    3. Add a splash of vanilla extra– It will add more flavor but it is completely optional.

    5. Substitute for maple syrup- You can can use honey.
    6. Substitute for cacao powder- You can use unsweetened cocoa powder.
    7. Add more toppings– Once you are ready to serve your oats add more toppings like more coconut cream, chocolate chips, fresh berries, etc.
