Indulge in the stimulating and satisfying properties of oatmeal with this Roasted Coconut-Sesame Oats with Cherries recipe, perfect for kickstarting a demanding day. Pittas will appreciate this nourishing breakfast, but in warmer temperatures, it's advisable to serve it cool or at room temperature to avoid aggravating the pitta energy.
Step 1
In a small saucepan, bring 1 cup oats and 3 cups almond milk to a boil.
Step 2
Turn down the heat and simmer until the almond milk is absorbed into the oats, about 15 minutes.
Step 3
In a small skillet over medium heat, dry toast 1/2 cup unsweetened coconut flakes and 1/4 cup sesame seeds until they brown, about 1 to 2 minutes.
Step 4
Remove from the heat.
Step 5
When the oatmeal is finished, top with the toasted coconut, sesame seeds, and 1 cup halved and pitted cherries and serve.
1 cup oats
3 cups almond milk
1/2 cup unsweetened coconut flakes
1/4 cup sesame seeds
1 cup cherries, halved and pitted
Vatas can substitute heavier fruits like figs or dates for the cherries.
Pittas can add extra coconut flakes or cherries for a more indulgent experience.
Kaphas can switch out the coconut flakes for cacao nibs, berries, or honey to vary the flavor profile.
