DAIRY FREE VEGAN GLUTEN FREE
This dish is perfect when you need some comfort food in the morning. Top with a dollop of dairy-free yogurt, maple syrup, more fresh berries and you’re ready to go for the day. This can be made ahead and leftovers can be kept in the refrigerator and eaten all week. This baked oatmeal also makes for a nice, cold treat when you are craving something slightly sweet.
Studies show oats and oatmeal have many health benefits including weight loss, lower blood sugar levels, and a reduced risk of heart disease. Oats are high in fiber and protein, amino acids, and loaded with vitamins.
Ingredients
1 large egg – I use the flaxseed method to make this vegan: Whisk1 tablespoon with 2 tablespoons warm water and let sit a few minutes to gel
2 cups coconut milk, or dairy free milk of your choice
1 teaspoon cinnamon
3 cups gluten-free quick cooking oats. (This can be made with regular oats if you do not have issues with gluten)
1/4 cup brown sugar(omit or reduce if you are cutting back on sugar)
1 cup blueberries, fresh or frozen
1 tablespoon agave or maple syrup
1 teaspoon vanilla
Handful of chopped nuts, your choice. I generally use pecans or walnuts for this recipe.
Beat the egg in a medium sized bowl and whisk in the coconut milk, agave, cinnamon, vanilla.
