of any other methods to cook this? (Microwaving, crockpot, etc)

  10. Hello! I'd love to make this, just confused about the measurements. Does the "T" stand for tablespoon and "c" for cup?

    • Hi Tayla! So sorry for the confusing measurements on the very old recipes on my blog. T is tablespoon and c is cup. t also means teaspoon. Hope that helps!
