Traditional oatmeal is high in carbohydrates, and doesn't fit easily into a low carb lifestyle - if at all. Today we test two keto oatmeal recipes to find out if its possible to replicate the taste and texture of oatmeal without the huge carb hit. One option is a traditional stovetop oatmeal recipe, and the other is a warm baked oatmeal dish that cooks and rises in the oven. Are either of these low carb oatmeal recipes as good as traditional oats and all the carbs and sugars that come along with it?

Yay, Wes! I am delighted you liked mine. "The butter, the BUTTER!" 😂 I am going to share your video on my FB page and tag you. Thanks so much.

I really like the way you open your blog...not many people can show excitement over oatmeal. "Hey, y'all!"

I used to love Cream of Wheat. Now I make Cream of Flax. 1/3 cup ricotta 1 egg, whisked 1/6 cup heavy cream Heat over medium until it just starts to thicken. Add 1 tablespoon flax meal, sweetener, and butter. 😋

The second one looks like an old favorite of mine, Malto Meal.

I make both recipes on a regular basis. I prep the stovetop oatmeal in small individual bags for my 15 yr old daughter. She makes it every morning before school. She’ll top it with greek yogurt, almonds and fruit fruit.

Love baked alternative oatmeal! ❤ Wholesome Yum does a pretty good alternative oatmeal too. I really like All Day I Dream About Food recipes, I've made quite a few of her recipes. 😊

My Favorite Recipe: 2 TBSP Flax Meal 2 TBSP Chia Seeds 2 TBSP Peanut Butter 2 TBSP Butter 1/3rd Cup hot/boiling water Cinnamon to preference Sweetener to preference Add all ingredients except water to a bowl, and then add the water and mix well. It will stick with you all morning it is so filling, and it can be made very quickly.

Thomas Delauer(?sp) has a good one using hemp hearts & walnuts. Sorry I don’t have a link. Great video, thanks!

I find the all day i dream about food oatmeal is better when you grind the almonds and coconut a bit smaller. One of my all time faves & very delicious dish and reheats nicely the day after.

You need to add some butter, cream and zero-sugar maple syrup to the hemp heart oatmeal, then it is superb.

Thanks for your honesty, hard work, and openness especially about the good that occasional therapy can accomplish. Wes, I even appreciate your good grammar. Lol. You and I might be the last to say things like "these are they." Love you, dear. "It's a good day to have a good day." 😊

I have been making ADIDAF's baked oatmeal for years, It is so good! As for the stove top oatmeal I didn't have chia seeds so I just omitted them ( added 1/4 t of xanthum gum for thickness) and have made this several times and love it. And now that you say it feels/tastes slimy I will NEVER put them in!

I was on Keto for a year and a half successfully but Oatmeal was the one thing that I just couldn’t replicate and missed so much. I went off because I let my life stress completely derail me, but 5 years later and I am back on and halfway through my first month. Love your videos! These are very motivating for me as I am struggling through the sugar withdrawal process and getting used to being the only person in my house who eats Keto while everyone around me is eating all the junk I used to eat.

I loved oatmeal back in the day. I have hemp hearts! I love Carolyn Ketchum recipes. I see warm cereal in my future.

I made another recipe for the stove top cereal that had the chia seeds in it, but I didn’t have any and left them out, and the cereal was pretty good. I would say leave the chia seeds out and see if you like it. The baked one looks really good though.

I miss oatmeal too. Used to eat it almost every day during the winter. KetoFocus has a good recipe for "oatmeal". It has Hemp Hearts, Golden Flaxseed meal, Chia seeds, Collagen and Allulose. Recipe is for one serving but I bumped it up to 6 and keep it in a quart jar in the fridge. Nuke 1/3 cup with a half cup of milk of your chioce and it comes out the texture of Cream of Wheat. Not oatmeal but I really like it and it fills the space left by oatmeal.

I've been using the recipe from healthy sweet eats, very similar to the sweet as honey recipe but no almond butter. I actually mix several 8 oz jars of the dry ingredients, went so far as to get heavy cream powder, vanilla powder and 100% monkfruit powder so all I have to add is hot water. It can also be used as overnight oats. Makes it easy to take anywhere and have a low carb meal that sticks with me for hours. Love my "noatmeal", hot in the colder months, cold (overnight oats) in the summer. Topped with a dollop of peanut butter and a few Bake Believe chocolate chips, or topped with fresh berries, it is soooo yummy! My only gripe is that EVERY low carb version has coconut. I intensely dislike the texture of coconut. I guess not really a gripe, I just omit it and add a little more of the hemp hearts 😂. I should add that I always used steel cut oats rather than rolled oats when I ate oatmeal, so the consistency was really different from traditional oatmeal. Probably why I like hemp heart versions 🤷🏼‍♀️.

