Ingredients
2tablespoonsmelted and cooled coconut oil (can also sub melted butter)
½cup(128 grams) natural creamy peanut butter (only peanuts and salt)
2tablespoonspure maple syrup
2large eggs, at room temperature
¾cups(180 grams) milk of choice (I use almond milk)
1teaspoonvanilla extract
2cups(190 grams) old fashioned rolled oats, gluten free if desired
1teaspoonbaking powder
½teaspooncinnamon
¼teaspoonkosher salt
⅓cuplow sugar strawberry or raspberry jam
Instructions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Grease an 8x8 inch baking pan with nonstick cooking spray.
In a large bowl, add in melted and cooled coconut oil, peanut butter, maple syrup, eggs, almond milk and vanilla. Whisk together until well combined and no large lumps of peanut butter remain.
Fold in oats, baking powder, cinnamon and salt. Pour into the prepared pan and make sure oatmeal is evenly spread out.
Drop jam by heaping teaspoonful onto oatmeal bake, then very gently swirl with a knife 1 to 2 times back and forth. Don't swirl too much or the jam with drop to the bottom of the batter.
Bake for 25 to 35 minutes until barely golden brown. Cut into 6 servings and enjoy with milk, greek yogurt or fresh berries. I also love it with a little extra peanut butter on top.
Notes
Leftovers should be kept in an airtight container in the fridge for up 5 days. See post for freezing instructions.Feel free to bake into 8-10 individual oatmeal cups for an easy, portable breakfast. Use muffin liners and spray with nonstick cooking spray.
