Ingredients
  

2 cups rolled oats

1 tablespoon baking powder

1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/2 cup brown sugar (or coconut sugar for a refined sugar-free option)

1 cup unsweetened coconut milk

2 large eggs

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 cup crushed pineapple (thoroughly drained)

1/2 cup shredded unsweetened coconut

1/2 cup chopped walnuts (optional)

1/4 cup dried pineapple or coconut chips (for topping)

Fresh pineapple slices and toasted coconut for garnish (optional)

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Begin by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a 9x9-inch (or a similarly sized) baking dish with coconut oil or a non-stick cooking spray to prevent sticking.

    Combine Dry Ingredients: In a spacious mixing bowl, add the rolled oats, baking powder, ground cinnamon, salt, and brown sugar. Whisk these ingredients together thoroughly to ensure they are well blended.

      Prepare the Wet Mixture: In a separate bowl, whisk together the coconut milk, eggs, and vanilla extract. Continue whisking until the mixture is smooth and uniformly combined.

        Mix Together: Gradually pour the wet mixture into the bowl containing the dry ingredients. Stir gently until everything is well combined. To enhance the flavor, fold in the crushed pineapple, shredded coconut, and chopped walnuts (if using) until they are evenly distributed throughout the mixture.

          Transfer to Baking Dish: Carefully pour the oatmeal mixture into the greased baking dish. Use a spatula or the back of a spoon to smooth out the top, creating an even layer.

            Top for Extra Crunch: For a delightful crunch and added sweetness, sprinkle the dried pineapple or coconut chips evenly over the top of the mixture.

              Bake: Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the top develops a golden brown color and the edges start to pull away slightly from the sides of the dish.

                Cool and Serve: Once baked, remove the dish from the oven and allow it to cool for 5-10 minutes. Slice into squares and serve warm. For a beautiful and vibrant presentation, consider garnishing with fresh pineapple slices and a sprinkle of toasted coconut.
