Ingredients

  • 1/4 Cup Oat Groats rinsed
  • 3 Large Dates pitted and roughly chopped
  • 2/3 Cup Milk of Choice divided (I used Hemp milk)
  • 1/4 Cup Rolled Oats
  • 2 Tbsp Raw Walnuts chopped (Soaked and Dehydrated preferred)
  • 1/2 tsp Ground Cinnamon
  • 1/2 Cup Blueberry's fresh or frozen depending on the season

Instructions

  1. In a small bowl or jar soak the oat groats and dates in 1/3 cup of milk overnight.
  2. In the morning, place the soaked oat mixture, rolled oats, and remaining milk in a small sauce pan.
  3. Over low to medium heat cook the oats until the rolled oats are soft and the liquid has been absorbed. You can add more milk if you like a thinner oatmeal.
  4. Right before the oats are done stir in the remaining ingredients and cook until the blueberry are warmed through.

Recipe Notes

If you forget to soak the oat groats overnight you can still make this recipe just add an additional 10-20 minutes cooking time for the groats to soften.
I like soaking the groats because they stay more firm in the oatmeal.
I like soaking the dates because it turns into soft, goey sweetness when they are soaked.
