it is time to up your backcountry oatmeal breakfast game and in this video
I'm sharing with you three delicious and epic oatmeal recipes that you can
prepare at home and then bring with you out on the trails so ditch those boring
packets full of sugar and artificial flavors and give one of these a try
alright so first up is a tropical pineapple coconut oatmeal recipe you're
going to need plain instant rolled oats which I usually get from the bulk
section individual coconut oil packets dried pineapple toasted coconut chips
and freeze dried bananas start with the oatmeal I usually do about half a cup
per serving and just put that in a little plastic baggie add a handful of
freeze-dried banana slices a handful of diced dried pineapple and then take one
of your coconut oil packets leave it all packaged up like that and put it into
your baggie and then take another baggie and put a handful of those toasted
coconut chips in there I'm using a little reusable bag here and then put
the coconut chip baggie into the original bag seal that all up and you
are good to hit the trails now once you're at camp take out those coconut
chips and the coconut oil packet put those aside and then pour the rest into
your bowl get your water boiling and when you're ready pour it into the bowl
with the oats and I really like my oatmeal on the thicker side here so I
kind of just guesstimate the amount of water starting with a little bit and
adding more if I need to and the water will help hydrate those bananas and
they'll kind of break apart and make it a little bit sweet just mix this up
until it's nice and creamy and then you're gonna open your coconut oil and
add that into the bowl and the hot water will actually help melt the coconut oil
and so just keep mixing all this up until it's melted and the oatmeal will
turn super super creamy and then once you're
there take your toasted coconut chips and you'll just put those on top and
this is just a nice little crunch that really takes this oatmeal to the next
level so there you have it a nice oatmeal with tropical vibes next up we
have a dark chocolate peanut butter banana oatmeal recipe to start off we're
gonna have those same plain rolled oats some chia seeds freeze-dried banana
slices a packet of rx nut butter peanut butter and a little bit of cocoa powder
again starting with the oats scoop about half a cup into your baggie next add in
a teaspoon of good quality cocoa powder this makes it nice and rich and dark
chocolaty and then a teaspoon of chia seeds a handful of those freeze-dried
banana slices and then put your nut butter packet into the baggie seal it up
and hit the trails alright so once you're at camp take out the nut butter
packet and put that aside and then pour the rest of your bag into a bowl pour some
hot water over that and give it a good mix adding more water if you need to
some people like their oatmeal a little bit thicker like I do and some people
like it a little thinner so go with what you like that's the great thing about
this it's super customizable it will look really creamy and then knead your
peanut butter packet and drizzle that on top I tried to make this look like
really spectacular here but the drizzle did not work as well as I was thinking
just get that peanut butter in there and then give it another really good mix and
this one is just so creamy and delicious if you like the combo of peanut butter
and chocolate I think you're gonna love alright so next up is a vanilla almond
berry oatmeal recipe here's what you're gonna
need plain instant oatmeal freeze dried blueberries freeze-dried strawberries a
packet of the rx nut butter in the vanilla almond butter flavor and some
slivered almonds start with a half a cup of your rolled oats add in a handful of
freeze dried blueberries a handful of freeze-dried strawberries oh I lost one
there add in a handful of those slivered almonds and lastly your nut butter
packets seal that up and you're ready to go alright so at camp take out your nut
butter packet and put that aside and then for the rest of your baggie into a
bowl add in your hot water and just mix that up adding more water as you need to
as you can see here I've actually had to add in water a couple more times to get
it to the thickness that I usually like with my oatmeal
once everything is rehydrated add in the nut butter and for this recipe you
really want to try and find this specific one because this is where the
the vanilla flavor really comes from I'll link to it in the description below
and it's just so decadent and delicious like all the other ones this one is
super super creamy and filling will give you tons of energy for your adventures
