What it having cake for breakfast was suddenly healthy? This can be just as good and it'll last for 4-5 days in your fridge.
- 1 1/2 cup oats (I like to use rolled oats but steel cut ones work pretty well too )
- 1 cup milk (whole, almond, rice, cashew, which ever you like best)
- 1 egg, small (for vegan or egg-free alternative you can use a mashed banana)
- 2 tablespoons honey (or maple syrup if you prefer)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (or a vanilla bean if you're fancy)
- a pinch of salt
- a pinch of cinnamon
- 1 tablespoon butter, room temperature
- 1/8 cup dark chocolate chips
- 1/8 cup chia seeds
- 1/4 cup mixed nuts
- 1/8 cup goji berries
- a baking pan (I use a 12" seasoned cast iron skillet)
- oven, preheated at 195ºC
- two mixing bowls
- In a bowl, mix the oats, chocolate chips, chia seeds, goji berries and mixed nuts. Set aside.
- In a separate bowl, mix the milk and butter until the butter is dissolved. Add egg (or banana) and mix well. Add the honey, cinnamon and salt. Mix again.
- Slowly pour little by little the liquid mix to the oats mix and let rest for five minutes.
- On the meantime, butter your baking dish.
- After five minutes, pour your oats and milk mix in your baking dish. Bake for 30-45 minutes or until set and golden brown.
- Let rest and cool for a few minutes before serving. (Serving with a bit of butter, honey, and fresh berries is my personal favorite.)
