Vegan Almond Berry Baked Oats Food

VERY BERRY BAKED OATMEAL

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350F. Lightly grease the baking dish.
• Add 3/4 of mixed berries to the bottom of the baking dish.
• In a large bowl add oatmeal, cinnamon, baking powder, salt. Mix well. Sprinkle the oatmeal mixture evenly over berries.
• In the large bowl add 1 egg and beat it gently. Add almond milk, maple syrup, melted butter and vanilla. Mix well. Gently pour over top of oatmeal mixture and jiggle to help the liquid move through the oatmeal throughout.
• Add remaining mixed berries evenly over the oatmeal mixture. Bake for 35-40 minutes or until oatmeal has cooked and turned a subtle golden brown. Remove from oven and serve.

VEGAN ALMOND BERRY BAKED OATS

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 190C/170C fan/ gas 5. Tip the oats into a heatproof bowl, then pour over 450ml boiling water from the kettle. Stir well, then stir in the vanilla and almond milk.
• Mash the banana, then spread over the base of a medium baking dish (ours was a 20 x 28cm oval) and stir in the frozen fruit to fully combine. You want the banana to sweeten the berries, but you can add 1 tsp maple syrup, if you like. Pour over the oat mixture and scatter with the almonds. Bake for 30-40 mins until set and the fruit juices are bubbling at the edges of the dish. Scoop into bowls and serve with a little extra milk, if you like.
