This Strawberry Baked Oatmeal makes a hearty breakfast that's easy to make! Oats are high in fiber which will help keep you feeling full until lunch. They're also a great source of iron and prebiotic fiber.
Preheat oven to 375 F and line a 9x9 baking pan with parchment paper. Add the ground flax to the milk and mix together, set aside. In a large bowl, add the oats, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon and salt (if using) and mix together. Then, add in apple sauce, milk+flax mixture, maple or date syrup and apple cider vinegar. Stir until eveything is combined. Lastly stir in the strawberries.
Transfer the mixture to baking pan. Bake in the oven for about 40 minutes. It will turn a light golden brown on top. Check with a toothpick to make sure it comes out clean. Allow it to cool for just about 5 minutes or so. Then serve with more strawberries, dairy-free yogurt, more date/maple syrup, nut butters or your other favorite oatmeal toppings. Store leftovers in the fridge up to 4 days.
