READY IN 5 MINUTES!
These Easy Vegan Chocolate Pudding Oats are your quick and easy answer to a dessert-y and plant-based breakfast! The inclusion of the hot cocoa packet makes them sweet and chocolatey and the coconut yogurt adds a bit of creaminess and coconut flavor. The strawberries on top round them out with fruity freshness.
Of course you don’t have to use a pre-made cocoa mix if you’d rather make your own, or if it’s more convenient. You can simply combine cocoa powder, sugar, and salt to taste!
The shredded coconut is optional, but it does add a fun boost of coconut flavor! I love this one.
If you want to try a similar non-vegan oatmeal bowl, these Chocolate Strawberry Protein Oats have a similar flavor profile, but feature greek yogurt instead of coconut, and skip the chia. (In this version, the chia seeds act as a thickener, as plant-based yogurts tend to have a different texture than dairy yogurts.)
This breakfast only takes 5 minutes to throw together, and is a great pick on busy mornings!
