Equipment

  • 9x9 casserole dish
  • Baking sheet
  • Various sized mixing bowls

Ingredients
 

US Customary - Metric

Dry

  • ½ cup pecans (roughly chopped)
  • 2 ½ cups rolled oats
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 ½ teaspoons cinnamon
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ cup coconut sugar

Wet

  • 2 tablespoons ground flaxseed
  • 6 tablespoons water
  • 2 tablespoons vegan butter
  • 2 cups soy milk (unsweetened)
  • 1 medium ripe banana (mashed)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 ¼ cups frozen berries

Garnishes optional

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F and lightly grease a 9x9 baking dish with coconut oil or vegan butter.
  • Mix the ground flaxseed and water in a small bowl. Set aside for 5 minutes to thicken.

Pecans

  • When the oven is ready, toast the chopped pecans on a baking sheet for 3-4 minutes, or until lightly browned and fragrant.

Dry ingredients

  • In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the rolled oats, baking powder, cinnamon, salt, and coconut sugar.

Wet ingredients

  • Melt the vegan butter in a heat-safe bowl. Add it to the bowl of dry ingredients along with the soy milk, flax egg, mashed banana, toasted pecans, and vanilla, stirring to combine.

Assembly

  • Cover the bottom of your baking dish generously with frozen berries (about 1 ½ cups). Layer the oatmeal mixture over the berries, then add the remaining berries on top.
  • Bake for 35-40 minutes (or more for firmer baked oats). Let it rest for 10 minutes, then serve warm with garnishes of your choosing. Happy eating!

Notes

  • Prep flax eggs first: You’ll need about 5-10 minutes for the flaxseed and water mixture to thicken. Combine these before anything else!
  • Use rolled oats: For the best texture and slightly sweeter flavor, use old-fashioned rolled oats instead of quick or steel-cut oats.
  • Let the bananas ripen: Make sure your banana is extra ripe, which will provide natural sweetness and a creamier texture.
  • Add a touch of salt: We can’t stress adding salt enough! It really brings out the sweet flavors of recipes like baked berry oatmeal.
  • Nutritional information is a rough estimate and should not be taken as health advice.
