March 18, 2019
Unless you're a super zen, early rising superhuman, mornings are often mayhem. Getting yourself ready and out the door on time AND being fed properly is a mission. Throw in a few extra tiny humans to round up, and you're lucky to have even a hot coffee let alone a proper breakfast. But as we all know, breakfast IS the most important meal of the day.
So this Meatless Monday is dedicated you, the morning chaos crew who need a simpler breakfast without sacrificing nutrition. You're welcome.
Apple Pie Oatmeal Breakfast Bake
Author: Rise Shine Cook
Ingredients:
3 cups large diced apple (about 2 large or 3 small apples)
2
flax eggs (2 tablespoons ground flaxseed mixed with 5 tablespoons warm water) or 2 traditional eggs
2 teaspoons baking powder
2 teaspoons cinnamon
¼ teaspoon nutmeg
3 ½ cups unsweetened almond milk
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
Instructions:
- Preheat the oven to 175 degrees.
- Chop the apples and transfer to a large bowl of water with a squeeze of lemon (this prevents browning).
- Make the flax eggs by mixing 2 tablespoons ground flaxseed with 5 tablespoons of warm water in a small bowl. Set aside and let sit for 5 minutes.
- In a large bowl mix the rolled oats, nuts, sultanas, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, chia seeds, hemp seeds and salt.
- Add the following to a blender: almond milk, maple syrup, vanilla, and flax eggs/eggs. Blend until smooth. You can also whisk this by hand in a bowl but I find the blender much easier.
- Add the blender mixture to the dry ingredients and mix.
- Strain the apples well and add to the bowl and mix. The mixture will seem loose, this is ok.
- Transfer the mix to an 9x9 casserole dish or non-stick brownie pan. Cover with foil and bake for 50 minutes.
- After 50 minutes remove the foil, sprinkle the coconut sugar (if using) on top and continue to bake for another 20 minutes.
- Remove from the oven and let sit for 10 minutes. Slice and serve!
