Cinnamon Swirl Apple Baked Oats

Ingredients

2 bananas

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

2 large eggs

2 ½ cups old-fashioned rolled oats

1 teaspoon baking powder

1/2 teaspoon table salt

1 baking apple, diced

2 tablespoons peanut butter

1-2 tablespoons maple syrup

1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Directions


  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C), with the rack set in the middle. Using a paper towel grease your baking pan (I used a 9x12 inch) with coconut or canola oil.

  2. Blend 1 cup of oats to make oat flour with a blender or food processor.

  3. Everything can be prepared in the baking pan. Mash the banana, add the milk and eggs, and whisk to combine. Add the oats, oat flour, baking powder, and salt and mix till combined. Fold in the apples.  

  4. In a small bowl, mix the peanut butter, maple syrup and cinnamon, if it’s too sticky microwave for 5-10 seconds. Add 3-5 dollops to the baking pan and use a knife to cut through and swirl the cinnamon. 

  5. Bake for 30-35 minutes or until the center appears almost set. Cool for 5 minutes before serving with any desired toppings.
