Baked Apple Pie Oatmeal with Sweet Cinnamon Coconut Milk Sauce (Vegan)


Baked Apple Pie Oatmeal with Sweet Cinnamon Coconut Milk Sauce

You guys are in for a treat with this one! I was lucky enough to recently receive a box of products from Marsham International, which inspired me to roll up my sleeves and bake. I'm generally pretty unlucky when it comes to baking, but, I figured an oatmeal bake would be a pretty safe bet. Plus, I was headed to a monthly brunch with some ladies in the Health and Wellness industry, and needed to come up with a Fall inspired dish that I hadn't made for them before! This recipe definitely didn't disappoint, and had everyone splitting leftovers to take home.

The perfect warm breakfast for crisp Fall mornings or the upcoming holidays is this baked apple pie oatmeal. Along with being completely satisfying and comforting, baked oatmeal is also a great option for a nutritious, make-ahead dish! Did I mention it's topped off with a warm, cinnamon-y coconut milk sauce? It doesn't get much better than that.

This recipe is also easily customizable to make with your favourite fruit! Tired of apple? Try blueberry, or strawberry banana! Or, spice up your apple game and toss in some walnuts and raisins. The options are endless.