I made the baked oatmeal version and I give this recipe an OMG review!!! It came out so darn good!!! I had the same reaction as you when I first tasted it. It even tastes great cold out of the refrigerator. Highly recommend the baked version. It is so delicious! Love your energy and your videos! 👍❤️

I’ve been eating the hemp hearts version, taking out the chia seeds, and less flax meal too. I love it! But after watching this video, I’m thinking why not use some of each recipe to get a better texture. 🤔 I have also started wondering if you could possibly make Cajun style shrimp and grits with hemp hearts.

I love the hemp heart recipe!!! I usually add a few berries

I miss oatmeal but like you, I think it was all the toppings. 😊

I have the same issue with chia seeds.. there’s a fine line between enough and too much.. in my opinion. I absolutely love your approach. You are MY rock star!!❤️👍

Usually we agree on recipies, I really like Sweet as Honey's oatmeal. Thanks for the video. I'm 4 months in on my journey and busy, I love your battles. You really save me browsing time looking for new good recipies. Thank you so much.

I have tried Carolyn's "oatmeal" and it is good, but I found it VERY rich. I have not made it again, but when I do, I will cut back the butter by at least half. But it was a good substitute when my family is having oats for breakfast. I want to try the hemp seed oatmeal that the Keto Twins recently tested. Looks like a better version of the 2nd recipe you tested today.

I made the baked one all this spring, put a little less hwc if your traveling and want "bars" amazing!!😊

Everything Caroline does is good but another good one was made by keto focus and tweaked by Beat Diabetes and I tried and it is good!

For folks with tree nut allergies, sweet lupin (from Australia) comes in flake form to play with as a "cereal" or porridge. It still is in the legume family but most people can use it.

Carolyn's recipes are generally an Eleven out of Ten! I love jucy Ga peaches and cantelope on my cereal but wow what a spike they give me!

I love recipes from All Day I Dream About Food. I was hesitant but I made her zucchini bread recipe using Victoria's new flour with Bamboo fiber. It was really good.

I just bought your cookbook! Go you! I started watching you from the very beginning. You’re not only a great cook, but your precious, loving spirit is palpable. You love what you do and it shows. You deserve all the success “this crazy [world] has to offer,” Wes! Keep up the great work!

I just bought some hemp hearts and have been looking for recipes to use it up. Caroline's version is a winner winner - but I haven't met a Caroline recipe I didn't like.

I put some sugar free chocolate chips on the baked oatmeal when it comes out of the oven. Spread the melted chocolate, cool, and refrigerate. Cut into bars for a great dessert.

I was hoping you were including an alldayidreamaboutfood recipe. More like a granola but the one I really liked was the crisp topping to the keto rhubarb crisp.

I had saved the first recipe from her site before but hadn’t tried it yet. I will definitely buy the ingredients now to make. I will have to split up the servings after cooking because I would definitely have issues with portioning. Yum. I agree with you about hemp seeds and slimey.

Love this channel and you! Just wanted to show you a little love, lol. I have never been a fan of oatmeal. I have found that our tastes are very similar, it must be a “southern “ thing, lol. Keep up the great work!

The first one intrigued me I'd like to make it without the .milk,and try to make granola bars. I'd add dried zucchini bits and apple extract.

I love your honesty! “If I was starving”…I am with you, slimy doesn’t work for me. Thank you for your hard work! ❤

Does anyone else enjoy savory oatmeal? Skip the sweeteners and add some shredded cheese and nutritional yeast flakes. Drizzle with hot chili oil. A fave of mine.

Hello, I feel like the two key ingredients of my go to "oatmeal" didn't get a chance to truly shine in the Sweet as Honey recipe. It's hemp hearts (for the chunkiness) and ground flax seed (for the gooeyness). My recipe: I take 15 g of almond flour, 15 g of hemp hearts, 10 g whey protein, 10-15 g sweetener, 8 g flax flour (mine is very finely ground and more absorbent than regular ground flax seeds, but I'm sure a bit more of those would work just as great) and a little salt. I mix it together, pour 130 g of boiling water over it (I go by weight not volume since 1 ml = 1 g and I can just keep the bowl on the scale) and stir, add more water as needed to get to preferred thickness. Vanilla extract is optional. I let a slice of butter melt on top (sometimes with my microwave's help) and sprinkle with cinnamon. With the butter it should be around 350 kcal and 4 g net carbs. I haven't had oatmeal in a long time but the consistency is similarly gooey, I think. It's certainly not slimey and everything is customizable. I haven't tried any of the baked "oatmeal" recipes and it does look great, so maybe it beats mine by a landslide, but I like how easy mine is and that it's one portion. Thank you for another great video, Wes. PS: If you ever try my version, let me know, if it worked for you. To anyone, who read this far: 🥰

I would love it if you would taste test Oatmeal made with Lupine Flakes. The only creator that has made it is Keto Dad.

