Some ingredients you may not expect (and can omit if you don’t want to purchase them) are hemp hearts, chia seeds, and honey! Hemp hearts add some easy protein, chia seeds pump up the fiber, and honey makes the oatmeal more sweet! All are not 100% necessary, but I enjoy having them.
In addition, you will need to utilize some pantry staples such as cinnamon, vanilla extract, and salt.
