OATMEAL LATTÉ [VEGAN]

INGREDIENTS

TO MAKE THE OATMEAL LATTÉ:

• 1/2 cup rolled oats
• 1/2 cup water
• 1 1/2 cups coconut milk
• 3 dates, pitted and chopped
• 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon powder
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1/3 cup strong brewed coffee or 1 shot (maybe 2) espresso

TO MAKE THE OPTIONAL CHOCOLATE SAUCE:

• 1 tablespoon dairy-free chocolate or dark chocolate
  2 tablespoon coconut milk

PREPARATION

1. Combine oats and dates in a small saucepan. Cook over medium heat with 1/2 cup water and milk. Stir in the salt and cinnamon.
2. In another pan, gently boil the remaining 1 cup milk. You want to use the froth on top, if possible.
3. Whisk in the hot milk, saving some of the froth. Cook until your oatmeal is creamy. This would take just 3-4 minutes.
4. Spoon into a mug, pour the coffee on top and some of the frothy milk.
5. Sprinkle some cinnamon powder and drizzle over some chocolate sauce, if using. Enjoy warm!
6. Melt the chocolate and coconut milk together until shiny and smooth (optional).