Carolyn is so consistent! TFS.

I don't even like regular oatmeal but clicked on this video right away! I so love you and your videos Wes! Thank you for all that you do! ❤

Carolyn’s recipe looks fabulous! 💋🧚🏻‍♀️❤️🇺🇸

I use Macadamia Nut Flour instead of Almonds & Shredded Coconut. Also Macadamia Milk in the carton instead of water. Lower in Oxalate. Love Non-Oatmeal in the cooler months. Can be baked into a muffin too. Love your Videos Wes!!❤

I've been meaning to try the baked one for ever but just kept postponing...you just made me decide to make it happen! Thanks Wes ❤

Sprouted buckwheat is a great sub for cold cereal. I’ll be trying it for oat substitute. Not low-carb, tho. 😮 ❤️🍀

Hi Wes looking super great as always There is just something so very comforting about oatmeal Memories of warm wood burning stoves Snow gently falling The warm Presence of our Moms and Grandmas and the wonderful smell of cinnamon in the air Thank you Wes

Can’t wait to get paid so I can get the cookbook! Need it! Especially since I’ve been subbed for years and finally jumped back on the keto wagon

Oh, Wes, I didn’t know fauxtmeal could be so amusing, thanks so much for the giggles 🤭 great stuff. “I wrote a cookbook once” Lol Btw I have your cookbook and it is awesome!

I just learned my chia seeds tasted fishy because they were expired. I'm so glad I found this out because I love using chia and was really confused on why some batches tasted gross! THANKS SO MUCH for this video. Extremely helpful! 🙂

I am always looking for your new videos and so excited when you bring us a new one. Love your channel and your honesty ❤️ Much love

Hemp hearts also make a great salad topper.

SOOO GREAT to see You regularly Wesley!! You are such a Keto treasure! My days are WAY brighter when I see Your face!! Add to that, You last few bids have featured some of my Favorite vloggers!! WOW! So happy You are feeling & looking better. Are You able to stay in this place for awhile? Do You think all those moves got You down a bit?? Sending prayers & More blessings for You & Yours!!

I LURV oatmeal, 🤤 and also miss it so! Heavy cream and butter, was my topping. ❤️🍀

Thank you, Wes. Big fan of hemp hearts. I’ll try both of these-will tweak the stovetop ratio to have less chia, and would prefer mine a lot wetter (thinking Fairlife milk…). Also, I’d absolutely add chopped toasted pecans. Ok, now I want noatmeal. (BTW, have you seen the recent hemp hearts wild rice pilaf video from the Keto Twins? Tried it yesterday and was blown away.)

He Wes. You’re looking phenomenal! I like to use either crushed/chopped walnuts boiled as a substitute for oats or pecans and even a blend of them. A little bit of minced dried fruit helps with the texture as well.

Carolyn is just the best! This recipe is staple in my diet for a while now. It’s the most that I redone time over time again and again.

I'm so pleased I found your channel. It is so helpful to me in discovering keto recipes that I can prepare. I haven't switched to low carb keto for weight control, it is because I was pre-diabetic according to my lab work. Watching these videos helps me to avoid some of these hidden carbs in foods I wouldn't think had them. Thanks so much!

I've been trying to make a lot of trials to make keto milk chocolate and would love to watch you making a battle of recipes. I tried some with nut butter, coconut milk powder and also with heavy cream, and it would be interesting to watch you try some recipes! Love your work and already made some recipes guided by your recommendations!

I love watching your recipe testing videos. I had wondered about Victoria’s recipe for the flour with bamboo fiber and if it was a good purchase. It is kind of expensive. You also did the noodle one from Keto Asian Flavors. I really want to try it now after watching your review and others views. I am wondering if for this recipe if you could use oat fiber to make oatmeal? According to Victoria it has zero or very low carb. I believe it is an alternative in her flour recipe if you can’t get bamboo fiber. If so that would be a game changer to have a type of oatmeal using oat fiber. Just a thought. Thank you for all your hard work!

