Baked Oatmeal

What memories does the word oatmeal bring to your mind? As a child, I grew up on oatmeal and I knew it as the cereal in the round can. At my grandmother’s house it came in tiny packages, all different flavors – just add water and those tiny pieces of fruit would plump up. As I got older, that same oatmeal was in every hotel in the continental breakfast room in those same tiny packages. Fancy hotels still had oatmeal – but now – it was it a big pot steaming with lots of toppings with silver lids and spoons. Yes, oatmeal has been a part of my life forever. My parents used to tell me, “It will stick to your ribs and you won’t get cold when you walk to school.” Of course, I believed them. I even told my daughter the same story. I even have gotten my granddaughter to eat oatmeal by putting frozen blueberries in the hot oatmeal and turning the oatmeal purple. I told her that it was Frozen Oatmeal from the movie and that the princesses eat this delicious dish. We have renamed this wonderful purple dish, “Castle Cereal!!” 

Baked Oatmeal

Oatmeal has a long history in Scottish culinary tradition because oats are better suited than wheat to the country’s low temperatures and high humidity. As a result, oats became the staple grain of Scotland. The ancient universities of Scotland had a holiday called Meal Monday to permit students to return to their farms and collect more oats for food.

Baked Oatmeal

Oats are a staple that we need to all have in our food storage. Like I have said before, store what you eat and eat what you store. Oats are a softer grain and they don’t last nearly as long as the harder grains. The best way to store oatmeal is in the whole grain form called oat groats and invest in a flaker or grain roller to have fresh rolled oatmeal for freshest and whole grain nutrition. Kitchen Kneads sources wonderful oat groats, steel cut oats, and quick and regular rolled oats.  Come to the store and stock up for your storage.

Baked Oatmeal

Oats are a whole grain food, known scientifically as Avena Sativa. There are many health benefits of eating oats, more than just sticking to our ribs and keeping us warm in the cold.

  1. The nutrient composition of oats is well-balanced.
  2. Oats are a good source of carbs and fiber, including the powerful fiber beta-glucan.
  3. Oats contain more protein and fat than most grains.
  4. Oats are loaded with manganese, phosphorus, magnesium, copper, iron, zinc, folate, and vitamins B1 and B5.
  5. Oats are among the most nutrient-dense foods we can eat.
  6. Rich in antioxidants called polyphenols.
  7. Aid in reduced LSL and total CHL level.
  8. Reduced blood augar and insulin response.
  9. Increased feeling of fulness.
  10. Increased growth of good bacteria in the digestive tract.
  11. Finely ground oats may help with skin care.

The most popular way to eat oats is for to simply make a porridge. ½ cup oatmeal, 1 cup water, and a pinch of salt. Combine ingredients in a pot and bring to boil. Reduce heat to a simmer and cook the oats, stirring occasionally. Top with milk, nuts, cinnamon, and/or yogurt. Oats are also used in baked goods, muesli, granola, and bread. Oats can be cooked and eaten as oat groats (the whole oat) or steel cut oats, oatmeal porridge. or ground into an oat flour and used in breads or pancakes. And let’s not forget the endless ways to make oatmeal cookies. This is one of the most versatile grains grown. Many of the oats grown in the world are from the United States along with Russia, Poland, and Europe.

New Year’s Eve is always an exciting time of the year.  I always like to have good foods, watch movies, spend it with family.   I enjoy crepes.  My daughter makes delicious crepes.  What exactly is a crepe you ask?  It is a very thin pancake derived from the Latin work crispus which means curled.  I found this recipe that used Cassava flour.  I decided to try it so I would have another gluten free recipe in my toolbox for guests and family who are gluten free.  This recipe is delicious.  I will use this recipe often as the flavors blend, the strawberry jam with the added power pack of chia seeds is by far one of the best jams I’ve ever made. 

