overnight coffee oats
Quick & easy breakfast that’ll keep you going all morning. It’s like the perfect breakfast in one bowl with protein, fiber, and caffeine
Disclosure: By posting this recipe I am entering a recipe contest sponsored by National Dairy Council and the Quaker Oats Center of Excellence and am eligible to win prizes associated with the contest. I was not compensated for my time.
Hi there friends.
I have good news and I have bad news… I’m going to start with the bad because I like to end on a positive note.
The bad news: I had a terrible fail in the kitchen today attempting to make a tomato pie. It was a soggy mess, and it brought a few tears to my eyes.
However, there’s no reason to cry over spilled milk unpretty tomato pie that still tastes really good.
So I ate a few slices globs of tomato pie and decided to share this amazing new breakfast I’m loving, which happens to be the easiest thing on the planet.
And that brings me to my good news: Overnight Coffee Oats
Overnight Oats – Have you heard of them?
I used to be incredibly skeptical about them. For years, I’ve seen these gloopy messes of pictures referred to as “overnight oats” that everyone claims are so wonderful.
How can cold oatmeal be good I thought. There’s just no way.
Well, I am the first to admit it: I was wrong. Dead wrong.
Overnight Oats are creamy and delicious and perfect for the summer because they don’t warm you up like a normal bowl of oatmeal would.
Plus, they are sooo easy to make. So so so easy.
You put everything in a bowl, cover, and put in the fridge. When you wake up the next morning, you stir and eat.
And it’s everything you need in one bowl: complex carbohydrates plus filling fiber
Oats are rockstars in my kitchen; in fact, they should have made it in my list of my top 5 things always in my kitchen. I seriously always have them.
See that big giant 110+ serving box of oatmeal right there. It makes me laugh, but it proves that yes, I really always have oats.
Oats are amazing because they are all 100% whole grain
I like to use lactose free milk because it’s the same as regular milk
If you aren’t into coffee, then just skip the coffee concentrate and replace with an equal amount of milk.
I found that these didn’t need any added sugar thanks to the cinnamon and vanilla extract. However, feel free to add a teaspoon of maple syrup or honey if desired.
Whatever you do, please don’t judge this wonderful breakfast by its pictures. I know it’s not pretty but it’s glorious. It really really is. Especially if you are in need of a quick, filling, and healthy breakfast.
Overnight Coffee Oats
Quick & easy breakfast that'll keep you going all morning. It's like the perfect breakfast in one bowl with protein, fiber, and caffeine

Totally brilliant to link a globby tomato pie (which I’m afraid I laughed out loud at the photo – and my husband asked “What’s so funny?”)…(:
…Totally brilliant to link that globby photo with globby overnight oats recipes. #Agreed
I love my overnight oats…but coffee chia is one combo I haven’t tried. But certainly will!!
Haha! I’m happy someone can laugh with me. I was so annoyed when it didn’t work and overnight oats are so unphotogenic! Globby was the theme of my day 😉
Sorry about the kitchen fail… we’ve ALL had them 🙂 The best you can hope for are fails that look terrible and tasty good 😀
I was skeptical of overnight oats, too… but yes, they’re SO good!
Agreed! At least I didn’t have to throw anything away – the worst!! It’s always nice to remember that everyone has them from time to time
So clever – your morning bowl of oatmeal and coffee all in one bowl! I use to feel the same way about overnight oats (why bother?) but then I had a PB&J version that I ended up eating daily for like month 🙂
PB&J?! Sounds incredible!! Honestly, these came about because I needed everything in one bowl to eat in less than 5 minutes for a 5am wake-up call. The result ended up being my new favorite breakfast!
I love that you successfully combined my 2 favorite breakfast foods – oats and coffee 🙂 Must try that! I’ll bet that kitchen fail tasted great!
Thanks Anne!! Oats and coffee are the best 🙂
And luckily, that kitchen fail was delish! Hopefully, I’ll be able to turn my fail into a yummy pie, but we shall see…
Looks like we had similar ideas with overnight oats! I love the coffee flavor!
I love that we’re both on the same thought page with our oats. You are a genius with the cookie dough flavor!
[…] convinced that you will like overnight oats? This cinnamon apple recipe is just for […]

10 Tasty Twists on Iced Coffee
With summer in full swing, iced coffee season is also at its peak. While there’s nothing wrong with a splash of milk and a few ice cubes, we’re such big fans that we wanted to take the refreshing beverage to a new level. We found 10 easy, creative, and (mostly) healthy recipes that make it more delicious than ever to cool down—and perk up—this summer.
