    Oatmeal for breakfast? How about Blueberry Coconut Oatmeal Pudding for dessert? I am tellin' ya, it'll become your ultimate favorite treat... Check it out!

    The oatmeal has a creamy-like pudding consistency with a subtle coconut flavor, it's topped with a blueberry lemon sauce, and garnished with coconut flakes. It is a dessert splurge minus the guilt! 😉

    It can be made ahead and refrigerated to enjoy the next day.

    I enjoyed mine in the afternoon with a cup of dairy-free latte! So good!

    If you feel like having dessert for breakfast, don't be shy! It is a great way to start the day with a big smile on your face. If you are in a rush, place the pudding and sauce in a mason jar and eat it while driving to work.

    Making Blueberry Coconut Oatmeal Pudding

    The process is quite simple.

    First prepare the sauce. Combine water, sugar, cornstarch, and lemon juice in a saucepan, whisking well until obtaining a homogeneous mixture.

    Add frozen blueberries and let simmer over medium-low heat, stirring carefully with a wooden spoon until sauce thickens, about 4-7 minutes. Stir in a bit more lemon juice and remove from heat.

    Next, prepare the oatmeal pudding. In a saucepan, combine oats, water, and salt. Bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce heat to medium-low and stir constantly with a pointed wooden spoon or the handle end of a wooden spoon.

    Let simmer, while stirring, until cooked (about 5-10 minutes). Remove from heat and stir in coconut extract, coconut milk, sweetener, and coconut flakes.

    Spoon into small bowls or ramekins, top with the blueberry lemon sauce, and garnish with coconut flakes. Enjoy either warm or chilled!

    See? Easy peasy! It is an explosion of flavor! Something new to make with oatmeal.

      Blueberries and lemon are such a fabulous combination. I'm wondering if this lush pudding is just another excuse to have oatmeal for breakfast!
