Another adventure in breakfast-making... This one was not as successful as the banana oat bars, which I absolutely love, but I still like this one nonetheless! It's certainly not as sweet; it has an almost salty punch to it, which I really like for some reason with the blueberry bottom.
Blueberry Baked Oatmeal (based on this recipe, served on 2/19/10)
1 1/2 cups rolled oats
3 tablespoons agave
1/2 cup hemp milk (or whatever vegan milk you have on hand)
1/4 cup applesauce
1 tablespoon chia seeds
2 tablespoons water
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup frozen blueberries
First, preheat your oven to 350 degress and make your chia eggs by mixing the 1 tablespoon chia seeds and 2 tablespoons water in the bottom of a mixing bowl (see note below if you don't have chia seeds and don't want to buy any). Next, add the rest of the ingredients except the blueberries and mix well.
Put the blueberries in the bottom of an 8x8 pan, and dump the oatmeal mixture on top. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the top is browned a bit.
I like to eat it right out of the pan, but others tell me it's much tastier broken up in a bowl with some hemp milk poured over it. :-)
Time: about 30 minutes
Servings: 6 (149 calories/serving)
P.S. If you don't have chia seeds and/or don't want to buy any, you can replace the chia gel (the chia seeds + the water) with a flax "egg", or just mash in a half of a banana.
