Ingredients
1 cup whole wheat pastry flour (or white whole wheat or all-purpose flour)
1 cup old-fashioned rolled oats
½ cup cane sugar, or substitute with your favorite granulated sweetener
¼ tsp salt
¼ tsp baking soda
3 tbsp vegetable oil (or melted coconut oil)
6 tbsp unsweetened vanilla almond milk
6 oz vanilla Greek yogurt
Assorted fresh berries (blueberries, raspberries, strawberries)
Instructions
Preheat oven to 350°F and line an 11×7-inch pan with foil.
In a bowl, whisk flour, oats, sugar, salt, and baking soda.
Stir in oil and almond milk until dough forms.
Press dough into pan and smooth the top.
Bake for 25 minutes until edges are golden and center is set.
Cool 10 minutes in pan, then lift out and cool completely.
Spread yogurt on top and decorate with berries in a flag pattern.
Notes
Cool completely before topping with yogurt to prevent sogginess. For best results, decorate just before serving. Certified gluten-free oats and flour can be used.
