Blueberry Oatmeal Casserole

Blueberry Oatmeal Casserole combines rolled oats, nuts, seeds, coconut flakes, and a blend of fresh berries including blueberries, bananas, and strawberries. The oats mixture bakes around the layered fruit to a golden crisp top, offering a chewy and nutty texture with bursts of sweet and tart fruit. This bake is suitable for breakfast or brunch when you want a filling dish with natural sweetness and a hearty grain base.

Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons ground flaxseed used with 6 tablespoons warm water
  • 2 cups rolled oats whole
  • ½ cup almonds slivered
  • ½ cup hemp seed
  • ⅔ cup coconut flakes
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar or coconut sugar
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • ¾ teaspoon salt sea salt
  • ¾ cup almond milk at room temp
  • 1/4 cup maple syrup
  • 3 tablespoons coconut oil melted
  • 1 banana chopped
  • 1 cup strawberries sliced
  • ½ cup blueberries

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F and spray an 8x8-inch (or similar) baking dish with cooking spray.
  2. In a small bowl, combine the flaxseed and warm water and set aside to thicken for about 5 minutes.
  3. Reserve 2 tablespoons of the almonds, hemp seeds and coconut flakes and set aside. In a large bowl combine the oats, the remaining almonds, hemp seeds and coconut flakes, and the baking powder, cinnamon, brown sugar and salt.
  4. In a medium bowl, combine the almond milk, maple syrup and coconut oil and whisk to combine. Stir in the flaxseed mixture and blend until smooth.
  5. Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl of dry ingredients and stir to combine.
  6. Layer the bananas and strawberries in the baking dish and spread the oat mixture on top. Sprinkle with the blueberries and the reserved almonds, hemp seeds and coconut flakes.
  7. Bake for 40-50 minutes or until the top is crisp and the middle is set. I find it easiest to wedge a knife in and make sure the middle has thickened nicely. Remove and let cool for 15 minutes before serving.

Notes

  • For lower sugar, skip brown sugar and use 1/3 cup maple syrup instead.
  • Check doneness by inserting a knife; the center should be set and not runny.
