Ingredients
  

  • 0.5 cups (45 g / 1.59 oz) Unsweetened Shredded Coconut
  • 2 cups (480 g / 16.9 oz) Unsweetened Almond Milk
  • 0.33 cups (30 g / 1.06 oz) Crushed Walnut Pieces
  • 0.33 cups (52 g / 1.83 oz) Toasted Flaxseeds (or flax meal)
  • 1 tbsp (14 g / 0.49 oz) Butter (grass-fed recommended)
  • 0.7 tbsp (9 g / 0.32 oz) Erythritol or Monk Fruit Sweetener
  • 1 tsp (6 g / 0.21 oz) Salt
  • Watch the Heat: Coconut and nuts burn fast. Keep the heat on medium-low and pour in the milk as soon as they become fragrant and golden to stop the cooking process.
  • Boost Your Macros: Need more fat? Swap 0.5 cups (120 ml) of almond milk for heavy cream or full-fat canned coconut milk. You can also top with a drizzle of MCT oil.
  • Customize Your Crunch: For a textural contrast, reserve half of the walnuts and sprinkle them on top after cooking instead of toasting them all.

Method
 

  1. Place a medium saucepan over medium heat and melt the 1 tbsp / 14g (0.49 oz) of butter.
  2. Add the 0. 33 cups / 30g (1.06 oz) of walnut pieces, 0. 33 cups / 52g (1.83 oz) of flaxseeds, and 1 tsp / 6g (0.21 oz) of salt.
  3. Stir continuously for 2 minutes until lightly toasted and fragrant.
  4. Add the 0. 5 cups / 45g (1.59 oz) of shredded coconut and keep mixing to ensure the mixture does not burn.
  5. Stir in the 0. 7 tbsp / 9g (0.32 oz) of sweetener, adjusting to your taste.
  6. Quickly pour in the 2 cups / 480g (16.9 oz) of almond milk.
  7. Give the mixture a final stir to combine, then immediately turn off the heat and serve warm.
  8. Let it Thicken: For a thicker, porridge-like consistency, let the cereal rest in the bowl for 3–5 minutes after cooking. The flaxseeds will absorb the liquid and expand.
