Introduction: Gluten Free Hot Chocolate With Coconut Oil
Ingredients:
1 cup whole milk
1 TB coconut oil
1/2 TB unsweetened cocoa powder
1/4 tsp vanilla
1 tsp honey (use more or less depending on how sweet you like it)
Instructions:
Put all ingredients (milk first) in a small saucepan over medium heat. Stir constantly with a small whisk (this helps the coconut oil blend in). It will heat up and come together pretty quickly (under 2 minutes). Pour into a mug and enjoy :)
Notes: I am always looking for ways to get coconut oil into my son, and this works really well! You almost can't even taste the coconut oil. I purposely make this less sweet than normal hot chocolate (he has never had it any other way), so if you prefer a sweeter drink, feel free to add more honey (and cocoa if you like).
