Without a doubt this is my new favorite breakfast! My keto friendly and low glycemic index hemp seed oatmeal recipe is thick, creamy and delicious. Most importantly, it is healthy for you too!
How can I keep something like this to myself?
Not only is it a great keto friendly, low carb breakfast option (3-4 net carbs), it is also low in sugar, dairy free and 340 calories. Did I mention it is incredible satisfying? After eating this breakfast, my appetite is satisfied well into lunch time. Furthermore, it tastes more like dessert than breakfast.
Quick & Easy to Make
Last but not least, it is quick and easy to make; from prep to bowl in about 10-12 minutes. This recipe makes 4 servings; portion to eat throughout the week. I like my oatmeal warm or cold, but you can eat it at your preferred temperature.
Toppings can vary depending on preference. I suggest for keto or low glycemic index use any type of berry, nuts and coconut flakes.
My absolute new favorite find is the Walden Farms 0 calorie Maple Walnut syrup – it is what makes this oatmeal taste like a dessert!

Hemp Seed Oatmeal Recipe:
7 or 8” sauce pot
1 cup unsweetened almond milk (or any type of nut milk will work)
¼ tsp. cinnamon (optional)
1 tsp. vanilla extract
2 tbsp. Swerve granular sweetener (Erythritol)
Pinch of salt
1 cup of almond flour (add a little extra for thicker or less for thinner consistency)
½ cup hemp seed hearts (I love Trader Joe’s brand)
2 tbsp. chia seeds
Toppings:
¼ cup berries
1 tbsp. nuts (your preference – I used pecans)
1 tbsp. coconut flakes
1-2 tbsp. Walden Farms walnut syrup
Instructions:
Add all the wet ingredients into your pot on a medium/high heat, stir with a whisk. Bring to a low boil. Add dry ingredients one at a time then stir to combine. Turn heat down to low and cook for about 5 minutes, stirring frequently to avoid burning. If you prefer a thicker oatmeal add a little more almond flour to thicken to desired consistency. Let sit for 5 minutes for chia seeds to expand. Section out into 4 servings, add your toppings and Enjoy!
