Gluten-Free, Vegan, Serves 4
For the overnight oats:
- 1 1/2 cups gluten-free rolled oats
- 1 1/2 cups unsweetened coconut milk
- 2 tablespoons pure maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon ground ginger
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- Pinch of salt
For the toppings:
- Chopped nuts
- Shredded coconut
- Dried cranberries or raisins
- Fresh berries or sliced banana
Directions:
In a mixing bowl, combine the gluten-free rolled oats, unsweetened coconut milk, pure maple syrup, ground ginger, ground cinnamon, ground nutmeg, and a pinch of salt. Stir well to ensure all the ingredients are well combined. Divide the oat mixture evenly among four small jars or containers with lids. Cover the jars with their lids and refrigerate them overnight, or for at least 4 hours, to allow the oats to absorb the liquid and soften.
In the morning, give the oats a good stir to ensure all the flavors are distributed evenly. Before serving, top each serving of Gingerbread Coconut Overnight Oats with your choice of chopped nuts, shredded coconut, dried cranberries or raisins, and fresh berries or sliced banana. Enjoy your creamy and flavorful Gingerbread Coconut Overnight Oats straight from the fridge or at room temperature!
