    How to Prepare Sweet-Berry Breakfast Bake [Vegan]

    For the Berry Bake:

    1. Preheat oven to 350° F.
    2. In a small bowl, make your flax egg by stirring the water and flaxseed with a fork, then set aside about 8-10 minutes to let it thicken.
    3. Once the flax egg thickens, add all ingredients (except the berries) to an 8x8 or 9x9 baking pan and stir well to evenly combine. I use a fork to “beat” the mixture to ensure all clumpy bits are well blended.
    4. Now stir in the berries, making sure they’re visibly spread out evenly so you get a little sweetness in every bite!
    5. Bake for 60 minutes, long enough for the quinoa to cook through. (Now, catch up on anything you like while breakfast cooks itself!)

    For the Coconut Whipped Cream:

    1. Scoop cream into a small bowl and whisk until creamy, then add in remaining whipped cream ingredients and gently whisk until combined. Refrigerate until ready to use.
    2. Serve warm with whipped cream, more fresh berries, and nuts—or enjoy as is!

    Notes

    • Refrigerate your coconut cream overnight. This helps to allow the whipped cream to be creamier and less runny in consistency.
