Baked Oatmeal with Pear


I find it feels so right to eat oatmeal on these cold, windy, late-winter mornings. The kids and I eat it a lot just boiled up with some maple syrup and milk on top.

Between granola making and oatmeal porridge we go through a lot of rolled oats. I have a feeling we're going to have an even harder time keeping oats in the house.

I tried a new recipe for baked oats today and since I had some pears left over from a cake I had made I threw those in too.

Jibs and I sat and ate it right out of the baking dish with a fork. It would be great as a breakfast but I can even see eating it as a dessert with some whipped cream on top.

Baked Oatmeal with Pear

2 1/2 C Rolled Oats
1/2 C steel-cut oats
1/4C Brown sugar
2 tsp baking poweder
1/4 tsp salt
1/2 tsp cinnamon
2 C milk
1/4 C sunflower or veg oil
2/3 C apple sauce
1 1/2 C chopped pear (I used a tin of pear halves chopped)

Mix dry ingredients together.
Mix wet ingredients, except pear, in a 4 C measuring glass.
Stir wet into dry.
Pour into a glass baking dish.
Bake at 400 for 20 mins.
Stir in pears and bake another 20 mins.
