Baked Oats with Fruit
Old dogs can learn new tricks. This recipe was shared with me by my daughter. I love how utterly flexible this recipe is. You can sub in non-dairy products with ease, use frozen fruit and even add nuts if that takes your fancy.
I have successfully made a half-size serve of this and baked it in 35 minutes. Though also know that it does keep in the fridge for up to 5 days if a full batch works better for your routine.
ingredients
- 420ml milk
- 80ml honey
- 2 eggs
- 3 tbsp coconut oil, melted and slightly cooled (can sub in butter)
- 2 cups rolled oats
- 1/4 cup dessicated coconut
- 3 tsp mixed spice or vanilla essence depending on what works with your chosen fruit
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 2 bananas, mashed or other fruit equivalent 1 cup volume (frozen berries etc)
Heat the oven to 180 degrees Celsius.
Stir together the milk, honey, eggs, coconut oil. Sift in the spices and baking powder then fold in the oats and coconut. Spoon in your chosen fruit and stir through.
Scrape this wet lumpy mix into an ovenproof dish and bake at 180 degrees Celsius for 40-45 minutes.