Let’s start with the basics. While you could simply pour hot coffee over ice, you’ll be left with a diluted and disappointing cuppa joe. Instead, follow these simple cold-brewing directions from blogger Megan (who has two years’ experience as a barista, no less!). This makes a week’s worth of iced coffee that’s full of flavor and not at all watered-down.
If you’re a true java aficionado, this classic but a little more complex brewing method from the pros at Blue Bottle Coffee will give you a sweet, creamy, and consistently delicious drink. Cold brewing freshly ground beans for 12 hours with roasted chicory results in a coffee concentrate far more potent than your usual latte.
Use up every last drop of your morning brew by pouring leftovers in ice cube trays. There are endless options of things you can do with these frozen coffee cubes, from adding them to avoid diluting your usual cup of iced coffee to tossing into the below recipes for an extra hit of flavor.
This creamy, frothy smoothie is a delicious way to get your caffeine fix and protein needs all at once. With cold-brewed coffee, vanilla protein powder, yogurt, and milk, it couldn’t be easier to make for a perfect post-workout snack after a.m. exercise.
Start your morning off with this vegan drink that’s packed with bananas, coffee, and coconut milk. Topped with coconut flakes and an optional swirl of chocolate syrup, we can’t imagine a better way to greet the day.
We know fall is a while away, but why not give your favorite seasonal flavors an early welcome? With autumnal notes of cinnamon and pumpkin spice, this shake tastes eerily like pie, but it contains a hefty jolt of caffeine and far fewer calories.
Scary stat: A Starbucks Frappuccino contains a whopping 53 grams of sugars! This lower-sugar (and much cheaper) recipe is made with instant coffee, milk, and vanilla extract for an incredibly realistic recreation.
When you need a little pick-me-up before a night out on the town, try this dreamy drink (pictured above). The flavors of Frangelico—a liqueur made with toasted hazelnuts, brown sugar, cinnamon, cocoa, and vanilla extract — are especially tasty to add to iced coffee.
The java experts at Grady’s Cold Brew have come up with a plethora of ways to turn your morning joe into an evening-appropriate drink. Our favorite take combines dark rum, orange juice, and cold-brewed coffee for a refreshing, summery cocktail.
Cool down with this classic, creamy cocktail at the end of a hot summer day. The coffee flavor, along with vodka and Kahlua, adds richness and depth to the drink.
Caramel Macchiato
Freshly steamed milk with vanilla-flavored syrup is marked with espresso and topped with caramel drizzle for an oh-so-sweet finish.

Bulletproof Coffee: The Vegan Version
Danette Rivera
Last year, the gym was abuzz with praise for Bulletproof coffee, a component of the Bulletproof Diet developed by Dave Asprey. The taste, the texture, and the performance-enhancing qualities of the coffee were shouted from the rooftops, and though Bulletproof coffee is traditionally made by blending two tablespoons of unsalted, grass-fed butter into high-quality coffee, I was certainly intrigued.
Asprey claims: ”It can promote brain function, memory, and energy levels. It can serve as a massive source of antioxidants and is associated with all sorts of positive health outcomes … you never feel hungry, get low energy …”
I decide to check out The Bulletproof Excecutive site. I quietly sneak around in sites like these because though I’m interested in the content and gaining insight relative to my own life and diet, as a vegan I definitely get the message I’m an outsider or that because of my choice, I’m on the “wrong path.” But no mind, I’m used to that. I simply wanted to research for myself, especially when people I trust and like are raving about the particular benefits of Bulletproof coffee.
The Bulletproof site is also very testosterone infused, to put it mildly, which is another reason I skulk around. It makes me wonder if the health benefits they tout are actually meant for me. But just when I feel turned off by some of the ways Asprey gets his message across, I find nuggets that resonate highly with me. His definition of “bulletproof” is this: “A state of higher performance, resilience, and health. A state where your body, mind, and life are protected from illness, fatigue, stress, and inflammation.” Please, who doesn’t want that no matter who you are or what your personal plan is to get there?
The thing that made me most interested about Bulletproof coffee in particular was Asprey’s explanation of how he came about it. While climbing Mt. Kailash in Tibet, he was given yak-butter tea and was immediately rejuvenated. My mother has been on many expeditions hiking the base camps of the Himalayas and she said the same thing when she was fed this tea by Sherpa guides. It’s no mystery to most indigenous cultures or even families of lower-economic means that fat will sustain your energy. My Irish grandfather was raised with four brothers in the brutal winters of Saskatchewan in a poor household and they sustained on lard sandwiches. When he used to tell me those stories, I cringed, but now it makes sense, especially when there was so little else.
