Ingredients
Scale
- 3 – 5 cups diced apples & pears, skin may be left on (I peeled mine)
- 2 cups old-fashioned oats
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/3 cup maple syrup or honey
- 2 cups milk (any kind will do)
- 1 large egg
- 1 tablespoon pure vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon freshly grated ginger root
- 2 tablespoons melted butter or coconut oil
- 2 Tablespoons raw (turbinado) sugar
- 1/4 cup chopped walnuts or pecans
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375 F. Spray a 13x9x2 inch pan with cooking spray (or butter it).
- Prep the apples and pears and spread half the fruit in the bottom of the pan.
- In a medium mixing bowl, mix the oats, baking powder, spices, and salt. Sprinkle the oat mixture over the fruit.
- Now take the bowl and whisk together the maple syrup or honey, milk, egg, vanilla and ginger until everything is well mixed. While whisking, pour the butter in a thin stream into the mixture (this will keep it from congealing).
- Sprinkle the top with raw sugar and nuts and bake for about 40 minutes or until the oatmeal is set.
- Eat warm & fresh from the oven, or cover and refrigerate for later.
Notes
I used 4 small apples and 4 pears which I think was about 5 cups of fruit.
