Ingredients

OATMEAL:

  • 1 cup thick-cut Rolled oats, organic
  • 1 orange, freshly-squeezed
  • 2 cups Almond milk (You can use water or your fave plant-based milk instead!)
  • 1 (14 oz.) can full-fat coconut milk/cream (You can sub with your fave plant-based milk; See Notes!)
  • 1 (7 oz.) can dairy-free condensed milk
  • ¼ cup pure maple syrup
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • ¼ teaspoon ground allspice
  • Pinch of sea salt

ROASTED ORANGES:

  • 1 orange, sliced thin with skin on
  • 2 Tbsps Extra virgin olive oil
  • ¼ cup organic brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • ½ teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • teaspoon ground cloves
  • Pinch of ground allspice
  • Pinch of sea salt

OPTIONAL TOPPINGS:

  • Chopped toasted pecans (You can also use your fave nuts)
  • Drizzle of maple syrup
  • Granola, homemade or store-bought

Instructions

TO MAKE THE ROASTED ORANGES:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Place each slice of orange unto the prepared baking sheet (side by side and flat). Drizzle each slice with olive oil and sprinkle with brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, and allspice.
  • Add them to the oven and bake for 10-15 minutes or until edges are brown and oranges become caramelized. NOTE: Be sure to monitor the oranges to ensure that they don't brown too quickly or burn.

TO MAKE THE OATMEAL:

  • Add oats, coconut milk, Almond milk, cinnamon, allspice, and sea salt to a medium saucepan over medium-high heat, stirring until everything is combined. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low so that everything simmers for 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  • Once done, oats should thicken and become swollen + fluffy and creamy with half the the liquid still remaining. Stir in the dairy-free condensed milk, maple syrup, orange juice, vanilla, and let it simmer for an additional 2-3 minutes before removing it from heat.
  • To serve, portion oatmeal into serving bowl(s) and top with caramelized sliced oranges, your fave nuts, and/or granola, if desired.
  • Bon Appetit!

Notes

  • STORAGE: Can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. Perfect for meal prep for the week!
  • OVERNIGHT OPTION: Simply add all oatmeal ingredients to a bowl and mix together until combined. Tightly cover bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight (or at least 8 hours). On the day of, roast the oranges per the recipe and once ready to serve, top overnight oats with toppings and enjoy.
  • TOASTED NUTS: Add chopped walnuts/pecans/almonds, etc. to a baking sheet and toasting them in the oven (400 degrees Fahrenheit) for 5-10 minutes, tossing them halfway to avoid browning on one side.
  • COCONUT CREAM: I love using canned coconut cream from Thai Kitchen or Edwards & Son's, however, you can always use canned coconut milk as well and refrigerate it overnight to thicken and create more creaminess.  
  • WHAT PLANT-BASED MILKS ARE GOOD FOR THIS RECIPE? You can always use your fave plant-based milk instead of full-fat coconut cream/milk. Any one of the following works: Almondcoconut milk, homemade oat milk (froths/foams VERY WELL), homemade cashew milk, flax milk, etc.
  • EQUIPMENT: Here, I’ve curated a list of cooking + baking essentials that I use to achieve my favorite baked goods or cooked meals, especially with this Maple Cinnamon Oatmeal + Roasted Oranges. Everything from my fave baking sheet, dutch ovens, wooden spoons, high-powered blender, and more. SEE THEM HERE!
