Ingredients

  • 2 cups quick oats
  • 2 cups milk
  • 2 eggs
  • 2 cups pear diced or grated*
  • 2 tbsp flax seeds ground
  • 1/3 cup brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup sliced almonds
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • Pinch of salt

Toppings (optional)

  • Sliced almonds
  • Sliced pear
  • Banana
  • Maple syrup
  • Greek yogurt
  • Nut butter

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350°F and grease an 8x8 Pyrex baking dish.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together the milk and eggs. To this, add the vanilla extract and pear. 
  • In a medium sized bowl, combine all dry ingredients and stir.
  • Add the dry ingredients to the wet and stir until incorporated. Pour this oatmeal mixture into the greased Pyrex dish and bake for 35-40 minutes, or until golden brown and an inserted toothpick comes out clean.
  • Allow the baked oatmeal to cool for 5 minutes before serving with your desired toppings. Enjoy!

Notes

*If you prefer to use grated pear, ensure the pear is firm enough to do so. If it has ripened too much it will be too soft to properly grate.
