Spiced Pear Baked Oatmeal
This hearty Spiced Pear Baked Oatmeal is the perfect vegetarian fall breakfast! It's also freezer friendly - just bake it, freeze it, and reheat it.
Ingredients
- 2 ¼ cups rolled oats old-fashioned
- 1 ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
- ¼ teaspoon ground ginger
- ⅛ teaspoon cloves ground
- dash ground nutmeg
- ½ teaspoon baking powder
- 1 egg
- 1 ¾ cup milk I use almond milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- ⅓ cup maple syrup
- 1 cup pear about 1 pear, fresh, diced
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375ºF.
- Combine the oats, spices, and baking powder in a medium bowl.
- Beat the egg in a second bowl. Stir in the milk, vanilla, and syrup, then pour the wet mixture into the oat mixture. Fold in the pears.
- Spray a square baking dish with oil or cooking spray. Pour oatmeal into the baking dish and bake for 25-35 minutes, or until set and beginning to brown. Serve immediately or, if freezing, allow the oatmeal to cool, then cut it into 6 to 8 pieces (the pieces hold together better after cooling!).
Notes
- To reheat from frozen, heat the oatmeal in the microwave for 30 seconds at a time until heated through or bake in the oven at 350ºF for about 15 minutes.
