Meal prep your weekday breakfast with our delicious Gluten Free Baked Oatmeal! It's full of fresh fruit and it's whole grain, healthy, and allergy friendly.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Line an 8x8-inch square pan with parchment paper or lightly spray the bottom of the pan with oil. Set aside.
Combine the oats, baking powder, and salt in a medium bowl. Set aside.
Mix together the canned coconut milk, maple syrup, golden flax meal, vanilla, lemon zest, and Stevia drops (if using), and let this flax mixture rest for about 10 minutes to thicken.Don't skip this part! You can also warm this up in the microwave a little bit (like 45 seconds) to help thicken this a little faster. The flaxseed will gel up to make this thicker, and it holds the recipe together. The flaxseed replaces eggs in this recipe.
Once the flax meal mixture has thickened, mix in the oat mixture and the diced strawberries. Pour into the prepared pan and spread evenly.
Bake for 30-35 minutes until set and lightly golden brown.
Remove from oven and cool for about 15 minutes before cutting. Cut into squares and serve with or without milk. Enjoy!
