We worked with our nutritionists to devise this hearty Vegan Matcha Oats recipe that combines oats, apples, nuts, and matcha — four key foods that “help to lower cholesterol levels and slash the risk of heart disease.”
If you have time make this in advance — ideally the night before you wish to eat it.
Ingredients
- 1 cup (80g) rolled oats 2 tsp chia seeds1-1/2 cups (375ml) almond milk (or hazelnut, rice, or oat milk)1 tsp matcha powder2 pinches of ground cinnamon1 tsp runny honey
Topping
- 1 apple, peeled, cored, and chopped 1 tsp pumpkin seedsHandful of mixed nuts
Directions
- In a separate bowl or jar, add 1 tbsp of the almond milk to the matcha powder and whisk to make a smooth paste. Top with the rest of the milk and mix well
- Pour the matcha milk mixture over the oats, then stir in the cinnamon and honey. Cover and refrigerate overnight
- When ready to eat, transfer the oats to two bowls and top with the chopped apple, pumpkin seeds, and nuts.
Create a quick and healthy breakfast with this matcha overnight oats recipe, a vegan option that helps to lower cholesterol and the risk of heart disease.
