Low Carb Oatmeal

We developed this simple, refined sugar-free, allergy friendly, one-bowl gluten-free, grain-free low carb oatmeal to help us start our day off with a nutritious and satisfying breakfast. I don’t eat breakfast most morning, but Chrystal does and this keto oatmeal is one of her favorites.

It’s ready in minutes and you can top with your favorite toppings.

Yes, this low carb oatmeal is oat-free. We wanted to keep it high in protien, and moderately high in fat and leave out the carbs you get from oats.

This low carb oatmeal is one of a handful of recipes that we use coconut flour in. It’s not that we don’t like coconut flour, we just prefer to use almond flour. The coconut flour adds a nice hint of sweetness to this keto oatmeal.

Ingredients in Low Carb Oatmeal

• almond meal
• coconut flour
• ground flax-seed
• monkfruit sweetener or swerve
• chia seeds
• sea salt (salt enhances the other flavors)
• cinnamon
• water

How to make Low Carb Oatmeal

1. Using a spoon, stir together all dry the ingredients in a small serving bowl.
2. Add 1/2 cup boiling water, mix and let stand 2-3 minutes.
3. Top with your favorite toppings (or eat as-is) and enjoy!
4. If you want to cook it on the stove top, bring your water to a boil, add in your dry ingredients and continue to boil for 1 minute.

It’s really simple to make low carb oatmeal. You cook it on the stove top like you would regular oatmeal. You can also add hot water to your keto oatmeal and let it sit, like you would instant oatmeal.

Is Oatmeal Ok for Keto?

Oats are mostly carbs (with a little fiber) so they’re not considered a ketogenic food and not suitable for a ketogenic diet. We like the idea of oats but we don’t care for the extra carbs so we made a keto oatmeal. We hope you like it as much as we do.

Toppings for Low Carb Oatmeal

You can use your favorite toppings for this Keto Oatmeal. Here are some of our favorites:

• Blueberries
• Raspberries
• Sliced Almonds
• Low Carb Maple Syrup
• Toasted Coconut

Can I use cream or milk instead of water in this low carb oatmeal?

Yes, you can use heaving cream or milk in this low carb oatmeal recipe. You can also use a dairy-free milk if you need to keep it dairy-free. Bring the milk to a boil, stirring frequently, and add your dry ingredients and continue to boil for 1 minute. For the “instant” version, heat your milk to a boil, pour it over your dry ingredients, stir and let it sit for up to 5 minutes.
