Ingredients

Wet Ingredients

  • 2 eggs
  • 2 cups almond milk
  • 1/2 cup dark brown sugar
  • 1/4 cup melted butter
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • Zest and juice of 1 lemon

Dry Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt

Add-ins

  • 1/2 cup sliced almonds, plus more for the top
  • 2 cups chopped strawberries, plus more for the top

Instructions

  1. Preheat and Prepare Dish: Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit (175 degrees Celsius) and grease a 9-inch deep pie dish to prevent sticking.
  2. Mix Wet Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, almond milk, dark brown sugar, melted butter, vanilla extract, and lemon zest thoroughly until well combined.
  3. Add Dry Ingredients: Stir in the rolled oats, baking powder, ground cinnamon, and salt into the wet mixture, mixing until fully incorporated.
  4. Fold in Almonds and Strawberries: Gently fold the sliced almonds and chopped fresh strawberries into the oatmeal batter, ensuring an even distribution without overmixing.
  5. Transfer and Top: Pour the oatmeal batter into the greased baking dish and evenly spread it out. Top with additional sliced strawberries and almonds for garnish.
  6. Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 30 to 40 minutes, or until the oatmeal is almost set and lightly golden around the edges.
  7. Cool and Serve: Allow the baked oatmeal to cool slightly before serving. It can be enjoyed warm or at room temperature.
