Introduction

This recipe is an adaptation of two oatmeal recipes I've found. One was for stove-top zucchini oats, and another for baked fruity oatmeal. This combines the two in a wonderfully flavored, filling high-fiber breakfast! This recipe is an adaptation of two oatmeal recipes I've found.

Ingredients

    DRY:
    2 cups old fashioned oats
    1/4 cup chia seed (or ground flax)
    1/4 cup raisins (optional, but included)
    2 T. chopped pecans
    1 tsp baking powder
    1 1/2 tsp. cinnamon
    1/4 tsp nutmeg
    pinch salt

    WET:
    1 1/2 cups unsweetened almond milk
    1/4 cup pure maple syrup
    1 1/2 cups shredded zucchini (skin on is fine)
    2 tsp vanilla

    STREUSEL TOPPING (optional, but included):
    1 T. butter
    3. T. brown sugar
    2 T. chopped pecans

Directions

Preheat oven to 375 degrees.

In a large bowl, combine all dry ingredients, followed by wet ingredients. Mix well, and spread into a greased 9 x 9 baking dish.

Bake at 375 for 20-25 minutes until the top is slightly brown and oats are set.

*OPTIONAL TOPPING:
In a small bowl, mix streusel topping, and crumble over the baked oats. Set oven to broil, and return oats to the oven for 1-2 minutes until streusel is melted and bubbly. (Watch carefully so it does not burn!)

Serve hot, with a splash of milk if desired.

----------

*NOTE* To cut calories/fat from this recipe, omit the topping and/or added nuts and raisins. If you can "afford" the calories, however, the nuts and raisins add a delicious contrast in flavor and texture to the zucchini and oats.