Oh my goodness that brief music at 6 minutes and 10 seconds sounded like the dating game music. And that music I heard over 50 years ago.

Doctoring up oatmeal is how I eat it normally: cinnamon, nutmeg, vanilla and butter ( need to find a sugar substitute) I’ll definitely try this 🥰

You’re looking quite dapper Wess. Your weight loss is apparent ❤

I used a modified version of All day I dream about food. When I serve it I add vegan protein milk, and strawberries …perfect! I also put it in the food processor to get a uniform size.

I need checkout Carolyn's recipes. Love a good new breakfast idea

Thank you Wesley. Yum, I love oatmeal and toast.

You’ve been a true inspiration, thank you 🙏

Now this looks delicious thanks Wes

My keto kitchen has a warm porridge recipe that is very good. I did add my own toppings

I love Carolyn’s recipe, and this reminds me to make some!

Thanks for your testing and frankness - I like chia, but it sounded like a lot to me, too

The baked dish looks delicious. Will try when weather is cooler ❤

Wes I'd like see you doing a video on coconut replacement for those who have coconut allergies please

Excellent video Wes, LOL I love the expressions that match your impressions 😀

HFLC dropped out of my RU-vid feed at some point. Haven't been here in a while. You're looking great, Wes! Love the ADIDAF oatmeal!!!

In my most humbled opinion… it’s the ground Flax Seeds. My first thought was ohhh that’s a lot of ground flax…. It always slimes up with cooking so I use it in Tsp instead of TB for Cereals.

I shared this with my mom, hoping hoping this will continue to help her stay LowCarb! Thank you!!

Long time subscriber, first time viewer. I see that I’ve been missing out on great content! Great video.

Howdy Wes. I appreciate your work on he channel. I'm specially appreciative of your approach, highlighting one food using two different recipes. I really like that you direct folks to the creator's website instead of giving the ingredient measurements on yours. These folks do deserve our traffic and a little love for all that they do for us ketoholics. All the best to you and yours.

Carolyn's recipes are the best! Have yet to have a dessert or meal of hers. ❤

You crack me up with your facial expressions! Even if you didn't say anything I would know what you were thinking, but when you described the second oatmeal as "slimy" I just had to laugh out loud! Thanks for your honesty in tasting these recipes! Oh, and you are looking very good these days!

My favorite oatmeal is 1 cup of HWC or almond milk or coconut milk or a 50/50 blend and then 1 T hemp seed, 1 T sunflower seeds, 1 T chia seeds, 1 T golden ground flax. Heat over the stove (will thicken and thicken even more when you take it over the stove and cools. Top with butter and pecans. Freakin’ awesome.

I have made Carolyn's Oatmeal before, loved it!!

I’ve been trying to decide whether to make “fauxtmeal” (or as you called it “warm cereal”) since last winter. 😵‍💫 None of the recipes appealed to me - until now. I’m thinking that I may try using ramekins instead. I would probably have to cut the baking time a bit, but it would look prettier at breakfast. Thanks for your light-hearted approach to cooking (and eating). I enjoy watching you in the kitchen - so entertaining as well as enlightening! 🫶🏼

Wesley!!!!❤❤ Loves me some oatmeal!!! TY👍

If you’ve never freshly ground your cinnamon from sticks, you’re missing phenomenal cinnamon! ❤️🍀

Have you seen the updated egg white bread recipe from Indigo Nili? It has more ingredients but the frozen butter makes it closer to real bread.

I haven't watched any of your videod in about a year and this popped up, you look amazing! 🎉

You look fantastic!!

I love every recipe I’ve had from “All Day I Dream About Food”. Awesome low carb cook book. I haven’t had the “oatmeal “ looks yummy. The 2nd one. I’d have to try.

Wes! Can you do a keto kahlua cake battle next please?? My boyfriend's birthday is coming very soon, and I'd love to know what a good keto kahlua cake recipe is!

I feel like you read my mind! I just pulled up these exact recipes to try! I appreciate your reviews. Love all your videos!

Love your honest opinion.

I have definitely seen the change in you. I am so proud of you!

Love watching you and trust your thoughts on recipes.

I use Heavy cream in my overnight chia seed pudding, makes it less slimy.

could you mix the 2 recipes together ? would that work ?

Love hemp hearts.... Great fried rice sub, too.❤

You really look great! Thank you for helping us through our journey!
