Baked cinnamon oats

Truth be told, we cannot stop thinking about these cinnamon-bun baked oats. Indulgent, warming and perfectly sweet. To give them that 'iced' cinnamon bun effect, we served ours warm with a generous dollop of plant based yoghurt.

Perfect for those cozy mornings, they truly do feel like a real treat. (All without compromising on nutrition). Rich in fibre and a source of protein, these baked oats will have you avoiding hitting that snooze button. So good!

Serves 6

Ingredients:

  • 200g GF rolled oats
  • 480g oat milk
  • 80g applesauce
  • 40g or 2 tbsp agave syrup
  • 20g or 2 tbsp chia seeds
  • 18g or 1 tbsp psyllium husks for extra fibre
  • 5g or 2 full tsp cinnamon
  • 5g or 1 full tsp GF baking powder
  • 5g or 1 tsp vanilla extract (optional)
  • Pinch of salt
  • Serve with 50g (per serving) almond yoghurt, or your yoghurt of choice, mixed with ½ tsp cinnamon.

Method:
  1. Preheat the oven to 180C.
  2. Meanwhile, add the oats, baking powder and salt to a bowl and mix well.
  3. Then add the remaining ingredients and mix well once again.
  4. Add the mixture into a baking dish (a pie dish works well too) that is at least ~5 cm deep and bake for 30 min, testing with a toothpick for the oats to be a bit moist but not too liquid.
Tip: Leave it slightly undercooked if you are planning to reheat it several times.
