Make the Oatmeal Porridge
To make this easy oatmeal porridge recipe you’ll want to first prepare the oatmeal according to the package directions. But be sure to use plant milk instead of water for this. This ensures its creaminess pairs will with the chocolate covered strawberries.


Prepare your oats by adding plant milk to saucepan. Bring this to a boil, then add oats, half of Daily Harvest coffee + almond latte pod and maple syrup. Allow this mixture to simmer for more creaminess.
Prepare the Chocolate Covered Strawberries
While the oats are simmering begin to prepare your chocolate. You will do this by adding warm melted coconut oil , cocoa powder and the half of the Daily Harvest Coffee + Almond Latte pod. It’s important to note the coconut oil should be warm in order for the other ingredients to easily combine to create a rich and creamy sauce. Whisk together until smooth.
Make sure your strawberries have been throughout dried. Then set aside.
Note: Before dipping strawberries be sure to have a piece of parchment paper on hand so you can lay your chocolate dipper strawberries on.
Next grab strawberry by the stem (or leaves) and sip into chocolate. Then lay strawberry on parchment paper. The chocolate should begin to harden immediately. That means the coconut oil is doing its job.

Because every brand is different it’s important to check the packaging for the most accurate directions on how to cook stovetop oatmeal. That said, a general rule of thumb when cooking is to stir occasionally and cook until most of the liquid is absorbed. I don’t wait too long because I prefer my oatmeal a little bit on the “soupier” side but do what works for you!
