Ingredients

  • 1 and 3/4 cups (420ml) milk (dairy or nondairy)
  • 2 large eggs*
  • 1/2 cup (120ml) pure maple syrup*
  • 1/4 cup (4 Tbsp; 56g) unsalted butter, melted and slightly cooled*
  • 1/4 cup (60g) unsweetened applesauce or mashed banana
  • 3 cups (255g) old-fashioned whole rolled oats*
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 and 1/2 cups (225g) fresh or frozen mixed berries, (do not thaw & see note)
  • optional for topping: 1/2 cup chopped walnuts or pecans

Directions

  1. 1

    Adjust the oven rack to the lower third position and preheat the oven to 350°F (177°C). Spray a 9×9 inch or 11×7 inch baking pan with nonstick spray. Any similar size or shape pan works, though 8×8 inch would be too small. See recipe note for 9×13 inch pan.

  2. 2

    Whisk all of the ingredients together in 1 large bowl. Pour into prepared baking pan. Top with nuts, if desired. (Or stir into the oatmeal.) Bake for 35 minutes or until the center appears *almost* set, which gives us a soft oatmeal as pictured above. For drier and more solid baked oatmeal, bake until center has set.

  3. 3

    Cool for 5 minutes before serving. Spoon or slice and serve with yogurt, if desired. Cover leftovers tightly and refrigerate for up to 1 week.
