  • 2 1/2 cups full-fat canned coconut milk or non-dairy milk of choice
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 cup blueberries or berry of choice
  • 1 banana sliced
  • 1/4 cup unsweetened shredded coconut

Method
 

Instructions
  1. Step 1: Preheat the Oven
    Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). This ensures that your oatmeal bakes evenly and thoroughly.
  2. Step 2: Mix the Dry Ingredients
    In a large mixing bowl, combine the gluten-free rolled oats, coconut sugar, baking powder, sea salt, and ground cinnamon. Stir well to ensure everything is evenly distributed.
  3. Step 3: Combine the Wet Ingredients
    In another bowl, whisk together the coconut milk and eggs until well combined. This will create a creamy mixture that binds the oatmeal together.
  4. Step 4: Combine Wet and Dry Mixtures
    Pour the wet mixture into the bowl with the dry ingredients. Stir until just combined, being careful not to overmix.
  5. Step 5: Fold in the Add-Ins
    Gently fold in the blueberries, sliced banana, shredded coconut, raisins, chocolate chips, and almond butter. This step adds texture and flavor to your oatmeal.
  6. Step 6: Transfer to Baking Dish
    Pour the mixture into a greased baking dish, spreading it out evenly. Smooth the top with a spatula.
  7. Step 7: Bake
    Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  8. Step 8: Cool and Serve
    Once baked, remove from the oven and let it cool for about 10 minutes. Serve warm, topped with coconut whipped cream and a drizzle of Paleo Salted Caramel if desired.
