Apple Cinnamon Baked Oatmeal:

Instructions

Prepare the Apple Cinnamon Baked Oatmeal

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
  • Prepare a lightly oiled (or parchment-lined) 9 x 13 casserole or baking dish
  • In a large mixing bowl, combine the dry ingredients (oats, shredded coconut, chopped apple, coconut sugar, cinnamon, salt, and baking powder). Mix well to combine.
  • In a separate mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, almond milk, melted butter, lemon juice and vanilla extract.
  • Pour the wet mixture over the dry oat mixture and stir to combine.
  • Transfer the oatmeal mixture into the prepared baking dish. Spread the mixture around so that the apples aren’t poking up too far and the mixture is evenly distributed.
  • Bake in the oven for 40 to 50 minutes or until the top is golden brown and all of the liquid appears to be absorbed.
  • Allow the baked oatmeal to cool 15 minutes before slicing large portions and serving with coconut milk glaze on top (instructions below)!

Prepare the Coconut Milk Glaze:

  • Add coconut milk and sugar to a small saucepan and bring it to a gentle boil.
  • Reduce heat to medium and allow the coconut mixture to continue cooking, whisking frequently, until the coconut milk begins to thicken and turns a slightly darker shade. This process should take about 20 to 25 minutes.
  • Remove coconut milk glaze from the heat and allow it to cool slightly. The longer it cools, the thicker the mixture will become.
  • Drizzle the glaze over the baked oatmeal and enjoy!

Notes

*If you'd like, use a combination of oats and muesli. 2 cups of oats and 2 cups of muesli is a good ratio :)
**You can substitute the butter for non-dairy "butter" spread if you don't do dairy or use avocado oil instead.
***If you'd like, you can make a standard glaze using 2 cups of powdered sugar and 2 to 4 tablespoons of water or milk
