I prepped this last night and had no idea what a treat I was in for this morning!! I made it with some plant based milk and it sooo delicious, decadent, and creamy. Really hearty as well! A great recipe to tweak in different directions as needed. Instantly obsessed !

Very delicious. I found the serving to be too much for myself, so l'd gladly remake this one but separate it into two servings.

I have found most of the servings to be too much for me. It's hard when we're trying to calculate all the nutrients.
PUL Team - March 11, 2025, 3:16 p.m.
Hey there, Jacqui! Thanks so much for your feedback. We appreciate it as we work to improve 😊

Tasted amazing! I also added some flax and it still tasted quite nice. I was surprised how even though it was all dark chocolate, the banana’s sweetness balanced it out so it didn’t feel too healthy lol. Out of curiosity- does anyone know what the red topping is from the photo?
PUL Team - Feb. 27, 2024, 9:36 p.m.
Hey Siri, so glad that the oatmeal was enjoyed! The red in the photos are crumbled freeze-dried raspberries. We've updated the recipe to include them 😊

This is my first PUL recipe and it is absolute heaven! So easy - I just put my dry ingredients in a bowl with a lid and added my almond milk at work. Easy, quick, travel friendly and delicious! And healthy?!? A new go-to (breakfast or otherwise) for sure!

My husband hates oatmeal, but after trying this dish, he said he'd have it once a year, which is a win in my book lol Loved how chocolatey it is. I sprinkled the chocolate chips on top of the hot oat meal, and then topped that with the fruit. I really liked the texture the half-melted chips added.
I used a little bit of honey instead of the vanilla sugar. I think it's sweet enough as it is, but maybe the chocolate chips I was using weren't "dark" enough.

This is a staple at our house (especially on hard mornings) but we don't use vanilla sugar since it is sweet enough with the chocolate and banana. The kids love it!

Amsel - Dec. 27, 2023, 12:05 p.m.
I loved the different textures. I am not tempted to go for the unhealthy store bought cereal if this option is available. For the husband and kids it could use some more sweetness.

I was very pleased with this breakfast. Kept me full for hours. Added mashed banana, substituted ground flaxseed instead of chia and added Ceylon cinnamon and vanilla extract. Very good. I might add a dollop of maple syrup next time for some more added sweetness. Will for sure be making this again!

This was a delicious recipe! I used dried blueberries, vanilla bean paste to flavor it, and a few walnuts for crunch. The rest of the recipe I followed exactly and the amount of 2/3 a cup for one serving was perfect for me.

The taste is awesome but I find it very heavy. I put it in jars so that I can prepare it at work when I don’t have time to have breakfast at home. 2/3 of a portion is more than enough for me!

Very nice and easy! Love this as a quick breakfast. I used warm unsweetened soy milk for some calcium, and I didn’t have vanilla sugar so substituted for 1 tsp granulated sugar and 1/4 tsp vanilla extract. Worked great, not too sweet!

This is the perfect breakfast for me as a student who is also quite phisically active. Very nutritious, filling and delicious! I used roasted hazelnuts, added some chocolate flavoured vegan protein powder and made a bigger portion to store it in a jar.

Quick, easy and delicious breakfast! I swapped the Banana for Apple (that's what I had at home). But it is a big portion for me. So I save some for later.