When I heard that some partakers of the Bulletproof coffee where using half butter and half coconut oil, I knew I had to give it a try using all coconut oil. I brewed 20oz of my favorite coffee, Trader Joe’s Ethiopian, which is fair trade, organic, and shade grown, and then blended in two tablespoons of raw, organic coconut oil. Just like with anything, high-quality ingredients will give quality results. Crap in, crap out is certainly a motto I live by.
When I turned on the blender, the black coffee turned to a rich, caramel color immediately. I had heard about the magic that happens after blending the fat into coffee - that it becomes instantly creamy. And it was true. I will say that for a beginner, two tablespoons of oil was rather aggressive. I liked the taste for about a quarter cup, and then I had to sprint to the toilet. The coffee went through me liked greased lightening. If you are just starting out, lower doses are recommended, about one tablespoon. I imagine this is true if you are adding butter, too.
I didn’t try the coconut-oil Bullletproof coffee again for a couple weeks. I was scared away by that first experience. But the second time, I added far less oil - one tablespoon - and it still blended beautifully. I’ve experimented with a couple sweeteners since. I tried liquid stevia, which seems to be the Bulletproof coffee sweetener of choice, but as much as I try to like the taste of stevia, I just don’t. I have added raw agave and raw coconut nectar, too, and since this is not ideal to the original, fat-burning intent of Bulletproof coffee, I recently switched to sweetening my coffee with Xylitol. Wow is it good. It tastes like heaven in a cup.
I’ve been drinking one cup of BP coffee every morning for a couple months now. I still only add about one tablespoon of coconut oil, no more. What I notice most is that I am very satiated in the morning without “coffee jitters.” I coach morning classes on Tuesday and Thursday, which start too early for me to eat breakfast, but end about 10:00am. The running joke at the gym was that after my last class, I’d run upstairs yelling “I’m starving!” I have not yelled that since I started drinking a cup of Bulletproof coffee before my first class.
I cannot definitely say that I’ve experienced spikes cognitively or performance-wise because of Bulletproof coffee. I haven’t had any notable loss of fat either. The way I approach my health as a whole contributes to all of that anyway - it’s never just one component. I can say that, though, that the drink is definitely satisfying and gives me an even amount of energy in the morning. Mostly, I really enjoy the taste of all coconut-oil coffee and I intend to stick with it.

How to Make Fatty Coffee with Butter and MCT Oil (Ketogenic Coffee Recipe for Biohackers)
Posted by Abel James | Last Updated: April 16, 2013
I’ve been getting loads of questions recently about how I make my ketogenic “fatty coffee” at home. So I just made a video (filmed by the crazy-talented George Bryant, no less) giving you a fatty coffee recipe.
As many of you know, I don’t tend to eat breakfast most days of the week. Instead, I engage in a ketogenic fast, which starves the body of protein and carbs.
But Abel, breakfast is the most important meal of the day!
A biohacker at heart, I drink my breakfast and I like it that way. I typically employ a compressed eating window in my daily routine, typically eating my first meal of the day between 12pm and 3pm. But before I have my first meal, I have lots and lots of fat… in my coffee.
Remember, fat is brain food.
And you want to know how you can really burn fat? By eating lots of it.
I’ve been putting heavy cream in my coffee (along with other fun fats, including but not limited to clotted cream, coconut oil, nut butters, and even Bailey’s from time to time… shhh) for many years. But last year I was inspired by my buddy Dave Asprey’s Bulletproof Coffee(tm) to throw butter and MCT oil in there, as well.
Then things got crazy.
Combine my homemade, hand-roasted, french-pressed, fair-trade, organic coffee with a healthy helping of fat and deliciousness ensues.
For those who don’t have my secret source of green beans, my friend Dave Asprey contributed his take on the importance of sourcing high-quality beans:
Abel is right that fresh roasted beans are better. Starbucks has hundreds of millions of dollars of pre-bought coffee sitting around, and some of it sits for months. The problem with sourcing green coffee is that the vast majority of green coffee, even washed coffee, contains some amount of mycotoxin antihistamine. You can reduce the likelihood of getting large doses of it by using Central American shade grown wet process coffee, but wet process coffee is still fermented with uncontrolled species, and the skill level of the coffee picker controls what goes in to the fermentation vessel. That’s why Upgraded Coffee is produced with a process which is of course freshly roasted (not quite as fresh as Abel, but very fresh), but also allows for no fermentation ever, and we test every batch with laboratory techniques to verify that there are no detectable performance-robbing toxins. The result is that the coffee gives you a boost but without jitters or a crash.
There aren’t many coffee beans that I recommend, but if you’re looking for a high-quality bean with a great-tasting roast, Dave’s Upgraded Coffee is a solid option. Lord knows when I was out in San Francisco at the biohacking conference, that coffee got me through the jetlag.
