5 Minute No Oat Oatmeal

I’ve been loving this oatless oatmeal recipe, and have been making it on repeat for weeks, with various toppings & mix-ins. It's a great breakfast for those looking to reduce carbs, increase protein, or just to find an alternative to oatmeal. BONUS: it takes less than 5 minutes to make!!


This recipe will make 2-3 servings (depending on what toppings/mix-ins/how much additional protein you add).


No Oat Oatmeal:

  • 3tbsp desiccated coconut (unsweetened)

  • 3tbsp flax meal

  • 3tbsp almond flour

  • 3tbsp chia seeds

  • 3tbsp hemp hearts

  • 3tbsp sweetener of choice, use your fav sugar substitute for keto/low carb. I’ve been loving allulose [it’s a newish natural “rare sugar” that acts like a sugar substitute (our bodies don’t break it down or absorb it], and is also a pre-biotic fibre for happy gut bacteria)

  • Pinch of sea salt

  • 1cup water


  1. Combine in medium sauce pan and heat just until it comes to a boil, and that’s it!! It’s ready in less than 5 minutes.

  2. Divide into bowls or jars, add some toppings and/or mix-ins of choice (I love it with almond butter and blueberries, or add some cocao powder for a yummy chocolate version!)

  3. And I also sometimes like to amp up the protein by adding a half serving of protein powder* and/or a 1/2c of yogurt (this is when you I would divide it into 3 servings instead of 2, since the added protein will fill you up).


*Depending on your protein powder, you may need to add some additional water (unless you want it super thick in consistency). A whey protein powder would need less added water, while a vegan/pea protein type powder would need more water.
