This recipe is super simple, yet incredibly satisfying! It’s a wholesome breakfast (or anytime snack!) that’s both nutritious and delicious. I’ve always been a fan of oatmeal, but this hemp milk version is a game-changer. The hemp milk adds a lovely nutty flavor and satisfying creaminess to the oatmeal that regular milk just can’t match. Plus, it's packed with healthy fats and protein, making it a perfect fuel for a busy day. And the touch of chocolate? Well, that’s just pure deliciousness.
This recipe is incredibly adaptable to your tastes and preferences. Feel free to experiment with different types of chocolate—dark, milk, white—or even add a pinch of cinnamon or nutmeg for extra warmth. You could even add some fresh fruit like berries or banana slices for a boost of sweetness and vitamins. I've found that a touch of maple syrup is a great way to enhance the sweetness without making it cloying, but that's just my personal preference!

🍽 Ingredients
📖 Instructions
- Begin by heating your hemp milk in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Don't let it boil; you just want it gently warmed, so keep an eye on it!
- Once warm, remove the hemp milk from the heat. It shouldn't be scalding hot, just comfortably warm.
- In a small bowl, add your rolled oats. This step is super important. Don't skip it!
- Pour the warm hemp milk over the rolled oats, ensuring all the oats are well-coated with the milk. Stir gently with a whisk to combine.
- Let the mixture sit for a few minutes to allow the oats to absorb some of the milk. This makes for a creamier texture, trust me!
- If you prefer a creamier oatmeal, you can cover the bowl and let it sit for a bit longer, maybe 5-10 minutes.
- While the oats are soaking up the goodness of the hemp milk, you can prepare your chocolate. Roughly chop your chocolate into small pieces, or use chocolate shavings.
- After the oats have had sufficient time to soak (or if you skipped the soaking step), return the mixture to the saucepan. Heat gently over low heat, stirring occasionally, until the oats are cooked to your desired consistency. This will usually take around 5-7 minutes, but keep an eye on it—overcooking can make your oatmeal gummy.
- Once cooked, remove the oatmeal from the heat. It's time for the fun part!
- Stir in your chopped chocolate. The warmth of the oatmeal will melt the chocolate beautifully. Stir until smooth and creamy. Perfection!
- Pour the delicious oatmeal into your serving bowl. Add any extra toppings you desire, perhaps a sprinkle of extra chocolate or a dash of cinnamon. You know what you like, so let your imagination run wild!
- Enjoy your heartwarming bowl of oatmeal. This is the perfect breakfast, snack, or even a cozy nightcap. You deserve it!
