Baked Cranberry Oatmeal
 
 
Serve with a splash of milk, either coconut or dairy. *To make this oatmeal completely gluten-free, substitute white or brown rice flour for the all-purpose in the crumble, and to make it dairy-free, substitute coconut oil for the butter. If you want to substitute regular milk for the almond milk, use 1½ cups whole milk and 1½ cups of water.
