Instructions

1. Combine Dry Ingredients: In a small saucepan, whisk together the almond flour, coconut flour, flaxseed meal, chia seeds, optional psyllium husk powder, salt, and cinnamon (if using). Whisking prevents lumps.

1. Add Liquid: Pour in the 1 cup of unsweetened liquid (almond milk, coconut milk, or water). Whisk well to combine everything smoothly.

1. Heat Gently: Place the saucepan over medium heat. Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer, whisking frequently to prevent sticking and clumping, especially as it starts to thicken.

1. Simmer and Thicken: Once simmering, reduce the heat to low. Continue to cook for 3-5 minutes, stirring constantly, until the cereal has thickened to your desired consistency. Remember it will thicken slightly more upon cooling. If it becomes too thick, whisk in additional liquid (1-2 tablespoons at a time) until it reaches your preferred texture.

1. Remove from Heat & Flavor: Take the saucepan off the heat. Stir in your preferred sweetener (start small and adjust), vanilla extract, and optional butter/coconut oil/MCT oil until melted and combined.

1. Serve: Pour the hot cereal into a bowl. Add your favorite low-carb toppings and enjoy immediately!

Microwave Method (Quick Alternative):

1. Combine & Whisk: In a microwave-safe bowl (use one larger than you think you need, as it can bubble up), whisk together all dry ingredients (almond flour, coconut flour, flaxseed meal, chia seeds, optional psyllium, salt, cinnamon).

1. Add Liquid & Vanilla: Whisk in the 1 cup of liquid and the vanilla extract until smooth.

1. Microwave: Microwave on high for 60-90 seconds. Carefully remove (bowl will be hot!) and whisk well.

1. Continue Cooking: Return to the microwave and cook in 30-second intervals, whisking well after each interval, until the cereal reaches your desired thickness (usually 1-2 more intervals, for a total of 2-3 minutes).

1. Stir in Extras: Stir in sweetener to taste and optional butter/oil.

1. Serve: Add toppings and enjoy. Note: Microwave cooking times vary; watch carefully to prevent overflow.
