Ingredients

  • 1 ½ cups oat milk (unsweetened)
  • 2 tablespoons maple syrup*
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 ½ tablespoons cocoa powder

Instructions

  • Add all ingredients to a small or medium sized pot and mix with a whisk. Don't worry if the cocoa powder is clumpy at first. As it heats, you will be able to mix it in.
  • Heat the pot on the stove on medium heat, whisking occasionally. Continue heating until the hot chocolate is bubbling slightly. This should take about 5-7 minutes.
  • Use a spoon to taste and test the temperature. When it’s hot enough, remove the pot from heat and pour the contents into a mug.

Notes

*Add a bit more maple syrup if you want your hot chocolate to be sweeter.
Add ins:
If you want to add a peppermint taste to your hot chocolate, add a candy cane or some peppermint extract.
This hot chocolate is also great with ¼-½ teaspoon of ground cinnamon.
