Hey lovies!

Here’s an easy breakfast recipe ready in just ten minutes for those busy mornings or when you get home famished after a morning sweat!
It’s creamy, delicious, plant-based friendly, full of protein, fibre & it’s gluten-free & super satisfying!
You can customize it your way by swapping the collagen for protein & the chaga for another adaptogen or superfood powder!
I sweetened it with 100% apple butter but you can use maple or yacon syrup, coconut sugar or extra cinnamon, if you prefer!
Chaga is one of my fave medicinal mushrooms to use in recipes & lattes because I find it has the perfect mix of a nutty coffee-like taste so it really makes for a great addition to oatmeal, breakfast foods, baked goods, smoothies & coffees. NOT TO MENTION, it’s quite the superfood: it’s super ant-aging, lowers cholesterol, fights certain types of cancer, lowers blood pressure, supports strong immunity, fights inflammation & naturally lowers blood sugar levels. It also has adaptogenic properties, so it helps relieve symptoms of anxiety, depression & mood disorders.
