Coconut & Blueberry Oat Bread with Date Caramel
 
ingredients:
300g of rolled oats
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon sea salt
100g of coconut milk from a tin
100g of greek yoghurt or your preferred vegan yoghurt, if vegan obviously 
150g of maple syrup
150g of blueberries
100g of mixed seeds 
50g of desiccated coconut
2 teaspoons melted coconut oil
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Date Caramel:
1 cup pitted Medjool dates
1/2 cup maple syrup
1/2 cup full fat coconut milk
1 tsp of vanilla extract
Pinch of sea salt
 
Method:
1.  Grease and line a 9 inch loaf tin or baking tray with parchment paper and preheat the oven to 180C fan 
2.  In a large mixing bowl place all of the ingredients other than the date caramel and mix really well with a spatula until you have a thick batter
3.  Add to the baking tin and bake for 40 minutes in the centre of the oven until a skewer comes out clean and leave to cool completely 
4.  To make the caramel, place all the ingredients in a food processor and whiz until the dates have completely broken down and you have a smooth caramely consistency.  Note: if the dates are a little hard, you can soak in warm water until soft and then drain well
5.  Serve a slice of the bread drizzled with some caramel, yoghurt and more fresh berries. The ideal 11 o’ clock snack or anytime healthy treat.
