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.

This keto oatmeal is a reader favorite.

This noatmeal is ready in minutes and you can top with your favorite toppings.

Yes, this low carb oatmeal is oat-free. Some call it noatmeal.

We wanted to keep it high in protein, and moderately high in fat and leave out the carbs you get from oats.

Carbs in Oatmeal

Regular oats are high in carbs and fiber, but overall the net carbs in oatmeal are still too high for those on a keto diet.

In one cup there's a whopping 27 g of carbs in oatmeal, and 4 g of fiber, for a total of 23 net carbs in oatmeal.

Because of our love for oatmeal, and how many carbs in oatmeal, we created a nooatmeal version that's lower in carbs.

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 - You can use both almond meal or almond flour, they are interchangeable in this recipe.

Coconut flour - A sweet, nutty flavor that goes a long way and is filling.

Ground flax-seed - Adds flavor, fiber, and texture.

Sweetener - We like our low carb oatmeal sweet. You can add as much or as little as you like.

Chia seeds - A super food and super delicious in noatmeal. Chia seeds absorb some of the liquid ingredients and they add nutrients.

Sea salt - Salt enhances the other flavors. You can leave it out if you like, but we recommend adding it.

Cinnamon - For flavor and sweetness.

Water - The main liquid ingredient that pulls it all together.

How to make Low Carb Oatmeal

1. Using a spoon, stir together all dry the ingredients in a small serving bowl.
2. Add ½ 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, a.k.a noatmeal. 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, also known as noatmeal.

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 - Blueberries are low in carb and they add lots of flavor to noatmeal, with a touch of sweetness.

Raspberries - Raspberries are also great in keto oatmeal. They are super low in carbs and they add flavor and texture. They're not too sweet.

Sliced Almonds - We love adding a little crunch to our keto oatmeal. Sliced almonds are perfect for sprinkling on top.

Low Carb Maple Syrup - Who doesn't love maple flavored keto oatmeal? We do. Lakanto makes a great sugar-free keto friendly maple flavored syrup.

Toasted Coconut - Coconut is crunchy, a little sweet, and nutty in flavor. It's great for adding texture and substance to your keto oatmeal.

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.
