Ingredients

  • 2 cups rolled old-fashioned oats
  • 1/2 cup honey
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1 1/2 cups Almond or coconut milk
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 Tablespoon coconut oil melted
  • zest and juice of 1 1/2 large lemons
  • 2/3 tbsp pure vanilla extract
  • 1 tsp Cinamon optional
  • 1 cup fresh blueberries divided
  • OPTIONAL: Serve with plain yogurt and fresh berries

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Preheat the oven to 375°F and spray an 8x10 inch baking dish with cooking spray.
  2. Line it with parchment paper to make things to clean afterward.
  3. In a large mixing bowl, combine oats, baking powder, Cinnamon (if using), lemon zest, and salt.
  4. In another bowl whisk eggs, milk, maple syrup or honey, lemon juice, oil, and vanilla extract.
  5. Next, pour the liquid mixture into the oats. Gently fold to fully combine.
  6. Stir in 3/4 cup of the blueberries and fold again.
  7. Now pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish, using a spatula or the back of a spoon, hard-pack the mixture to create an even smooth top. Add the rest of the blueberrues on top.
  8. Bake for 25-30 minutes or until the topping smells toasty and looks golden brown.
  9. Place the pan on a wire rack to cool completely.
  10. Divide into 6 squares, garnish with the remaining fresh berries on top, and serve with plain yogurt.

Notes

  • Use a preheated oven. Depending on your oven it may need to bake 5-10 mins longer than the suggested time.
  • Cinnamon added in the video (optional)
  • Feel free to different kinds of fruit, loads of possibilities!
  • Allow it to cool off completely so it thickens. Let it sit for 15 minutes before serving.
  • Make gluten-free by using gluten-free oats.
  • Be sure to have the liquid ingredients at room temp before mixing. Room temperature ingredients will blend better.
  • Don’t substitute instant oats, as it will turn out mushy!
  • If you don't have fresh, you can use frozen blueberries - no need to defrost.
  • Serve with a dollop of plain yogurt or Greek yogurt.
  • Double up for a bigger crowd! This recipe can easily be doubled if you have an influx of guests!
