Cinnamon Vanilla N’Oatmeal

1/2 cup unsweetened coconut flakes

1/4 cup raw pecans

1/4 cup raw walnuts

1/4 cup raw almonds

1/4 cup raw pumpkin seeds

1 cup canned full-fat coconut milk

2 teaspoons raw honey

1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Toppings (optional)

Fresh fruit

Dried fruit, such as raisins or unsweetened dried cherries

Canned full-fat coconut milk

 

Place the coconut flakes, pecans, walnuts, almonds, and pumpkin seeds in a food processor and pulse until coarsely ground, stopping before the mixture breaks down into a powder. Place a medium saucepan over medium heat and add the nut mixture. Slowly pour the coconut milk into the pan and stir. Cook, continuing to regularly stir as the mixture begins to bubble, until it starts to thicken, 4 to 5 minutes. When the mixture has reached your desired consistency, add the honey, vanilla, and cinnamon and stir. Remove the pan from the heat. Transfer the n’oatmeal to a bowl and serve warm with your toppings of choice.  Prep ahead: Make the ground nut mixture in bulk ahead of time and store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
