Ingredients
Dry Ingredients
- 2 cups old fashioned rolled oats
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- ½ teaspoon sea salt
- 1 Tablespoon ground flaxseed
- ¼ cup chopped/crushed graham crackers
Wet Ingredients
- 2 cups unsweetened almond milk
- ¼ cup pure maple syrup (plus more for serving)
- 1 Tablespoon melted coconut oil
- ½ cup applesauce
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Toppings
- ½ cup chopped chocolate or chocolate chips (divided)
- ½ cup mini marshmallows (divided)
Instructions
- Prep: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly spray an 8×8 inch square baking dish with cooking spray to prevent sticking.
- Mix Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, almond milk, pure maple syrup, baking powder, sea salt, ground flaxseed, melted coconut oil, applesauce, vanilla extract, along with ¼ cup of the chocolate chips and ¼ cup of the mini marshmallows. Stir everything thoroughly until well mixed.
- Pour Mixture: Carefully pour the oatmeal mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it evenly.
- Add Toppings: Sprinkle the top evenly with the crushed graham crackers, then scatter the remaining ¼ cup chocolate chips and ¼ cup mini marshmallows over the surface.
- Bake: Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 40-45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, indicating that the oatmeal is fully cooked through.
- Cool and Serve: Remove from the oven and let the baked oatmeal cool for 10-15 minutes. Then, cut into 6 portions and serve warm. You can drizzle extra maple syrup on top if desired for added sweetness.
Notes
- For a vegan version, ensure marshmallows are vegan or omit them altogether.
- You can substitute almond milk with any other plant-based milk or dairy milk.
- Adjust sweetness by adding more or less maple syrup according to taste.
- Adding a pinch of cinnamon or nutmeg can add extra warmth and flavor.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days and reheat before serving.