So how can you make fatty coffee at home? Watch the video below to find out. Enjoy!

Christina D says
Well I know how I’m making my coffee tomorrow!
Question – You mention roasting your own coffee… do you need a specific product to home roast coffee in, or could I do it in my oven or something?
If you’re handy, you can even do it in a cast-iron skillet or pot. That’s what I do. It’s just fun.
I’ve been putting coconut oil in my coffee and skipping breakfast for awhile now, along with eating modified Paleo (modified = anything I want one day a week). At 56 years old I’m still in 31X40 Wranglers (what I used to wear in high school) at 6′ 0″ and 165 lbs, so I know the lifestyle works. If you will, please allow me to plug my favorite coffee… Kabum @ http://www.kabum.org. It’s the best coffee I’ve been able to find so far (and they appear to be doing a good thing as well). Kabum + Organic Coconut Oil + one of those little whipper things = yummy coffee and a clear head! And to Christina D, You can roast coffee in a hot air popcorn popper, but I like the Hottop home coffee roaster the best. Google it.
Christina D says
Thanks Rich! I never would have thought to use a popcorn popper! We have one sitting around gathering dust because we don’t eat popcorn anymore. Now I have a use for it again!
I’ll give Kabum a shot!
I do a similar blend every morning. I have found using a magic/nutri-bullet blender to be ideal. You get a really frothy coffee and it comes with a cup.
In the afternoons I will often some protein powder as well (ends up like a cappuccino).
Hi Abel, HWC won’t negate your keto fast ? I use about 1-2 tbs total as I have 2 cups of bulletproof coffee in the am. I have heard that HWC negates your fast, but it barely has any carbs in it.
Geoffrey Bogorad says
Yea…using a “bullet” type mini blender does the job hands down.
I am loving your fatty coffee and your wild diet all the way in Australia. however was just wondering how many fatty coffees would you recommend max. Currently I drink 2-3 before heading off to work, gets me through my workout and ready for the day.
Is that too many?
I typically stick to probably a total of 2-4 tablespoons of fat total over the course of a fast. If you’re having a whole stick of butter or other oil (as some do), that’s probably getting carried away.
Listen to your body and see how you feel!
I’m new to the site here, and loving all the new ideas I’m learning. I’ve been following a leangains style of IF off and on for a couple years now. I understand that fat causes little to no insulin spike…but slamming all those calories surely counts as breaking your fast, no?
Yes, it’s ketogenic fasting, not fasting outright. If you consume calories, you’re technically not fasting. However, if you consume only fat, your body stays in autophagy so you still get many of the health benefits of fasting without the restriction.
What’s a good substitute for coffee? i’d like to start doing a bullet-proof drink in the morning, but I do not like coffee. Any ideas?
Richard Laing says
Look into Yerba mate, a mild tasting tea with what some might say benefits beyond caffeine alone.
Awesome, Abel! Do you have posts about the Ketogenic fast?
I am confused about what you said… replacing Bfast with the Fatty Coffee in order to do the ketogenic fasting. in order to be in ketosis, you need to keep a really low carb content the entire day, for several days, no? Just shortening the eating window to, say, noon – 5 each day won’t put you into ketosis, correct?
Right – generally it takes a good 3 or so days below 20-30 carbs to get into ketosis.
Writing a book on fasting now – will soon!
Do you think it’s necessary to fast? I workout way more than a normal person, I’m vegan, and I have a really busy schedule so I find my self eating dinner later than 7 or 8 sometimes. In the morning I only consume fruit, just fruit until 12 then I eat my meals after that. I just feel that it isn’t necessary to get results? And what are the benefits from fasting, and is it really that bad to eat breakfast?
What would you recommend to replace the heavy cream? I don’t do dairy (except grass-fed butter). Would unsweetened vanilla almond milk be too processed or caloric for this?
Morgan Miller says
So I am sure you use grass fed/finished butter and cream, but I cant do any dairy. I love the idea but it really doesnt work for me. Any suggestions? I have tried it with just coconut oil and it tastes ok, but I am not sure it is giving the same effect.
Give ghee a shot!
hi, been making your fat coffee instead of brekki for about a month. i have major fat to lose, around 90lb and want to build great muscle. how many times a day would you say to have a fat coffee? i would be happy to replace all my meals with it. oh btw should i not do the coffee if not in ketosis? cheers 🙂
Mike Pritts says
Abel, you mention skipping breakfast when you drink “fatty coffee.” How long do you recommend going without eating after? I workout in the morning before work and like to eat immediately after. So for me, I would have the coffee at 5AM, workout, then breakfast around 0730. Is 2 1/2 hours sufficient before having protein/carb?
