Raspberry Pistachio Baked Oats

I have the best Mom who loves to garden. She’s is always up for a “U-Pick” situation and I’m happy to enjoy the reward! Earlier this week she brought me a quart of fresh picked raspberries and they are soooo good. Reminds me of childhood when I would go out to my Grandpa’s garden and pick them from the vine – so sweet. This baked oatmeal is the perfect make-ahead breakfast. It’s so creamy and delicious and bursting with summery goodness!

1. Preheat oven to 325 and lightly coat an 8×8 baking dish (or similar size).
2. Combine oats, crushed pistachios, baking powder, cinnamon and salt in a large mixing bowl.

3. In a separate bowl, combine eggs, melted coconut oil, maple syrup, almond milk, vanilla and lemon zest/juice.

4. Add wet ingredients to dry ingredients and stir to combine.

5. Fold in raspberries and spread mixture into the prepared pan. Bake for 45-50 minutes, or until the top is golden brown. Once out of the oven, let rest for 10 minutes before serving. Serve topped with a drizzle of pure maple syrup for an added pop of sweetness.
