A creamy dreamy oatmeal bursting of delicious flavors of pistachio and chocolate. It’s packed with nutrients, fibers, vegan friendly, and gluten free too!
I’m not a person who loves snacks, but when I do, one of my favorite snacks to nibble on is, dark chocolate and light salted pistachio. This combo must be coming from heaven, really its out of this world. A crunch little salty, and rich chocolate flavor! Pistachio is one of my favorite nuts, here I made before, cookies with it . And I love to add it as topping for recipes like this polenta or this coconut oatmeal.
Pistachio butter
Pistachio is one the healthiest nuts. it has
- Has monounsaturated fatty acids that are good for your heart.
- Has good amounts of protein, fiber, vitamin E. and B6. Also, healthy fats that are of unsaturated type.
- The different colors of green and purple in pistachio are due to antioxidants content like polyphenols.
- They may make you live longer. and improve the lipid profile
It’s so easy to make the pistachio butter, you just need to have a good quality food processor. Just crush the pistachios until they turn into butter. First, just make pulses, in case the processor is not strong enough, and safer.
or you can just buy it here, but if I can make it , you can make it, and I encourage you to do so!
This is such an easy recipe to make, really what its easier than mixing oatmeal with your favorite milk, a flavor and some toppings! You can make it on the stove or use the microwave. you can add melted chocolate for extra chocolaty flavor.
