Savory Chia & Oat Breakfast Pudding

I know that it may sound like a strange combination, but the whole thing tastes similar to a squash risotto, and is a really nice alternative to a sweet morning combo. It makes for the perfect start on a cold day.

  • 3 cup almond milk
  • 1 cup steel cut oats
  • 1 tbsp honey OR maple syrup
  • 4 oz plain goat cheese
  • dried fruit (optional topping)
  • nuts (optional topping)
  • extra chia seeds (optional topping)

Directions

  1. To make the pudding: Place the water, cooked sweet potato, tea bags, and coconut oil, in a saucepan set over medium heat. Bring to a gentle boil, and remove from the heat. Allow the tea bags to steep, and the mixture to cool for a few minutes. Remove the tea bags, and stir in the chia seeds and honey. Let the mixture sit for at least 20 minutes (up to an hour). so that the chia seeds will swell and the "pudding" will thicken.
  2. To make the oats: Bring the water to a boil. Stir in the oats, and reduce the heat to low. Allow the oats to cook for approximately 20-25 minutes, until tender, stirring periodically. Once cooked, remove from the heat, and whisk in the honey and goat cheese, allowing the cheese to melt, and removing any lumps.
  3. To assemble the jars: Alternately layer the oats and the pudding. Serve warm, at room temperature, or cold - It's all good : )
