THM:E, low carb, no sugar added, gluten/egg/dairy/nut free

Serves: 1
Ingredients
  • ½ cup old-fashioned oats (gluten free if necessary)
  • 1 cup liquid (water, unsweetened almond milk/carton coconut milk [nut free], or a combination)
  • ⅛ tsp. salt
  • 2-3 doonks THM Pure Stevia Extract Powder (a doonk is 1/32 tsp.)
  • ½ an orange, peeled and chopped
  • Small handful of fresh cranberries (thawed if frozen), chopped or whole
  • Dash of orange extract
  • Pinch of ground ginger, optional
Instructions
  1. There are a couple of ways you can do this:
  2. Mix all ingredients together the night before and refrigerate. In the morning, heat in the microwave for 3-4 minutes and enjoy warm. Or if you forget to mix it together the night before, just mix all the ingredients together and microwave in the morning (you'll just miss out on the benefits of soaking your oats overnight).
  3. *or* MY FAVORITE OPTION - Mix all the ingredients PLUS a rounded ¼ tsp. of glucomannan together the night before and refrigerate overnight. Eat cold in the morning. This version has a more pudding-like feel.
  4. *or* For more volume, increase the liquid to 1½ cups. Microwave for 4 minutes the night before. Let the oatmeal sit in the microwave for 5 minutes (omit this step for a thinner oatmeal). Refrigerate overnight and eat cold in the morning.
  5. In any of the options that call for heating the oatmeal, you can either add the orange chunks and cranberries before or after heating, depending on your preference for crunchiness.
