Introducing a gluten free Oatmeal Breakfast Bake made with almond milk & almond flour!
I’ve been getting more requests for gluten free friendly recipes lately, so I figured a gluten free breakfast bread/casserole would be something you all would enjoy. If you want to keep this recipe gluten free, make sure to get GF certified oats – they’re naturally gluten free but often contaminated in processing.
For this recipe, I decided to try out this fun new almond coconut milk from Almond Breeze – as the name indicates, it’s a mix of almond milk and coconut milk. Cool, huh? I bet it would be good in coffee, too…
The breakfast bake came out delicious – and the recipe is super quick and easy. Enjoy it!

I tried a piece immediately, obviously, and the bread is chewy and moist with great flavor. I’m happy to have this on hand to enjoy the rest of the week! Matt and I both had some for breakfast this morning – his with coffee, mine with Greek yogurt!
What’s your go-to breakfast recipe as of late? I’m also still obsessed with my High Protein & Flour Free Breakfast Pancake!
p.s. Thank you so much for all the kind words on yesterday’s announcement about my new nutrition counseling private practice! Your support means a lot to me and I’m thrilled to finally be done with school and internships and hitting the ground running. I’ll be sure to keep you guys updated on how things are going!
