Ingredients
Scale
-
- 1 cup oatmeal (rolled or quick oats)
- 1 glass of milk (about 250ml, can use dairy or plant-based milk)
- 1 apple, chopped
- 1 banana, sliced
- 3 eggs
- 60g walnuts, chopped (or your preferred nuts)
Optional Add-ins:
-
- 1 tsp cinnamon or nutmeg for flavor
- A handful of raisins or dried cranberries for natural sweetness
- A splash of vanilla extract
Instructions
- Preheat the Oven: Set your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a baking dish or line it with parchment paper.
- Combine Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs and milk. Add the oatmeal, apple, banana, walnuts, and any optional spices or extracts. Stir until everything is well combined.
- Let it Rest: Allow the mixture to sit for about 5 minutes so the oats can absorb some liquid.
- Bake: Pour the mixture into your prepared baking dish and spread it evenly. Bake for 25–30 minutes, or until the top is golden and the bake is set.
- Cool and Serve: Let it cool slightly before slicing. Serve warm or at room temperature.
Notes
- This bake can be enjoyed warm, or you can prepare it ahead and have it as part of your meal prep for the week.
- You can substitute the walnuts with other nuts like almonds or cashews, or add a scoop of protein powder for extra protein.
- For a vegan version, use plant-based milk and egg substitutes like flax eggs or chia eggs.
