This blueberry and coconut oat bake is so delicious! It’s also really easy to make, kid friendly (if you wanted to bake with your children and/or grandchildren) and suitable for vegans.
It’s low in sugar, but the banana and blueberry combo give it just the right amount of sweetness.
You can enjoy this bake warm or cool. I recommend serving with some dairy free coconut yoghurt and a few slices of extra fruit.
Serves 4.
