Ingredients
- 1 tbsp ground flax seeds
- 3 tbsp water
- 2 cups rolled oats
- 3 tbsp coconut sugar
- 1/2 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp lime zests
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1/2 cup apple sauce
- 1 and 3/4 cup unsweetened almond milk or other plant-based milk
- 1 tbsp vegan butter melted
- 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
- 2 semi-ripe peaches
- 1 tbsp coconut sugar
- 1 tbsp lime juice
Instructions
- Preheat oven to
350 °F (175°C) and grease a 10x6-inch baking dish with vegan butter or oil. - Make the flax egg. In a small bowl, whisk the ground flax seeds with the water and let it sit for 5 minutes or until it forms a gel.
- Stir the dry ingredients together. In a large mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, coconut sugar, baking powder, lime zest, and salt.
- Add the wet ingredients. Pour in the applesauce, almond milk, melted vegan butter, vanilla extract, and flax egg. Stir until fully combined, then transfer the batter to the prepared baking dish.
- Toss the peaches. Start by slicing the peaches into thick slices. Then, transfer them to a small bowl and add the coconut sugar and lime juice. Toss to coat. The sugar will help the peaches slightly caramelize.
- Add the peaches to the baking dish. Arrange the peach slices on top of the oatmeal batter and slightly press them down.
- Bake. Bake for about 30 minutes, or until the top appears golden brown and the peaches are tender. Let it cool for a few minutes before serving!
- You can store this baked oatmeal for up to 4 days in the refrigerator.
Notes
Grease your baking pan.
Oats are very sticky, so remember to grease your baking pan well before pouring the oats into it. You can grease it with vegan butter or oil. From my experience, greasing with butter works the best.Taste the oatmeal before baking.
To ensure your oatmeal has the desired sweetness, taste it before pouring it into the pan. If it’s not sweet enough, add more sugar or maple syrup.Nutrition
