Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup rolled oats
- 0.5 teaspoon baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup milk (dairy or non-dairy)
- 0.25 cup orange juice
- 2 tablespoons maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 large egg
- 0.75 cup fresh strawberries, diced
- 1 teaspoon orange zest
- 2 tablespoons chopped nuts (optional, e.g., almonds or pecans)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease four ramekins or a similar-sized oven-safe dish.
In a medium mixing bowl, combine rolled oats, baking powder, ground cinnamon, and salt. Stir until evenly combined.
In a separate bowl, whisk together milk, orange juice, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and egg until smooth.
Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl with the dry ingredients. Stir until just combined.
Gently fold in the diced strawberries and orange zest. Be careful not to overmix.
Divide the oatmeal mixture evenly between the greased ramekins. Fill each ramekin about 3/4 full.
Sprinkle chopped nuts on top of each portion, if using, for an added crunch.
Place the ramekins on a baking sheet for easier handling and bake in the preheated oven for 22-25 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown and the oatmeal is set.
Remove from the oven and let cool for 5 minutes before serving. These can be enjoyed warm or at room temperature.
