Ingredients
Scale
Dry Ingredients
- 2 cups rolled oats
- 1 1/2 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp cinnamon
- 1/4 tsp salt
Wet Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups almond milk
- 1/4 cup maple syrup
- 2 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/4 cup peanut butter
- 1/4 cup jelly
Instructions
- Preheat Oven and Prepare Dish: Preheat your oven to 400°F (205°C). Grease or line an 8×8 inch baking dish to prevent sticking.
- Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine rolled oats, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt. Stir well until everything is evenly mixed.
- Add Wet Ingredients: Add almond milk, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and peanut butter to the dry ingredients. Mix thoroughly until all wet ingredients are fully incorporated into the oats.
- Assemble Batter: Pour the oatmeal batter into the prepared baking dish. Dollop the jelly evenly over the top of the batter. Use a knife to gently swirl the jelly into the oatmeal mixture to create a marbled effect.
- Bake: Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 35 to 40 minutes, or until the oatmeal is set in the center and the edges are lightly golden.
- Cool and Serve: Remove the baked oatmeal from the oven and let it cool for 10 minutes. Cut into four pieces, serve with your favorite toppings, and enjoy a delicious, hearty breakfast.
Notes
- You can substitute almond milk with any other milk or milk alternative you prefer.
- For added texture, consider adding chopped nuts or seeds to the batter before baking.
- Make sure to swirl the jelly gently to avoid mixing it completely for a pretty marbled look and balanced flavor.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days and reheat before serving.
