Zucchini Oatmeal with Blackberry Syrup!

 
Good Morning,
 
Zucchini in oats? YUP! Sounds kinda weird but trust me its so good! The best part of this recipe is the blackberry Syrup! No sugar added just simply blackberries. Hope you guys like it!

Ingredients
2/3 C unsweetened almond milk
1/3 C oatmeal
1 tsp cinnamon
1/4 tsp nutmeg
Splash of almond extract

Pinch of sea salt
1/2 C grated zucchini
Handful chopped pecans
1/2 Tbsp almond butter
Blackberry "syrup"
Directions
1. In pot, combine first six ingredients and cook according to you oatmeal's package instructions.

2.Just before done (one to two mins), add the zucchini.  Stir well and cook another one to two mins.  The zucchini should add moisture, but if the oats get too dry add a little water or milk.

3.Meanwhile, place berries in microwave-proof bowl and heat for 20-25 seconds.  This makes a delicious, all-natural berry syrup!  You may want to add some sugar/syrup . . . but for my taste the berries were sweet enough without it.

4.Remove from heat and top with almond butter, berries, or other toppings.
