Ingredients
Directions
.5 cups rolled oats (NOT instant)1.25 cups of water.25 cup of fat free half and half3 tbs egg whites1 tbs barney butter almond butter2 tbs Chia & Flax see w/ Coconut & Cocoa
lightly toast oats in the bottom of your cooking pot. After a few minutes (they start to smell nutty) add water and half and half.
Bring mixture to a boil, stirring frequently.
When almost all liquid has been absorbed, stir in egg whites, being sure to KEEP STIRRING to avoid egg white clumps.
When egg whites have been incorporated, stir in the chia/flax seed mixture to fully combine.
Remove from heat and stir in the almond butter.
The chia seeds will continue to absorb liquid - as this sits, it become a bit more gelatinous so some people may prefer this served immediately. I find it takes a good long time for me to finish this though, so its just something to consider.
