A hearty bowl of oats is the typical breakfast of choice in our home. They started off pretty plain but over the years we have certainly taken our standard bowl and created a powerhouse of nutrition!
You see, my son had a texture thing and would not eat any of the nuts and seeds that I added to his oat bowl so I decided to grind them and it has been a hit since then!
I have been asked by family and friends to share how we make our oats. I decided to add it to our site so that anyone can access this simple, easy to make, nutritious breakfast bowl.
With oats as a base, we add nuts and seeds, honey, butter, dried fruit and/or fresh fruit.
This recipe is such a great bowl for yourself and/or the littles, a delicious and nutritious, satisfying start to a busy day at work or school.
If you have extras, simply store it in an airtight container in the fridge for 3-4 days. Do not add the “add-ins” until you are ready to eat them.

Ingredients
- 3 cups water

- 1/4 cup hempseeds
- 1/4 cup chiaseeds
- butter
- honey
- bananas
- blueberries
- strawberries
- raisins
- cranberries
- dried coconut
- milk of choice (cools down a hot bowl)

Oats
Ground Nut Blend
Toppings (optional)
Directions
Rinse and cook the oats as directed on the package (mine is 3 cups of water, 1 cup of oats and an inch of sea salt).
While the oats are cooking, grind the nuts in a blender or spice grinder. Be sure not to over grind or they will turn into a nutbutter. add the hempseeds and chia seeds to the ground nut mix. Set aside.
Once the oats are done cooking, portion them into individual bowls. Add 1-2 tablespoons of the nut mix, honey, butter, and other toppings you wish to use.
For the kids, I prepare the toppings and allow them to create their own bowls (after I have stirred in the nut mix of course).
You will have extra ground nuts leftover, store them in a sealed container in the fridge. Use within 1 week.
Enjoy!!!
