Love coffee? You’ll love this vegan coffee oatmeal made with chia seeds, coffee and vegan protein powder. These oats can be made as hot stovetop oatmeal or overnight oats.
Overnight Oats Method
To make these as overnight oats, add everything to a container and mix well, making sure it’s well combined and the chia seeds are all mixed in. Place in the fridge overnight. In the morning, enjoy cold with your favourite toppings.
Stovetop Method
To make these stovetop, simply add everything to a saucepan, cook until thick and enjoy! I like to use rolled oats for their thick, chewy texture but you can use quick or minute oats to reduce the cooking time.
This quick stovetop oatmeal recipe features hearty rolled oats, vegan protein powder, coffee and almond milk cooked up to thick and creamy perfection. Enjoy as is or top with fruit, nut butter and chocolate chips for a treat.
Topping Ideas
Here are some delicious topping ideas to take these to the next level:
- chocolate chips or cacao nibs
- sliced banana
- sliced strawberries
- shredded coconut
- nut butter or tahini

This was the most delicious oatmeal Iโve ever made!! Iโm recommending to all my friends. I topped it with pb2 and banana & WOW!
I’m so glad you enjoyed it, Chris! Thanks for sharing the recipe!
Looks like you are having loads of fun and that coffee, oh that coffee in your first shot, I wish I had it right now. I love coffee so much I have every appliance or utensil there is to make coffee.
The festival you went to sounds AMAZING! So do the oats ๐
omg Music Festivals are my favorite! First of all, I love concerts, I just can’t get enough (my husband can!). But when a concert gets spread over 2 days of outdoor fun than I am in heaven! Anyhow, I know that’s not the total point of this post but it’s got me all looking forward to my next show! Thank you for the recipe, it looks delicious. I do love my coffee and am half Italian but never tried LaVazza
