Peanut Butter and Jelly Oatmeal Bake
Description
This recipe mixes melted coconut oil, peanut butter, maple syrup, beaten egg, and almond milk to create a wet base. Rolled oats, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt are folded in for structure and flavor. The mixture is spread evenly in a greased baking pan, and dollops of fruit jam are gently swirled through before baking at 350°F until set and lightly golden. The result is a tender baked oatmeal with creamy peanut butter notes accented by bursts of jam. The texture is firm enough to slice, providing a substantial, breakfast-ready dish.
This oatmeal bake is suited for serving warm with almond milk or on its own as a filling start to the day. It can be made in a larger pan or smaller muffin tins for individual portions. Flavor and texture variations can be made by swapping almond milk, sweetener, or jam.
Leftovers should be refrigerated and can be stored for up to a week. For convenience, the bake can also be frozen following instructions in the original post. To make a vegan version, use a flax or chia egg and a plant-based sweetener.
