How to make Gingerbread Baked Oatmeal
Step 1: Prepare the oven. Preheat it to 375 degrees F. Using cooking spray, grease an 8-inch square baking dish.
Step 2: Place the oats, baking powder, cinnamon, cloves, ginger, and salt in a large mixing bowl. Mix well until blended. Then, pour in the milk. Add the bananas, maple syrup, molasses, coconut oil, flaxseed, and vanilla. Mix well. Lastly, gently fold in 1/4 c walnuts.
Step 3: Into the prepared baking dish, pour the oatmeal mixture. On top, scatter the walnuts.
Step 4: Place in the preheated oven and bake for about 30 to 35 minutes or until the top is golden and the center is set. When done, take the dish out of the oven and allow the baked oatmeal to cool for a couple of minutes.
Step 5: In the meantime, place the coconut butter, almond milk, and maple syrup in a small saucepan over low heat, stirring until warm and the mixture begins to thicken enough to drizzle.
Step 6: Over the gingerbread, baked oatmeal, drizzle the icing. Enjoy!
Notes:
If needed, you can swap half c applesauce for the bananas.
Feel free to use egg in place of flaxseed.
Tent the entire baked oatmeal with foil and pop it in the oven. Reheat for about 20 minutes at 350 degrees F. If reheating individual portions, pop them in the toaster for about 5 to 10 minutes at 350 degrees F or in the microwave for about a minute.
