Almond Croissant Baked Oats

½ apple

4 dried apricots(or substitute with 1-2 Medjool dates)

¾ cup cottage cheese

2 eggs

¾ cup soy milk(do not use unsweetened; can substitute with regular milk or sweetened plant-based milk)

3 tablespoons agave syrup

9 drop bitter almond extract

1 ½ cups rolled oats

1 ½ teaspoons baking powder

3 tablespoons brown almond butter

1 tbsp soy milk

2 tablespoons almonds(sliced)

Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F) using conventional oven settings (top and bottom heat). Grease a baking dish (approximately 20 x 20 cm / 8 x 8 inches) with a little oil or butter. Quarter half an apple and slice it thinly; cut the apricots into thin strips.

Place cottage cheese, eggs, milk, agave syrup, and bitter almond extract in a mixing bowl and blend until smooth using an immersion blender.

Stir the oat flakes, baking powder, apple pieces and apricots into the cottage cheese mixture, pour it into the prepared casserole dish and smooth it out.

In the mixing bowl just used, mix the almond butter, the remaining agave syrup, milk and bitter almond flavoring together until smooth, then spread evenly over the surface of the dough and top with the almond flakes.

Bake the oatmeal at 180°C (350°F) using conventional oven settings (top and bottom heat) for 30 to 35 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown. Let the baked oatmeal cool completely and then refrigerate. Enjoy it cold or warmed up in the morning.

Tips & Tricks (5)

Blend Cottage Cheese Smoothly 🥣
Use a high-powered blender to completely puree the cottage cheese with eggs and soy milk until silky smooth, eliminating lumps for a uniform cake-like texture throughout the baked oats.
Toast Almonds for Enhanced Flavor 🔆
Lightly toast your sliced or chopped almonds for 3-4 minutes before adding to the almond butter topping to deepen their natural sweetness and create a more authentic frangipane flavor profile.
Dice Apricots Fine for Even Distribution 🔪
Cut dried apricots into small pieces before folding into the batter to ensure they distribute evenly and absorb moisture during baking, preventing clumpy pockets of texture.
Chill Before Serving for Best Structure 🧊
Allow the baked oats to cool completely to room temperature before refrigerating; this sets the cottage cheese base properly and makes it easier to cut into portions without crumbling.
Balance Bitter Almond Extract Carefully ⚖️
Start with just ¼ teaspoon of bitter almond extract in the topping and taste as you go, as this potent ingredient can easily overpower the dish—more can always be added, but it cannot be removed.
