Healthy, because
Oatmeal stimulates digestion through valuable dietary fiber and satiates well. The dietary fiber beta-glucan also has a positive effect on cholesterol levels. Coconut contains medium-chain saturated fatty acids, which stimulate fat burning, and the minerals potassium and calcium.
Even smarter
This breakfast can be varied every morning: Sometimes with spelt instead of oatmeal, sometimes with almond milk instead of coconut and cow's milk. And you can also give free rein to your imagination when it comes to fruit. So this healthy dish will never be boring!
