Ingredients

Scale

Dry Ingredients

  • 2 cups old-fashioned oats
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 cup coconut sugar
  • 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon

Wet Ingredients

  • 2 cups unsweetened almond milk
  • 1/4 cup maple syrup
  • 1 large egg, beaten
  • 1/4 cup coconut oil, melted
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 tablespoon melted coconut oil (for swirl)

Optional Add-ins

  • 1/4 cup raisins (optional)
  • 1/4 cup chopped nuts (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat and prepare: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease an 8×8-inch baking dish thoroughly with coconut oil to prevent sticking.
  2. Mix dry ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the oats, baking powder, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, and salt. Stir well to evenly distribute all ingredients.
  3. Combine wet ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the unsweetened almond milk, maple syrup, beaten egg, vanilla extract, and 1/4 cup of melted coconut oil until fully blended.
  4. Combine wet and dry: Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients. Stir everything together until the mixture is fully combined. If you like, fold in the raisins and chopped nuts gently at this stage.
  5. Transfer to baking dish: Pour the oatmeal mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it out evenly with a spatula.
  6. Prepare cinnamon swirl: In a small bowl, mix the coconut sugar, 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon, and 1 tablespoon melted coconut oil until you get a cohesive cinnamon swirl mixture. Drizzle this mixture evenly over the oatmeal and use a knife to gently swirl it through the top layer.
  7. Bake the oatmeal: Place the baking dish into the preheated oven and bake for 35-40 minutes. You’ll know it’s done when the top turns golden brown and the oatmeal has fully set.
  8. Cool and serve: Allow the baked oatmeal to cool for a few minutes before slicing and serving. For extra sweetness and creaminess, top with additional maple syrup or a dollop of yogurt, if desired.
