Low Carb Hot Chocolate Porridge

Our Low Carb cereal is the perfect hot breafast recipe for cold mornings. A blend of ground flax seeds, coconut flour, and egg make the ideal base for cocoa powder. The cereal is made rich and creamy with the addition of canned coconut milk and a sprinkling of unsweetened coconut flakes. Our Keto cereal is a great way to add more healthy fats like butter, ghee, or more canned coconut milk to fit your fat macros and keep you full all morning.

Can I add more fat to the porridge?

Yes! Feel free to add butter or ghee to your porridge. You can also mix in heavy cream or more coconut milk than the recipe suggests. The wonderful thing about this Keto hot cereal recipe is that you can adjust the amount of fat you add to fit your macros.

Can I add sweetener to the porridge?

Yes, feel free to add powdered erythritol, liquid stevia, or even more Keto maple syrup to sweeten the cereal.

What toppings can I add?

Other healthy toppings to add would be pumpkin seeds, unsweetened coconut flakes, assorted nuts, and sugar-free chocolate chips just to name a few.

Serving suggestions

To make the ultimate pairing, serve this Keto Hot Chocolate Porridge with a protein-packed side dish like our Keto Egg and Spinach in a Cup:

    I added up the carbs using the tracker and it came out lower carbs than listed (6g). And where is the chocolate?! Still tasted nice and was very filling.

        Really enjoyed this. I had mine with a few flaked almonds and sunflower seeds, and used a little sucralose for sweetening. It's really easy to make and great consistency and texture.
