Ingredients

Dry Ingredients:

  • 1 cup old fashioned oats
  • 2 tablespoons almond flour (or use more oats to keep it nut-free)
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 2 teaspoon chia seeds
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1/4 cup finely chopped sun-dried tomato
  • 1 tablespoon nutritional yeast (optional)
  • 1/4 cup chopped bell pepper
  • 2-3 tablespoons vegan mozzarella (shredded optional)
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh basil (or use 1 teaspoons dried)
  • 3 tablespoons chopped green onions (keep the green part for garnish)

Wet Ingredients:

  • 1 cup broth or water (or use 1/3 cup marinara and 3/4 cup water)
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce (or tamari for Glutenfree)
  • 2 teaspoons extra virgin olive oil (optional)

To top:

  • sliced tomato for topping
  • vegan Parmesan or vegan mozzarella for topping
  • green onion or chopped basil for topping

Method

  1. Grease an 8x8 inch or 9x9 inch baking dish or line with parchment.
  2. Add all the dry ingredients, the oats, almond flour, baking powder, chia seeds, salt, all the spices, herbs, and sun-dried tomato and mix well.
  3. Then add in the peppers, basil, and green onion and mix well.
  4. Then add in the wet ingredients and mix until all the oats are hydrated. Then even it out with a spatula.
  5. Top the oats with some vegan parmesan or vegan mozzarella then add a layer of tomatoes.
  6. Bake at 350 degrees Fahrenheit (180 c) for 30-35 minutes. Check the center if it's not too soft and sticky, that means it's done.
  7. Take the dish out from the oven and let it sit for 10 minutes and garnish with some green onion or fresh basil, then slice.
  8. Let it sit for another 5 -10 minutes to cool so that it's easy to take it out of the pan. Even if the slices are not very well-formed, it's still going to be super tasty.
  9. You want to serve it like a breakfast bake. You can serve it as is or serve it with a side of chopped tomato or some marinara sauce if you like.
