This is so delicious no need to eat it just in the morning! Great anytime of day or night! But for simplicity sake I'm just putting it under the Morning Grain Bowl category!
Ingredients and Method:
1 cup of quick oats: put into a large bowl and cover with boiling water! Add as many raisins as you like. A dash of salt and cinnamon as well. Cover and let sit for about 20-30 minutes till water is absorbed.
For today's grain bowl : Blend 1/2 cup mashed leftover sweet potatoes plus 2 dates, 1/2 cup organic mango peach juice and 1 tbsp. maple syrup! Mix this into the oat mixture along with 1 diced fresh or frozen banana.. Pour into an ovenproof dish. See my photo below for what I used. You can either line with parchment paper or grease lightly with coconut oil.
Put into oven at 375F for about 45 minutes! I used a toaster oven as mine is large enough for the typical size round cake pan (9" I believe).
While still warm scoop into a bowl. Top with more fresh sliced bananas and sprinkle with hemp seeds! A drizzle of maple syrup and you're ready to enjoy the best ever bowl of baked oatmeal! so good!
You can let it cool and eat as slices later as it sets up when chilled. Or reheat back to it's original out of the oven pudding texture! I like it both ways!
