Pear & Cranberry Baked Oats
Ingredients
2 bananas
1 3/4 cup milk (any milk product can be used)
2 large eggs
3 cups old-fashioned rolled oats
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon table salt
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1-2 tablespoons maple syrup (optional)
2-3 pears, diced (reserving some slices for topping)
Milk, yogurt, nuts, or nut butter for serving
Directions
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.
Everything can be prepared in the baking pan. Mash the banana, add the milk, eggs, and maple syrup (if using), and whisk to combine. Add the oats, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon. Mix until combined and fold in the pear chunks. Top with the pear slices.
Bake for 30-35 minutes or until the center appears almost set. Cool for 5 minutes before serving with any desired toppings.
