  • Add the milk, maple and vanilla and mix, press and mix. If the mixture starts drying out, add 1-2 tbsp more milk. Even it out.
  • Sprinkle cinnamon sugar (optional) on top and Bake for 30 to 35 mins (depending on preference of texture of the baked oatmeal). Let it sit for a few mins, then serve warm with maple syrup, or whipped coconut cream, fruit/fruit compote or vegan butter.
