Pear Baked Oatmeal
Description
The Pear Baked Oatmeal recipe blends old-fashioned rolled oats with cinnamon, ground ginger, nutmeg, baking powder, sea salt, non-dairy milk (such as vanilla almond), applesauce, maple syrup, ground flaxseed, melted coconut oil, vanilla extract, diced pears, and walnuts. The flaxseed adds a binder that helps hold the mixture, and spices provide warmth and aroma. Walnuts contribute texture and a nutty flavor.
After combining the ingredients, the oatmeal mixture is poured into a greased dish and topped with sliced pears before baking at 375°F until the center sets and a toothpick tests clean. The result is a dense but tender baked oatmeal with juicy pear pieces and crunchy nut bits dispersed throughout.
Serving suggestions include drizzling almond butter, additional almond milk, or maple syrup atop the warm oatmeal for extra flavor and moisture. This baked oatmeal can function as a wholesome breakfast or brunch dish that can be prepared ahead and reheated.
The notes provide alternatives such as using an egg instead of flaxseed if not vegan, or swapping the coconut oil for other oils, melted butter or ghee, and suggest walnuts can be replaced or omitted based on preference.
