A low-carb, paleo AND vegan no oats oatmeal? Can it be true? Yes! And it’s a super delicious warm breakfast option with cinnamon and berries on top!
I created this grain free recipe about 3 days ago and ever since then I’ve been having it every single morning for breakfast. I have another paleo oatmeal recipe that is tasty and sweet, but it is not low carb since it utilizes a whole banana.
I’ve been trying to have a lower carb breakfast lately but I’m getting bored of smoothies and eggs. Since it’s getting cooler out, I thought a revised no oats oatmeal would be a great option!
This recipe can be made vegan by taking out the egg, replacing the gelatin with a vegan protein powder, replacing the honey with maple syrup and adding in 2 tbsp of ground flax instead of 1.
For the low-carb option, you can remove the honey and if you want, you can replace it with a low-carb sweetener like stevia (I like this brand–no weird additives). Without honey this no oats oatmeal has only 6 Net Carbs! With 18 grams of carbs and 12 grams of fiber. You can see the full nutrition facts at the bottom of the recipe below.
I also want to note that I used ground chia seeds in the recipe because I like the texture better, but you can also use whole chia seeds and it will still work fine!
How to Make Low-Carb No Oats Oatmeal (Paleo & Vegan):
First, if you don’t already have ground flax seeds, grind them in a coffee grinder. Combine all dry ingredients in a pot and mix.
Add the egg to the pot and beat it (omit egg step if making vegan version). Add the remaining wet ingredients to the pot and stir until combined.
Heat the mixture on the stove on medium heat continuously stirring until it thickens. This should take about 5 minutes.
Enjoy with your favorite toppings like berries, cinnamon or nuts!
