5-minute VETO (Vegan Keto) Bircher

THE O.G. Version

V, GF, Sugar Free, Keto

Ingredients:

2 tbsp hemp seeds

1 tbsp chia seeds

1 tbsp flax meal

2 tbsp coconut flakes

1 tsp psyllium husk

3-4 drops of liquid stevia or ½ tsp of sugar free sweetener*

pinch of Himalayan salt

¼ tsp vanilla extract

¼ cup unsweetened homemade coconut milk*

¼ cup water

*see note

Top with:

Handful of berries (fresh or frozen)

1 tsp natural peanut butter

Sprinkle of cinnamon or cacao powder (reminds me of eating milo sprinkled on cereal)

1 tbsp coconut yoghurt - unsweetened

½ tbsp shredded coconut

2 almonds, sliced

How to make:

Add all dry ingredients to a bowl (or container for a grab and go breakfast the next day), stir together and then add the remaining wet ingredients (coco milk, water, stevia, & vanilla).

Optional step: PIMP YOUR BOWL - add the carrot cake ingredients or ZOATS ingredients - recipes in my VEGAN KETO eBook.

Stir mix together, it should be quite runny as the seeds will expand and soak up most of the liquid. You can add more water or coconut milk to adjust to your desired thickness.

Top with the topping ingredients now (or you can do this in the morning), cover and place in the fridge overnight to set.

In the morning, simply remove from fridge, check to see if it needs any extra milk, and eat (or pack with you to go!)

Note:

Sugar free sweeteners are all different in terms of potency of sweetness compared to sugar, I use enough to equal ~ the sweetness of 1 tsp of sugar/maple syrup.

For the coconut milk, I mix 1 can of coconut milk with 1 can of filtered water, shake and place into milk bottle in fridge. This is a much more economical way of utilising coconut milk as canned coconut milk tends to be thicker than other plant milks. Hence ¼ cup coconut milk used is equivalent to 2 tbsp (30mL) canned coconut milk. You can also do this with coconut cream, adding 2-4 cans filled with water. Always try to buy coconut milk that doesn’t contain added ingredients. Look for: coconut flesh, guar gum and water only.
