The ‘crisp’ topping in this recipe contains flaxseed for added healthy fats and omega 3, along with chopped pecans to add some delicious crunch to the mix.
In total, this recipe should take less than 10 minutes to prep and doesn’t need any further attention after it goes in the oven so it isn’t too prep heavy, even for a busy morning. Best served warm but can be stored in the fridge and eaten cool if you want to meal prep this the night before too.

How to store and does it keep?

Substitutions
You can substitute the pecans for any other nut of your choice if you’re not a fan. Walnuts or almonds would both work well in a dish like this. If you have a nut allergy or want to skip the nuts completely, you could add some pumpkin seeds if you wish to keep the crunch/ variation in texture, or simply add the equivalent weight in extra oats if you don’t want to keep the dish simple.
