Ingredients  

• 225g 100% Rolled Oats
• 30g desiccated coconut
• 1 tbsp. cinnamon
• 1 tsp. nutmeg
• Pinch of salt
• 600ml almond milk
• 80g maple syrup
• 2 tbsp. 100% Coconut Oil
• 1 egg
• 1 tsp. vanilla paste or extract
• 250g blueberries
• 250g raspberries

Method

1. First, preheat your oven to 180°C/350°F.
2. Then, in a large mixing bowl, add the oats, coconut, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt, and mix well before setting aside.
3. Next, in another mixing bowl, add the almond milk, maple syrup, half of the coconut oil, egg, and vanilla and mix well.
4. Now, add your oat mixture to the wet mixture and stir thoroughly so all combined.
5. Then, lightly grease your baking dish with the rest of the coconut oil (melt it first) and add half of the blueberries and raspberries.
6. Mash your berries with a potato masher or fork — don’t worry if they aren’t all completely mashed — and then add your oats mixture on top.
7. Flatten your oats out to create an even surface and add the remaining berries to the dish.
8. Bake in the oven for 40 minutes before removing and allowing to cool before serving.
9. Serve with a drizzle of maple syrup or a squirt of whipped cream if you’re feeling indulgent.
