  • ⅓ cup (104g) pure maple syrup
  • Zest from 1 large orange
  • ½ cup (100g) freshly squeezed orange juice
  • 1 tablespoons (14g) melted butter, vegan butter or melted and cooled coconut oil
  • 1 ¼ cup (200g) unsweetened vanilla almond milk (or milk of choice)
  • ½ tablespoon vanilla extract
  • ¼ teaspoon almond extract
  • Dry Ingredients:
  • 2 cups (190g) old fashioned rolled oats
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • Orange yogurt topping:
  • 2 tablespoons (28g) plain or vanilla greek yogurt (or sub dairy free yogurt or softened cream cheese)
  • 1 tablespoon (7g) powdered sugar (or you can sub maple syrup or honey)
  • 1-2 teaspoons fresh orange juice, to thin
  • ½ teaspoon orange zest
  • ¼ teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Grease a 9x9 inch pan with oil or nonstick cooking spray and set aside.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, pure maple syrup, orange zest, orange juice, melted butter, almond milk and both vanilla and almond extracts until well combined.
  3. Add the dry ingredients to the bowl with the wet ingredients: oats, baking powder and salt. Mix until well combined.
  4. Pour mixture into prepared pan and smooth top. Bake for 40-55 minutes or until the edges are slightly golden brown and center is set. Remove from the oven, allow to cool for 10 minutes, while you make the orange glaze.
  5. To make the orange vanilla glaze: in a small bowl, mix together the greek yogurt, powdered sugar, orange juice, zest and vanilla; mix to combine. Add more orange juice if necessary to thin it out so you can drizzle it over the top of the oatmeal. Drizzle over the top of the oatmeal, cut into 6 slices and serve!

Notes

  • To make this an orange chocolate chip oatmeal bake: stir in ⅓ cup mini or regular chocolate chips, dairy free if desired.
  • For a little boost of nutrition: feel free to add 1-2 tablespoons of chia seeds to the batter before baking.
  • For a winter/holiday version: add in 1 cup of fresh or frozen cranberries + ½ cup walnuts or pecans + 1 teaspoon cinnamon + pinch of nutmeg. You could also do ½ cup dried cranberries instead of fresh.
  • This would also be great with ¼ cup homemade cranberry sauce swirled in before baking (perfect after Thanksgiving!).
  • For a more summery version: add in 1 cup of fresh or frozen blueberries.
