What I Cooked: Pt. 11
Baked Bluberry & Cinnamon Oatmeal
2 cups oats
3/4 cup mylk
1 cup unsweetened applesauce
1-4 cup flax meal
2 mashed ripe bananas
1 1/2 tablespoons ceylon cinnamon
½ teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 cups wild blueberries
Mix all ingredients together in the pan you are going to bake it in (why dirty more then dishes then necessary!). Either store in the fridge over night or bake right away. Bake at 350 degrees for 30 min.
Basic Energy Balls
1 cup Natural Peanut Butter
1/2 cup Maple Syrup
3 cups Oats
1/4 cup Flax Meal
1/4 cup Hemp Hearts
1/2 cup Mini Vegan Chocolate Chips
Mix all ingredients together in a bowl. Shape into balls and refrigerate!
A really yummy side dish for dinner or easy lunch! The recipe linked is a great starting point. I omitted the oil + white wine and added a splash of white wine vinegar. Easy and so yummy!
Sometimes it is just more fun to eat a baked donut then a muffin, even if they are almost the same thing. I used the linked recipe for inspiration, then veganified and healthified it with these alterations:
1 egg = 1 tbsp flax meal + 3 tbsp water
butter = vegan butter (Melt or Earth Balance)
buttermilk = any dairy free mylk, combined with a splash or vinegar
For the glaze, I made a simple “glaze” out of peanut butter, mylk, maple syrup and water. Literally made it up as I went, altering the ratios as I tasted it.
