Coffee Coconut Refrigerator Chia Oats {Dairy, Gluten & Sugar Free}
Coffee Coconut Chia oats makes for a superfood breakfast with a morning kick start!
Coffee combined into breakfast that’s dairy, sugar and gluten free! Doesn’t get any better in my book. Oh wait it does, how about make once, no cooking required and eat twice, HA!! Even better right?!!
Refrigerator oats may never have been on your menu before and maybe you think cold oats won’t work for you, but you gotta try this at least once before deciding folks. It’s a super simple way to enjoy oats, especially in the warmer months of the year. When I was asked to sample some new coffee for Keurig Green Mountain, I jumped at the chance. As you know I am a coffee lover!

Now on to my new Coconut Inspired Recipe…..
Brenda’s Recipe Tidbits:
- You can use vanilla liquid stevia if you don’t have coconut, but I highly recommend the coconut flavor since it pairs so well with the coffee. I purchase through iherb.com and my discount code is YAJ035.
- I think you could use quick oats although the rolled oats will keep the mixture less mushy, unless you like mushy. 🙂
- Do not eliminate the chia seeds as that is needed to gel the mixture overnight.
- You could sub the coconut milk for any other milk of choice.
- You can use any coffee you like, but obviously the flavor my combo provides is quite amazing…… just saying. 🙂

I love spring. Its like a fresh new start.
I love the flowers and I get to wear my spring dresses and skirts.
To be outside before the bugs take over and walking with my dog.
My favorite things about spring are all the fresh smells … all the new buds blossoming and cool warm breezes …can’t wait to drive with the windows wide open again.
My favorite thing about spring is being able to enjoy the outdoors again!
I love spring and all the wonderful flavored coffees!
I love seeing tulips come up, they are so beautiful! It also feels like a time to be refreshed. The time has come – we are finally be done with the cold winter months!
My favorite thing about Spring is the warm sunshine, and not having to bundle the kids up so much!
Springs flowers, birds chirping, and a warm cup of coffee. That is Spring!!
My favorite thing about spring is seeing all the beautiful flowers & new life!!
The first day of Spring also marks my (our) wedding anniversary! New beginnings—fresh start—celebrating God’s goodness to our life!
I love going for walks outside with my husband and puppy!!
I love the crisp mornings, the anticipation as the tulips are popping up out of the dirt, sitting at my son’s baseball games, and celebrating Easter!
I am slowly going from bad habits to good habits when it comes to my health. I grew up with the bad habits and now that I am in my 50s, its a hard habit to break. So, as I read your page and other similar pages, I am learning how to become better in health. I have never used chia seeds or quinoa or many of the other things that I see that are better for your health. I’m looking for a healthier me. 😀
Getting the kids outside.
The cool moist morning, they are ideal for running. No wheezing from the freezing, no having to thaw out after my run. I love spring mornings when it’s still quiet and dark out. I can hear and see Spring without all the craziness of life.
I look forward to trying this rec. it looks amazing!
My favorite part of spring is when the cherry blossom trees bloom and the streets are covered in pink 🙂 ♥
Here in Florida, Spring is the calm before the long Summer “storm” of heat we get here!
My favorite thing about spring is waking up to birds chirping and the sun shining on my face =)
The newness – and not having the toilet seat be so cold :)!
I love seeing the spring flowers bloom and the trees turn green again!
Spring is raindrops and puddles, cool breezes and bright skies. Spring brings my birthday and new beginnings. I love Spring.
I love it when my sister brings her Keurig to Maine in the Summer…We all have different coffee tastes and it keeps everyone happy. I am a one cup decaf drinker and it would be lovely to have the convenience of having that one cup a day. My teens liker to make mochas and my husband drinks 3 cups every morning.
I didn’t follow the directions very well. My favorite thing about Spring is being outside on a sunny day and not being cold…No gloves, scarf or heavy jacket! Happy Spring…We have snow and ice in New England!
We just made chia oats a couple of weeks ago for the first time. Quite delicious! Now it’s time to try out your recipe…it looks delicious! Thanks for sharing!!
