Individual Strawberry Orange Baked Oatmeal Food

INDIVIDUAL STRAWBERRY-ORANGE BAKED OATMEAL

Steps:

• In a medium bowl add oats, oat bran, and ground flax.
• Zest the peel of one whole blood orange and add zest to the medium bowl. Cut the orange in half width wise (like you would a grapefruit). Run your knife around the fruit just inside the peel of the orange. Then cut along the membranes of the fruit sections. Scoop out the orange sections (ie the pulp only) with a spoon and add orange sections to the bowl. Squeeze out the juice remaining in the now fruitless orange halves into the bowl as well.
• Add chopped strawberries, honey, brandy extract, egg and milk into the bowl, stir until well mixed.
• Spray out 4 individual ramekin dishes (5oz) with cooking spray and equally divide oatmeal into the 4 dishes.
• Bake for 350F for 25-35 minutes. Oatmeal will be golden brown around the edges and will poof up slightly. Enjoy!

STRAWBERRY-ORANGE OATMEAL BARS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Line an 8x8-inch baking pan with enough parchment to have overhang on all sides. Lightly grease parchment with cooking spray.
• Stir together oats, whole wheat flour, coconut, almonds, ginger, and salt in a large bowl. Add 1/2 cup maple syrup, melted butter, and vanilla extract. Stir until mixture is thoroughly combined. Reserve 1 cup of the crust mixture to use as the topping. Press the rest of the crust mixture firmly and evenly into the bottom of the prepared pan.
• Combine strawberries, 3 tablespoons maple syrup, cornstarch, orange juice, and orange zest in a bowl. Toss to combine until there are no longer any dry lumps of cornstarch. Pour strawberry mixture evenly over the crust.
• Sprinkle reserved crust mixture over the strawberries and lightly press down into strawberry mixture.
• Bake in the preheated oven, until the top is golden brown and strawberries are bubbling, 45 to 50 minutes. Cool completely in pan. Remove from pan using parchment "handles" and slice into bars.