Hi there I featured you on my blog! Just to let ya know! Thanks, Ryn
Interesting post! Do you have any studies that show that the advantages of calorie restriction can be kept whilst consuming calories from fatty acids?
I did my own version with what I had on hand. It was not only really good, but did indeed keep my hunger free for a solid 4.5 hours. My glucose level (currently type II diabetic) only rose a small amount as well. I used Italian espresso and basically made a bulletproof Americano or as I like to call it, High Caliber Bulletproof Coffee :-D. I like mine a little creamier and sweeter so I added an extra ounce of Almond milk and a teaspoon of xylitol. I’m not sure health-wise how this particular brand stacks up, but the flavor is the best coffee I’ve ever head once I dilute it a little and it’s not even close.
4 oz – Lavazza Crema e Gusto Ground Coffee, Italian Espresso(prepared)
4 oz – hot water
2 oz – unsweetened Almond milk
1 tbsp – Kerrygold unsalted butter
1 tbsp – Trader Joe’s Virgin Coconut Oil
Abel, if you add the nut-butter, do you do that in addition to the butter and MCT or Coconut oil or in place of one?
Sounds delicious! You can add the nut-butter in with the MCT/coconut for some added flavor. The MCT’s are part of the energy and focus kick you get from Fatty Coffee 🙂 – Emily, FBM Team Coach
Huge, HUGE fan of fatty coffee! Not only does it taste great, but it’s also the absolute best way in the world to wake up and jumpstart the brain in the morning.
I’ve tried the Bulletproof version –– and it’s certainly good –– though I’d like to think my own recipe and preparation is quite a bit tastier. Here’s how my version goes:
• One cup of dark roast organic coffee, quick brewed in an Aeropress.
• One TBS of Kerry Gold Salt-free Butter.
• One heaping TBS of Organic Coconut Butter.
• Three to Four TBS of Organic Coconut Milk.
• 1/8 to 1/4 tsp of Ground Cinnamon.
Place in a tall cup or mug, and then whip the living hell out of all this using either a long spoon or small electric whisk.
Honest-to-god, this is the best damn cup of coffee imaginable, and the sort of thing that keeps me going for a good three to four hours (especially with all 250 of its delicious, saturated-fat laden calories). Also, the cinnamon is a really nice touch, giving a slightly sweet flavor to the brew, without actually adding any sugars to the mix.
Sounds delish! I love coconut butter in mine as well! Do you brew the coffee with the cinnamon mixed into the beans? I’ve done that before and liked the results too! Cheers to fatty coffee! 🙂 – Emily, FBM Team
Emily: I use an Aeropress to brew my coffee (a great cup of java in just sixty seconds), and wouldn’t attempt adding the cinnamon to the beans. Cinnamon turns slightly gelatinous when added to hot water, and so –– if the beans and cinnamon were mixed together –– the “gluey” cinnamon would clog up the filter of the Aeropress.
Ah yes, that would definitely not work in that process! Glad you’ve found something that works for you. Enjoy your fatty coffee! – Emily, FBM Team
Jackie Treehorn says
Bulletproof coffee gone wrong:
Hahaha isn’t that hilarious? So silly! – Emily, FBM Team
Bill Reside says
some of us are chronic over-doers. I know its hard to advise but how much of this coffee is too much? is it intended for one cup until noon or several cups. Is it another one of those “find what’s best for you” situtations?
You hit it Bill, ALL of this health “stuff” is exactly that: “Find what’s best for you” 🙂 – Emily, FBM Team
Stuart Foster says
Wondering how many times a week people do the fat coffee? Sure that people are al over the place…. but for weight loss, what are the benefits of the daily fatty fasting versus lets says 3-4 days a week?
Do love my coconut cream, HWC, and Kerrygold blend!
Yup, you’re right, people are all over the place with it! Totally depends on what works best for your body. Play around with it and see what gives you the most energy/best results 🙂 – Emily, FBM Team
I like the name “fatty coffee”. I often drink fatty coffee but for reasons that you might not typically hear. I’m calling it Shanghai Bulletproof Coffee! http://www.chinabiohacker.com/blog/how-to-make-shanghai-bulletproof-coffee
I’m eager to try this but I’m one of those people who needs a little sweetness in my coffee. I’ve tried for years to like coffee with out sugar, or sweetener, but it’s yet to happen. Is there a good alternative? I’ve heard of people adding a small amount of stevia, but on the flip side, have heard that’s bad because it makes you crave more sugar. What’s the best choice to not spike your insulin or blood sugar?
Hello Abel, Can you please tell us what type of French Press you have?
