Ingredients

  • 2 cups quick oats
  • 2 cups milk or plant-based/dairy-free 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.
 

Dietary considerations:

  • Gluten free: make sure you use certified gluten-free oats
  • Dairy free: use dairy-free or plant-based milk and do not use Greek yogurt as a topping
