Use oats or your favorite breakfast grains to make this delicious breakfast porridge with sweet potatoes, creamy oatmilk and coconut flakes.
On cold mornings, we tend to crave oats that are creamy and hearty, but not too sweet. These oats (Or use any other grain you like!) are soaked overnight in Mooala oatmilk so they are rich, creamy and dairy-free. We love that this organic oatmilk has 0g of sugar, that means our breakfast won’t get super sweet! It’s also a perfect non-dairy beverage to add into coffee, baked goods, smoothies and savory dishes too.
Mooala blends their toasted oats with cinnamon and coconut cream. We used these ingredients to inspire our Oatmilk and Sweet Potato Breakfast Porridge. You can soak your oats or other grains overnight in the oatmilk and then quickly microwave them in the morning. Or, cook the oats as you normally would on the stovetop and simmer in the oatmilk instead of water.
