Ingredients

  • ½ cup Oats old fashioned
  • ½ cup Cherries pitted
  • 1 cup Coconut Milk
  • ½ tablespoon Cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon Cardamom
  • 1 teaspoon Cacao Powder
  • 1 tablespoon Honey
  • ¼ cup coconut flakes

Instructions

  • Add oats, coconut milk, cacao, cinnamon, cardamom, honey and half the cherries to a glass bowl or large glass jar. Mix well with a spoon. Cover with lid or plastic saran wrap and refrigerate overnight.
  • Remove from the fridge, add reserved cherries and top with coconut flakes. Eat as is or allow to warm to room temperature.

Notes

  • This recipe was intentionally dairy-free, but you can use your liquid base of choice.
  • Regular dairy milk is perfectly suitable for this recipe, as are other nut-based milks
  • I chose honey as the sweetener in this recipe as I find it works well with the spices used, however maple syrup and agave or even brown sugar are great substitutes.
  • Either frozen or fresh cherries work fine. There is no need to defrost frozen cherries ahead of time, as this will occur during the overnight cooking process.
