Chocolate orange oats for breakfast? Why not? These chocolatey oats make the perfect breakfast for when you’re craving something sweet and need a pick me up. Combined with warm cinnamon, vanilla and zesty orange this filling breakfast is one of my favourites.

How to make chocolate orange oats
Add all ingredients (minus the toppings) to a pan, and continuously stir over a low heat.

Keep stirring the oats over low heat until all the liquid is absorbed.

Pour into a bowl, sprinkle over some zest, a few blocks of chocolate or cocoa powder, and your Vegan Chocolate Orange Oats are ready to for you to dive in!

A great recipe for those of you with a sweet tooth, who want a more exciting variation on traditional porridge (I mean, it’s basically dessert).

The toppings at the end are entirely optional, but I really like the tangy hit of zest, and how the chocolate melts into the porridge, creating a vegan bowl of goodness.
