Okay, but sticky date pudding for breakfast?
Very into it.
These sticky date baked oats are basically the cosy, caramel-y dessert situation we all love, just made into a nourishing breakfast that actually keeps you going through the morning.
Soft baked oats, juicy Medjool dates, cinnamon, vanilla and a little nut butter, finished with the easiest sticky date sauce.
We love a breakfast that brings together fibre, protein and healthy fats. Itâs a simple way to make your meal more satisfying and support steady energy, rather than having something that leaves you hungry again an hour later đŹ
And you genuinely donât need loads of added sugar here. The dates do most of the sweetening, while also adding fibre and that gorgeous sticky caramel flavour.
STICKY DATE BAKED OATS
1 ripe banana, mashed
1 cup rolled oats
3/4 cup milk of choice
4â5 Medjool dates, finely chopped
1 tbsp nut butter
1 tsp cinnamon
1 tsp vanilla
1/2 tsp baking powder
1 tbsp chia seeds or ground flaxseed
Pinch of sea salt
For the sticky date sauce:
2 Medjool dates
2 tbsp milk of choice
1 tsp nut butter
Pinch of sea salt
Preheat your oven to 180°C.
Mash the banana, then mix in the milk, vanilla and nut butter.
Add the oats, chopped dates, cinnamon, baking powder, chia or flax and salt. Give everything a good mix and pour into a small baking dish.
Bake for 25â30 minutes, until golden on top and set in the middle.
For the sauce, gently warm the dates, milk, nut butter and salt together until the dates soften. Mash until smooth and caramel-like, adding a splash more milk if needed.
Pour over your baked oats while theyâre warm.
Add some coconut yoghurt or an extra spoonful of nut butter on top if youâre feeling fancy.
Making the thing youâre craving in a way that gives your body a little more of what it needs!
Save this one for your next slow morning đ¤
