Coconut Chocolate Chip Baked Oatmeal
This makes 8 servings as a stand alone dish. If you are serving it with other sides, you can stretch it a little further.
Servings: 8 servings
Ingredients
- 4 cups old-fashioned rolled oats
- 1 1/2 cups walnuts
- 1 1/2 cup unsweetened coconut
- 1 cup coconut sugar
- 2 tsp baking powder
- 1 cup organic chocolate chips
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- 1 tsp salt
- 3 eggs
- 4 cups unsweetened coconut milk or the milk of your choice
- 1 tbsp vanilla extract
- 1 unsalted butter, melted 1/2 cup
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Prepare a 9x13 pan with butter or coconut oil.
- Combine all dry ingredients in a large bowl - oats, walnuts, coconut, coconut sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt. Stir to combine.
- Combine all wet ingredients in a second, smaller bowl - eggs, coconut milk, vanilla extract, and melted butter. Whisk until the ingredients are uniform. Add wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and stir to combine.
- Pour oatmeal batter into the prepared dish. (I like to sprinkle a few extra walnuts and coconut over the top.)
- Bake for 45-55 minutes or until the top is nice and golden and the oatmeal mixture has set.
- Remove from oven and let stand for 10 minutes. Serve warm!
- Baked oatmeal is wonderful straight from the oven but is also delicious with a splash of cream or milk poured over the top - or a drizzle of maple syrup! Leftovers should be stored covered in the refrigerator. They heat very well the next day in the microwave.
