Chocolate Coffee Oatmeal Recipe
A five-minute, coffee-brewed oatmeal that tastes like dessert and works twice as hard as your morning cup.
Get a little pep in your step by starting your day with this chocolate coffee oatmeal. It's easy to make, ready in minutes, and packed with the same caffeine kick as your morning brew.
Oatmeal is a go-to breakfast for a reason: quick, filling, and pretty foolproof. We're taking it up a notch by swapping out the water for Koffee Kult coffee. Yes, really — coffee-brewed oats.
Oatmeal has a reputation for being the most boring bowl in the kitchen — plain, a little sugar, a sad pile of mush. This is the opposite of that. Chocolatey, buzzing with caffeine, and the perfect sidekick to the cup of coffee you're already drinking. Chocolate for breakfast doesn't need an excuse, but this is a pretty good one.
To make it, you'll need oats, chia seeds, freshly brewed Koffee Kult coffee, cocoa powder, milk, and your sweetener of choice. Brew the coffee first, then use it exactly the way you'd use water for regular oatmeal.
Chia seeds round things out with a bit more staying power and a boost of vitamins and minerals, while the coffee and cocoa powder both bring real antioxidant benefits to the bowl. Turns out "chocolate for breakfast" and "great way to start your day" aren't mutually exclusive.
