Chocolate Chilli Oats
Here's something to tickle your tastebuds: Chilli Chocolate Oatmeal!
Oatlings this was absolutely WONDERFUL!! The rich decadent cocoa flavour combined with the cheeky chilli kick, sweet summer strawberries and of course the thick and chewy oats themselves.... heavenly!! The recipe is: 40g rolled oats 5g cacao or cocoa powder 50g courgette (zucchini) 180ml boiling water A pinch of chilli flakes Sweetener to taste 🌶Mix the oats, cacao powder and boiling water together and leave for the oats to absorb the water. 🍫Meanwhile, grate the courgette. 🌶Once you can see the oats getting thicker, stir in the sweetener of choice and put them in the microwave for 1 minute. 🍫Take them out and stir in the courgette. Put them back in the microwave for 30s so the courgette warms and softens a little (but not too much as it releases water and makes your oats all runny!) 🌶Finally, add the pinch of chilli flakes, stir and add whatever toppings you wish! I hope you like these and let me know if you try them out!
