Ingredients:
- 2 cups Chantal Organics Organic Quick Rolled Oats
- ¼ cup ROAR Organic Seed Mix Activated
- 2 Tablespoons ROAR Organic Chia Seeds
- ¼ cup Waihi Bush LSA Original
- ½ teaspoon ground Ceres Organics Ground Cinnamon
- Pinch of salt

Method:
- Preheat the oven to 175°C and grease a baking dish or skillet with coconut oil.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, seed mix, chia seeds, LSA, cinnamon, and salt. Mix well to combine.
- Add the coconut oil, honey, almond milk, and vanilla to the bowl. Stir until all the dry ingredients are evenly coated and moistened.
- Add the grated carrot and lemon zest and gently fold in the cherries, being careful not to crush them too much.
- Pour the mixture into the oiled baking dish and spread it evenly with a spatula. Add a few additional cherries on top for an extra burst of flavour and colour.
- Bake in a preheated oven for 30-35 minutes (or until the top is golden brown and the oats are set).
