    Chai Spiced Persimmon Oatmeal

    Breakfast

    Disclosure: This post is sponsored by The Quaker Oats Company. Thank you for supporting our work here at Food Heaven!
     
     

    What’s better than a warm bowl of oats during these cold winter mornings? We know! A warm bowl of Chai Spiced Persimmon oats. Infusing oats with spices like cinnamon, ginger, and cardamom adds a special touch to that morning meal. We paired this oatmeal with crunchy, tart pomegranate and nutritious persimmon, two fruits that are oftentimes overlooked.

    Here in California, persimmons and pomegranates are currently in season through the winter months. When enjoyed ripe, they add a delicious sweetness to any recipe! Both these fruits work beautifully with this oatmeal recipe.

     

    Now let’s talk about oats for a sec, shall we? A strong and growing body of science supports that eating oats as part of a heart healthy diet may help reduce risk factors for heart disease. Oats are one of the most convenient sources of fiber, and provide the soluble fiber beta-glucan, which may help to lower cholesterol levels, and reduce the risk for heart disease.

    Eating 3g of soluble fiber from oatmeal daily as part of a diet low in fat and cholesterol may reduce the risk of heart disease, and a serving of Quaker Old-Fashioned Oats provides about 2g. Incorporate oats into recipes throughout the day to help increase the amount of soluble fiber in your diet! Who would have thought that heart-healthy eating could be so fun and flavorful?

    Looking for a bit of inspo to help you on your health and wellness journey? Quaker has you covered. To help people get real about nutrition, including important areas like heart health, digestive health and even energy,  Quaker joined forces with Rosario Dawson to encourage people to start taking their nutrition into their own hands. Visit QuakerOats.com to see what happens when Rosario Dawson gets real with real people about their nutrition and how everyone can get started with Quaker Oats.

     
     

    Some of our favorite ways to add oats to recipes include in smoothies, when baking, and as overnight oats! What about you? Comment below and let us know!

    Okay, now for this recipe. It’s as simple as simple gets. Bring the almond milk to a boil, and add the cinnamon and ground ginger into the pot. Then add the oats and cook as per package instructions. Top with persimmon slices, pomegranate seeds, peanut butter, and maple syrup. Sprinkle the bowl with a dash of allspice, nutmeg, & cardamom, to your liking. That’s it! Sit back and enjoy your delicious bowl of oats.

    Stay warm, xo
