Ingredients
- 1 cup (80g) shredded unsweetened coconut
- 1/2 cup (120ml) full-fat coconut milk
- 1 ripe banana, mashed (about 100g)
- 1 cup (30g) fresh spinach
- 1 tablespoon spirulina powder
- 1/4 cup (60g) chia seeds
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons shredded unsweetened coconut (for topping)
- 2 tablespoons chopped almonds (for topping)
Instructions
- Prep: In a blender, combine the shredded unsweetened coconut, coconut milk, mashed banana, fresh spinach, spirulina powder, and vanilla extract. Blend until completely smooth and vibrant green. For a smoother texture, you can add a tiny splash more coconut milk if needed.
- Divide the blended mixture evenly into two small jars or bowls.
- Stir 2 tablespoons of chia seeds into each jar, making sure they are well combined with the green mixture to prevent clumping.
- Cover the jars and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, until the mixture has thickened to an "oats"-like consistency.
- Before serving, stir the "oats" again. If desired, add a tiny splash of coconut milk to reach your preferred consistency.
- Top each serving with 1 tablespoon of shredded unsweetened coconut and 1 tablespoon of chopped almonds.
