I’ve been on a fake oatmeal jag again lately – something about the calendar hitting October and my brain screaming it’s Fall and you should be snuggling in for a winter hibernate despite the fact that it is still 96F and bright sunny where you live.
I may *live* in the land of Summer, but in my mind, it’s PSLs all the way down.
Gluten-free, paleo, vegetarian, vegan if you consider figs vegan
Fig + Rosemary Faux Meal
1 faux-meal base from my poorly named and now re-named No-Atmeal
1 fresh fig
1-2 Tbsp. tahini (2 would be great if your macros allow – mine did not and I would have loved a little more)
1/2-1 tsp. date molasses (same here – I went light; would have loved more)
Nut milk (enough to cover the top of your faux-meal in a thin layer – optional, but I want to believe it adds creaminess)
Halved pecans (walnuts would also work)
Slivered almonds (optional but I love the texture)
1-2 tsp. chopped fresh rosemary (I did 2 and loved the piney kinda savory taste going on)
A pinch of salt
Prepare the faux-meal like the recipe, omitting all toppers and spice. Top and spice with these ingredients instead.
Serves 1 for breakfast
