PB & J Doughnut Baked Oatmeal

 

 

I made this oatmeal especially for Red nose/ Comic Relief. A annual event each year to raise money for different charities supporting an all manner of causes both in the UK and in third world countries. The whole country bakes, dresses up and does silly things to raise money and in the evening the BBC hold a live TV broadcast for hours in which celebrities do comedy sketches and participate in special versions of normal TV shows, as well as showing what people have done around the country and videos of what the money from last year has done and what this year's money will do. It's usually a great night. Throughout they give updates on donations.

 

So I gave my breakfast a 'Red nose', yes we sell/buy special red noses with faces on them and everything as part of the money raising.

 

 

Of course you don't have to give your doughnut a face, just sprinkle with toasted peanuts or swirl with more jam.



PB & J Doughnut Baked Oatmeal

Ingredients:

1/2 Cup/45g Rolled Oats
Pinch of Salt
1/4 Tsp Baking Powder
1 1/2 TBSP Whole/Flaked Almonds, blitzed to a flour (Or 1 TBSP Ground Almonds)
1 TBSP Peanuts, roughly chopped
2 Servings of PB2 or 2 TBSP Peanut Butter
1/4 Cup/60ml Milk of Choice
Optional: Sweetener of Choice, to taste

Filling:
1 TBSP Jam of Choice, I used Strawberry
2 Servings of PB2 or 2 TBSP Peanut Butter
1/2 TBSP Peanuts, roughly chopped (Raw or Toasted)

Method:

1. Preheat your oven to 180C/350F/Gas Mark 4. Grease a dish or ramekin.
2. Mix up the PB2, if using. Combine the dry ingredients in a bowl, including the ground almonds. Mix in the PB2 and peanuts. Add the milk bit by bit till the oats are wet but not sloppy. Add sweetener to taste if needed. Bake for 17-20 minutes or till golden and firm. Let cool for a minute, invert onto a plate. Cut in half and chose which side will be your top. I used mine upside down. Cut a circle out of the top half. Dollop the jam into the center of the bottom half and make up the PB2 and spread 1/2 around the jam, sprinkle with some peanuts. Place the top on top and spread the rest of the PB2 on top. Enjoy!