Mary Ann Wiebe says
Finally researched yesterday a lingering suspicion I had about MCT oil. Why are the current Paleo gurus pushing MCT a processed version of natural virgin coconut oil? This processed MCT oil is missing the healthiest part of the oil which is lauric acid, abundant in the natural product. Best source other than human mother’s milk. Why are we paying more, and shipping it across the country, to get less healthily product. I’ve bought tons of MCT, but enjoy my fatty coffees with the real stuff.
Of all people to be pushing a processed oil MCT that is devoid of the best quality component! I marvel that you as the Paleo gurus whom we come to trust aren’t looking into this yourselves. I’m just say’s.
Jose Valenzuela says
Hi Abel, I enjoy listening to your podcasts and have learned a lot from it. My questions is where can I order the fair trade coffee if I want to do my own roasting. Thanks.
How necessary is it to use a sponge bob mug? I have a green arrow mug I’d like to use. Will that work?
Thanks for all the great work your doin out there in the peoples republic of Austin. Keep it up sir and congrats on the engagement.
Richard Laing says
Anyone blending macadamia nuts into their morning coffee? Wondering if they blend well enough not to make gritty coffee. Seems like they would make a tasty alternative to peeps that might not want to use butter!
I’ve read of some people adding protein (in the form of collagen hydrolysate) to their fatty coffee. I tried it and found it pleasing in taste and texture. Then I heard Abel (in his CreativeLive course) say that avoiding other nutrients, including protein, is important for this morning routine. But, here I see the suggested use of nut butters in fatty coffee. Various nut and seed butters have 3-4 g of protein per tbsp, while the coll.hydrol. has about 1.5 times that. Is protein actually okay to add? Should the amount be under some limit, making a little bit of nut butter okay? I welcome your knowledge and advice on this. Thanks.
The big problem with Dave’s “Bulletproof” coffee are the SFAs in the butter. Some SFAs are not inflammatory, those in butter are and you’ve also got the problems with the cholesterol in the butter which, according to most of the research I’ve read, becomes oxidized at +107 degrees*. Water boils at 212 degrees F. Is this an issue? I can’t say for sure as there’s no definitive answer, but, as an interview on Dr. Mercola’s site notes, there’s a 1:1 between oxidized cholesterol and arterial plaque. And, Dr. Steve Gundy–a LOW carb MD and cardiologist–minimizes the amount of animal proteins and fats in his diet.
Don’t forget, Dave’s background is sitting in front of a laptop and writing code and hacking computers. He’s not a cardiologist nor research scientist, so, while Bulletproof coffee may sound cool and taste good — which it does — buyer beware and check things out for yourself. I’ll use Coconut Oil and a little almond milk. Just don’t want to play Russian roulette with my arteries.
can you make fatty tea? Not a coffee drinker. In addition, should I be concerned with the fat upsetting may stomach?
I would love to try roasting my own coffee. Any recommendations for where online I could buy some green organic coffee?
Jason Hughes says
I must be doing the fasting thing completely wrong Abel. I thought only water was beneficial during a 16-20 hour fast? Will doing your method help me burn even more fat?
How do you do with just water? That’s a different kind of fasting, but can help as well.
Adding fat is useful if you feel like you need more energy to get you through your compressed eating window. But I say try it and see how you feel!
Since I live in The Netherlands I can’t seem to find Triglyceride. The things I find on Amazon seem to be Fishoil.. Will that do the trick? I know that’s available over here, but maybe you know a substitute since I don’t want my coffee to taste fishy 😉
Started fasting and changing my diet a week ago and I’m staggered by the results in such a short amount of time!
So thanks a lot and keep it up!
Happy to hear that you’re getting great results, David!
I wouldn’t do fish oil in coffee, but I’d recommend you try whipping cream (heavy cream), grassfed butter, coconut milk, or anything else that’s high in fat with a relatively neutral taste. There are so many options!
Thanks! In that case I didn’t understand it well enough. I’ve been having the fatty coffee as breakfast for over a week now. With coconut oil, cream and grassfed butter just like you mentioned. It tastes great! I thought the triglyceride was another addition to the coffee but that’s what the things in the coffee contain. I get in now! I was just wondering whether it’s good to have more than 1 cup of fatty coffee during the day? Because after a few hours I’m starting to crave for more 😉
Just a thought, whipping some organic heavy cream can turn it into butter (and buttermilk), how about I just put the cream into my coffee?
Absolutely – I actually often whip grass-fed heavy cream and put that in my coffee. 🙂
Hi able, I can’t find any grass fed dairies around me to buy butter or cream, and the can only find MTC oil in processed power form. I was wondering if I could substitute either or both of these with coconut oil?
Can we have fatty coffee any time of the day? Like after lunch? Or is it one of those things that we should only consume in the mornings on an empty stomach to get the most benefits?
