Golden Turmeric Oatmeal

Chelsea Colbath
A warm, comforting, turmeric-spiced bowl of oatmeal inspired by the flavors of golden milk.
TOTAL TIME: 15 minutes
Servings 2

Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup oats
  • 2 cups canned coconut milk I used a 13.5oz can plus enough water to make 2 cups
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 4 teaspoons turmeric
  • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 1/8 teaspoon black pepper about 4 grinds on a pepper mill
  • 4 medjool dates pitted and diced
  • Topping Ideas: banana slices cashew butter, hemp seeds, toasted coconut, ghee, etc.

Instructions
 

  • 1. Put all ingredients into a medium pot and bring to a boil, stirring occasionally. As soon as the oatmeal boils, turn to the lowest possible setting, cover, and let cook for 10 minutes. Stir the oatmeal once or twice during this time. If oatmeal looks too thick, add extra milk until your desired consistency has been reached.
  • 2. Transfer oatmeal into 2 bowls, add desired toppings, and serve immediately. Leftovers keep well for up for 5 days in the fridge.
