Apple Baked Oatmeal

Ingredients

2 bananas

1 3/4 cup milk (any milk product can be used)

2 large eggs

2 tablespoons maple syrup

1/4 cup coconut oil, melted

3 cups old-fashioned rolled oats 

1 teaspoon baking powder

1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

1/4 teaspoon nutmeg

1/4 teaspoon allspice

1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt

1-2 apples, about 1 1/2 cups diced, and a few thin slices reserved for topping

Optional Toppings:

Splash of milk

Greek yogurt

Nuts (almonds, walnuts, pecans are all delicious)

Maple syrup

Directions


  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F, with the rack set in the middle position. Using a paper towel grease your baking pan (I used a 9x12 inch) with coconut oil.

  2. Everything comes together in one bowl. Mash the bananas, then add the milk, eggs, maple syrup, and coconut oil and stir. Add the remaining dry ingredients and mix until fully combined. Fold in the diced apples.

  3. Pour the mixture into the prepared baking pan. Top with additional apple slices and/or nuts if using.

  4. Bake for 30-35 minutes or until the center appears almost set. Cool for 5 minutes before serving with any desired toppings. It is delicious with a drizzle of milk or a scoop of yogurt, as well as topping it with any nuts.