Randy Daniel says
That was an eye-opener. I’ve just been using butter… Thanks for the video Abel!
Abel, I was reading through the posts and noticed some interesting questions I’d really like to hear your stance on:
hi, been making your fat coffee instead of brekki for about a month. i have major fat to lose, around 90lb and want to build great muscle. how many times a day would you say to have a fat coffee? i would be happy to replace all my meals with it. oh btw should i not do the coffee if not in ketosis? cheers :)”
Hi Abel, can I use some organic grass fed non homogenized milk instead of cream?
Sure, if that’s you’re preference. 🙂
Abel, I saw the following post from a while back but I didn’t see a reply…..
Mike Pritts says:

So for me, I would have the coffee at 5AM, workout, then breakfast around 0730. Is 2 1/2 hours sufficient before having protein/carb?
I work out every morning at 6:30am, otherwise it would never happen. Like Mike I typically eat breakfast afterwards. This is also when i typically have my carbs. What would you suggest? If I just have the fatty coffee will that suffice or am I jeopardizing my muscle recovery?
Just had a second thought……
Could I just switch the timing of my fast? Instead I could have a decaf fatty coffee at 5pm and then fast until the morning. I can wake up, work out, and break my fast at 8:30am when I normally eat breakfast and then have lunch later. Thoughts?
Can’t find your YouTube intervew with Dr. Steven Gundry…is that still around? Thanks!
Hah… I love this! To burn fat you need to consume fat… the right way of course. I’ve been on the fence about Asprey’s bulletproof coffee, but your article is convincing me. I use ghee butter in my coffee, which is grass-fed and more natural… and coconut oil with cinnamon to give it a sweet taste. Sometimes switch it up with cashew milk for a creamer. Yum!

Coffee Flour ™ is…
…An agricultural innovation with the potential to do some really great things for the world. And we don’t just mean the food world.
Each year the billions of coffee beans that eventually make their way into the Americanos, lattes, and no-foam, extra-hot, triple-shot cappuccinos of the world are harvested by milling and extracting them from the coffee plant. The surrounding fruit, is discarded. It often gets dumped into rivers or left to rot in heaps. So we invented something better to do with it. Something that’s better for everyone.
For farmers and families in coffee growing countries, it creates sustainable jobs and a new revenue source for some of the poorest areas of the world. For the environment, it will remove botanical waste, reducing methane gas emissions and minimizing pollution of streams and soil, strengthening the land and lives of the people and species there. And for the rest of us, it will add a nutritious and distinctly flavorful ingredient to the global menu.
We have a passion for coffee, and for the people, and communities who grow it. So finding a use for that discarded fruit became our purpose. We pioneered a process that converts this coffee byproduct into a nutrient-dense new super-ingredient we call Coffee Flour ™ .
What we’re most proud of is that we’ve structured our business so that the positive social, environmental, and economic impacts will be shared by all.

Healthy Coffee Banana Smoothie Recipe
Whip up this Healthy Coffee Banana Smoothie recipe for a morning jolt. Protein, fiber and caffeine will start you day off right! Thank you to SocialMoms and Seattle’s Best Coffee for helping me to share this recipe with you.
Morning rituals are never meant to be messed with, particularly when the ritual involves caffeine. Every night, my husband grinds the coffee beans and preps the coffee pot, setting the “auto on” so that the steaming brew is piping hot when we stumble downstairs in the morning. The coffee is always consumed straight-up…no cream, no sugar, and the stronger the better.
This weekend, we set aside some of the coffee and chilled it in anticipation of combining it with nonfat Greek yogurt, a banana, cinnamon, nutmeg and ground flax seed for a morning smoothie with a caffeine kick. Why not consume some lean protein and fiber while getting your morning jolt?
We brewed a pot, poured it into our favorite “day off” mugs (we’ve had these mugs for about 18 years, and only use them on days when we’re not working…our little ritual) and took some slurps.
The coffee was bold, just the way we like it, and smooth as can be. In fact, it’s the kind of brew that we could happily wake up to every morning. And who knew that it could make a killer smoothie, too?! Of course, you don’t have to drink your coffee black for it to taste good. Dress it up however you like…with sugar, flavored creamers, Irish whiskey (okay, maybe not first thing in the morning).
The recipe:
Place all of the ingredients in a heavy-duty blender – one that can crush ice. This is the one that I used for this recipe.
Blend until smooth. Serve.

I love everything about this smoothie.
Dara (Cookin' Canuck) says
Thanks, Liz! It’s a keeper, for certain.
