Ingredients and Substitutes

Coconut Flour – Coconut flour is a low-carb, high-fiber flour used as a keto flour in many baking recipes. Shredded Coconut – Choose unsweetened shredded coconut to avoid adding unnecessary carbohydrates. Unsweetened Almond Milk or Unsweetened Coconut Milk – As with any porridge recipe, keep in mind that the texture will change depending on how much milk you add. To get a sticky, thick porridge, reduce the amount of milk or cook the porridge longer to evaporate the liquid. Add additional milk for a silky smooth texture. Almond butter – or your favorite nut butter. If you have a nut allergy, seed butter can of course also help. Unsweetened crystal sweetener – I prefer to use erythritol, but you can also use a liquid sweetener such as allulose or unsweetened maple syrup.

Keto oatmeal recipe or coconut flour porridge, call it what you like. Solve your craving for porridge. Additionally, it accommodates all diets, including keto, vegan, paleo, and gluten-free diets.
When it comes to cooking, there is no difference between regular porridge and keto oatmeal.

Pour all ingredients into a medium saucepan.
Heat until it begins to boil, then bring to a gentle boil, then lower the heat and simmer for 2 to 3 minutes, stirring occasionally, until it thickens.
Once it reaches your desired consistency, remove it from the heat. If you prefer a creamy, thick porridge, 2 minutes is ideal. If you prefer a dry texture, continue cooking as you would regular oatmeal.
Serve warm with your favorite toppings, adding more unsweetened almond milk if desired.
Sugar-free crystal sweeteners: There are many options that are free of calories and carbohydrates. My favorite brands are Swerve, Natvia or Erythritol, Lohan Fructose, and Norbu are great alternatives to pure stevia. I don’t like its bitterness.
