1 Tbs Chia Seeds + a little extra for topping

1 Tsp Turmeric Powder

1/2 Tsp Cinnamon

1/4 cup Filtered Water

1/2 tsp lemon rind (optional)

In a small pause pan on a medium heat combine the almond milk, water, oats and chia seeds + lemon rind if you choose. Stir continuously on a light bubble until the liquid absorbs and the oats are soft and creamy!

Take off the heat and stir through the turmeric powder, fresh ginger and cinnamon powder. Scoop into a bowl and top with the coconut, honey and extra chia seeds.

Enjoy while its hot!