I am not a coffee drinker, but I do love a splash of it in sweeter drinks and of desserts!! This smoothie looks and sounds great and I actually just bought a bag of that exact coffee for the coffee drinks in the house. Looks like it is smoothie time! 🙂
Dara (Cookin' Canuck) says
I hope you have a chance to try it, Tieghan. The coffee/banana combination is a great way to sweeten it up.
I make banana smoothies with my coffee all the time. You’ve totally inspired me to combine them! This looks wonderful!!
Dara (Cookin' Canuck) says
Thanks, Ali! I was surprised at how much I liked this combo. I’m thinking this smoothie will become a part of my morning routine.
Such a fabulous smoothie! This sounds awesome!
Dara (Cookin' Canuck) says
Thanks, Katrina! The flavors have me hooked.
I literally just finished my morning cups of coffee…and then saw this post. Now I am thinking they will never measure up ’cause it wasn’t part of a delish banana smoothie. Yum!
Dara (Cookin' Canuck) says
LOL. Thanks, Taylor. There’s always tomorrow morning. 🙂
This sounds fabulous! I could definitely love this.
Dara (Cookin' Canuck) says
Thanks, Norma. I feel the same way!
Nice recipe. Thank you. Have a great week!
Dara (Cookin' Canuck) says
Thank you, Liz. You too.
Ooh…sounds so good. I’m not a big smoothie person; I love my toast in the morning but I could do this. I can do this; maybe even right now!
Dara (Cookin' Canuck) says
Thanks, Barbara. I found myself sipping on this as a mid-morning snack to curb the pre-lunch munchies.
What a wonderful way to start your mornings!
Dara (Cookin' Canuck) says
Thanks, Chung-Ah. It definitely gives you a kick in the morning!
Mmmm…I like the sound of this! Great smoothie recipe, Dara! 🙂
Dara (Cookin' Canuck) says
Thanks, Sommer. I hope you have a chance to try it…I have a feeling you’d like it. 🙂
Seriously cannot get over the genius of this smoothie. I am a smoothie junkie AND a coffee addict.. how did I not put these two together before?! Love this!
Dara (Cookin' Canuck) says
You’re so sweet, Mallory! I’m wondering what took me so long to think of this combination, too.
Such a great smoothie idea, this would give me a nice kick for my runs!
Ha, I would never think of mixing coffee with banana…Cool! You are so right about coffee – it’s a personal relationship with a particular brand.:) Looks great!
Hi Dara! This looks like the perfect way to start a day.
I like to freeze my bananas that I put into smoothies. Gives it a little thicker texture.
I’ve definitely got this on my menu for next week 🙂
I absolutely loved making this delicious drink. I actually made it tonight, and I must say very impressive! 🙂 Thanks for sharing such a delicious recipe. I added you on Google+ so I can check out more of your recipes. 🙂
Awesome recipe. I will defrinitely try this!! Thank you for sharing!!
Usually every morning I have my coffee and smoothie separately, I love the idea of combining them! Yum 🙂
MMMM thanks for sharing, sounds great! I have been dieting so this would be great for me! Have a great day!
Sounds like a great recipe and I most definitly will try this! Check out my site I have some great tasting coffee as well!
AMAZING! It’s the perfect balance of sweetness from the honey and banana and tartness from the Greek yogurt and coffee. I usually have a hard time with recipes (they never turn out for me!) but this was easy and fool-proof. I’ll be making this almost every morning!
It’s addictive, isn’t it? I’m so glad that you enjoyed it, Stephanie!
Okay, so I have tried so many different shake, healthy drinks and each one I pick one of the ingredients is *banana*. Is there some way I can substitute banana for something else? I don’t like the taste of them so I was just wondering. Could I also just leave out the ingredient all together.
LITERALLY BEST THING TO HAVE EVER GRACED MY LIPS. THANK U.
I’m so glad to hear that!
I plan to try this tomorrow
Hello, I loved the recipe, but it will still taste good if I remove the flax seed, the cinnamon and the nugmed?
Hi Bruna, I’m glad you enjoyed the recipe! I haven’t tried it without the cinnamon and nutmeg. There is bound to be a taste difference, but I’d imagine it would still taste good. You shouldn’t even notice the absence of the flax seed – I just add it for a good boost of omega-3s.
If I want 2 cups and just increase the coffee or add some almond or coconut milk will that change the nutritional values much? I would leave agave nectar out as I must reduce my sugar.
Hi Ron, the best thing to do would be to enter the ingredients and serving size you plan to use into an nutritional calculator, such as this one. I hope that helps!
Is ice necessary? Could just freezing the banana work? I am not sure if my magic bullet could handle ice (never tried it)
Yummy!! Great smoothie that can keep me awake while easing my hunger in the early morning!

OMG! This is so good! I never thought that coffee and banana would work together.