Vanilla Cassava Crepes with Strawberry Chia Jam

I really love to learn about grains and the health benefits of different grains and flours.  Cassava is the plant that tapioca is made.  Cassava is grown in the tropical and subtropical regions of the world.  Cassava has an ample amount of dietary fiber and is gluten-free.  This carbohydrate rich food serves as an excellent source of energy and provides fuel to keep your brain functioning properly.  Each serving gives you 79.8 grams if carbohydrates or 61% of the 130 grams recommended for daily consumption by the Institute of medicine. It is neutral and mild in flavor and is a perfect substitute for wheat flour.  It is packed with calcium, phosphorus, manganese, magnesium, Vitamin A and C, and beta-carotene.   Each serving boasts 1.6g of protein.  If Cassava is a flour that you are going to use a lot of, supplement your diet with protein rich foods to meet the suggested intake of 46-56g per day. Some of the other benefits of Cassava are: rich in carbohydrates, aids in healthy skin and hair, aids in prevention of diabetes by being low in glycemic index when cooked, and aids in weight loss.  Wherever white flour is used, cassava flour can be substituted.  It also balances blood sugar level.  

Vanilla Cassava Crepes with Strawberry Chia Jam

I am always in awe of the amazing plants and natural foods that we have access to.  I always say, knowledge is power.  Enjoy these crepes and I challenge you to discover and learn about new grains this upcoming 2021.  I am sure you will have some new favorites that you will want to implement into your diet regularly.  What I also love about this recipe is that with slight substitutions, this recipe can also be vegan if desired.  All of these ingredients are available at Kitchen Kneads.  Enjoy and Happy New Year!!

Strawberry Chia Jam:

2 pounds of strawberries, washed, stemmed, and quartered

1/4 cup of maple syrup

2 tsp lemon juice

1/4 cup chia seeds

In a medium saucepan combine strawberries, maple syrup, and lemon juice.  Cook on medium low for 5-7 minutes and mashing strawberries as they begin to cook.  When strawberries are softened and mashed, turn off heat.  Add chia seed and continue to stir for 1 minute.  Place in refrigerator for 30 minutes.  Jam will thicken as it cools.

 

Vanilla Cassava Crepes: Makes 12 crepes

1 cup cassava flour

2 eggs (or vegan alternative)

1 cup milk of choice

1 cup water

2 T. coconut oil, melted

½ teaspoon vanilla bean powder or ½ teaspoon clear vanilla

Pinch of salt

To make crepes, place all crepe ingredients in a large mixing bowl.  Use a hand mixer to mix for 1 minute.  The consistency should be very thin batter. Cover and place in refrigerator for 30 minutes to rest.

Heat a crepe pan over medium heat.  Once hot, lift the pan up, scoop ¼ cup of batter into the center of the pan and quickly swirl the pan to coat the bottom.  Place the pan back on the heat and cook for 1-2 minutes.  Once the top of the crepe looks dry, flip it over and cook an additional 30-45 seconds.

Place the crepe on a paper towel and repeat the process until all crepes are made.

 

To Assemble the crepes:

Place a crepe on a plate.  Spoon a thin layer of strawberry chia jam (2T.) onto a crepe.  Fold it in half, then half again.  Top with whipped topping of choice, either dairy or coconut and top with jam and chopped and toasted nuts of choice.  I also added a dollop of Greek yogurt for extra protein.

These crepes can be individualized by your tastes and preferences.  Be Creative and Enjoy!!

Yes, there are gluten-free waffles out there, Matilda! What we love about these waffles is that they have light and crispy on the edges, with the amazing fluffy on the inside. A characteristic chew that your old-timey (yes that’s a word – don’t @ me) self, and others, will sure to love.

 

This recipe makes about 4-6 round waffles.

  • 1 ½ cups (128 grams) oat flour*, certified gluten-free if necessary
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • Pinch of cinnamon, optional
  • ¾ cup room temperature milk of choice (light coconut milk, nut milk, cow’s milk)
  • ¼ cup + 1 tablespoon melted coconut oil or 5 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 tablespoons maple syrup
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

  Tip: Let the waffle batter sit for 5-15 minutes so the flours can hydrate and the baking powder/soda can activate. This helps the waffles get crispy!
