This easy vegan chocolate orange oatmeal recipe is a healthy, and delicious breakfast idea for chocoholics that is perfect for your meal prep. It tastes like a comforting bowl of warm chocolate with a burst of orange flavour.
Mix rolled oats with chia seeds, raw cacao powder, sweetener, salt and cinnamon in a saucepan and stir ingredients to evenly disperse them. Pour in almond milk or other unsweetened milk of choice and stir again.
Bring the oatmeal to a boil, then reduce heat to a simmer. Continue to cook and stir for about 10 minutes, or until the liquid has been absorbed. Stir in orange zest in the end. If you prefer your oats a little more runny, feel free to add a bit more milk as desired, or serve with a splash of milk.
Remove the cooked oatmeal from heat and serve it into bowls. Top with orange slices, orange zest, and other toppings as desired. Enjoy!
