Instructions
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease an 8x8-inch baking dish and set it aside.
- In a large bowl, combine rolled oats, diced strawberries, diced rhubarb, ground cinnamon, and chia seeds. Add almond milk, honey or maple syrup, and vanilla extract. Stir until well combined. Let the mixture sit for 10 minutes to allow chia seeds to absorb liquid.
- In a separate bowl, mix the topping ingredients: rolled oats, chopped nuts, melted coconut oil, and honey/maple syrup. Stir until the oats and nuts are coated.
- Pour the oatmeal mixture into the prepared baking dish, then sprinkle the topping evenly over the top.
- Bake for 30-35 minutes, until golden brown and the oatmeal is firm.
- Allow it to cool slightly before serving. Top with coconut whipped cream and additional strawberries if desired.
Notes
- You can substitute the strawberries and rhubarb with other seasonal fruits such as blueberries or peaches.
- For a nut-free version, use seeds like sunflower or pumpkin instead of nuts.
- You can make this recipe vegan by ensuring you use maple syrup and plant-based coconut oil for the topping.
