How To Make Paleo Oatmeal Mix | Cook Eat Paleo

I was making my no-oat paleo “instant oatmeal” for breakfast one day, and I realized it would save time to make a big batch of oatmeal mix for the week.

Since then I always have a batch made up — especially in the colder months. I love the convenience of having it ready to go in the mornings. Here’s how to make your own paleo instant oatmeal mix.

This post contains some affiliate links for your convenience. You can read my full disclosure policy here.

Paleo instant oatmeal mix

This recipe is super simple. All you have to do is mix together the dry ingredients for the paleo oatmeal recipe. Since this is a grain-free n’oatmeal, the dry ingredients do not include oats.

Here’s what you’ll need to meal prep your instant oatmeal mix:

  • almond flour – I use this one
  • unsweetened finely shredded coconut – be sure to use a fine shred like this one as the coconut is what gives this porridge it oatmeal-like texture
  • ground cinnamon
  • sea salt

Paleo Oatmeal Mix

To make your instant oatmeal, just mash half of a banana in the bottom of a cereal bowl, stir in a scoop of the oatmeal mix and some nut milk, and pop it in the microwave.

When it’s done, top your paleo almost oatmeal with all your favorite oatmeal toppings. I like fresh blueberries, chopped walnuts, and real maple syrup.

Make this oatmeal mix over the weekend and you’ll have a quick and easy hot breakfast to make at home. Or an easy portable gluten-free, dairy-free almost oatmeal breakfast to make in the microwave at work.

    So excited to try this on a cold morning. I wonder if yummy could substitute diced apples for the bananas sometimes?

      The bananas add to the oatmeal texture, so I wouldn’t leave them out. But diced apples and extra cinnamon would be a yummy topping!

      I use applesauce instead of a banana, and it’s really, really yummy.

      I haven’t tested it, but I’m guessing you would need to use less coconut flour and add more liquid. If you try it, let me know how it turns out!

    This is even better than oatmeal. I was worrying what I could use as a suitable replacement. Well, this is it! Goodbye oatmeal!

    I am wondering how much carbs are in a serving please. I’ve not tried it as get as I am reaching low carb recipes. I am still weighing up keto verses paleo and whole foods. Any insights I would be greatly appreciated.

      Shredded coconut is not the same as coconut flour. The finely shredded coconut in this recipe is what gives it the texture of oatmeal. I use this one.
