- 2 tablespoons coconut sugar (low-glycemic index sweetener)
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon (metabolism-boosting spice)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (natural flavor enhancer with no added sugar)
Cooking Methods (Instructions) Focused for Weight Loss
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease an 8-inch baking dish with a small amount of coconut oil or use a non-stick spray.
In a mixing bowl, combine oat flour, coconut sugar, cinnamon, and vanilla extract. Gradually add light coconut milk and stir until the batter is smooth.
Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish. Scatter fresh blueberries evenly over the batter.
Bake for 30-40 minutes or until the edges are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Avoid overbaking to retain the moisture and nutrients.
