Instructions

In a saucepan combine the oats, oat milk, cocoa powder, coconut sugar and chia. Whisk to combine and bring to a boil on high heat. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until oats are desired consistency, 5 to 10 minutes. (They will thicken slightly as they cool).
Divide chocolate oatmeal between two bowls and top with your favourite toppings. I used peanut butter, blueberries, and chocolate chips.

Notes

Oat milk is naturally more sweet than almond milk. If using almond milk, add more coconut sugar (or maple syrup) to taste.
