Description
A delicious and healthy hot cereal alternative for those following a keto diet.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 large egg
- 2 tablespoons hemp hearts
- 1 tablespoon ground flaxseed
- 1 tablespoon chia seeds
- 1 tablespoon unsweetened shredded coconut
- 2 tablespoons unsweetened almond milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
- Pinch of salt
- 1–2 teaspoons monk fruit or erythritol sweetener (optional)
Instructions
- In a small bowl, whisk the egg until smooth.
- Add hemp hearts, ground flaxseed, chia seeds, shredded coconut, almond milk, vanilla, cinnamon, salt, and sweetener (if using). Mix well.
- Grease a non-stick skillet with a little butter or coconut oil. Warm over medium heat.
- Pour the mixture into the skillet. Stir gently as it cooks, breaking it up into soft curds, like scrambled eggs. Cook for 2–3 minutes, until thickened.
- Serve warm. Top with a dollop of full-fat Greek yogurt, a few raspberries, a spoonful of almond butter, or crushed pecans (optional).
Notes
- For a sweeter version, mix in keto maple syrup or a touch of cinnamon stevia after cooking.
- Swap almond milk for canned coconut milk for a creamier, richer texture.
