Recipe Summary Healthy Baked Steel Cut Oatmeal

Breakfasts have always been a challenge for me, so I created this recipe as a quick and portable way to have healthy breakfasts all week. I hope you enjoy it as much as I do. Feel free to experiment with different dried fruits and flavorings to your taste. I imagine that adding quinoa, hemp protein, flax seed or other nutritional supplements would taste great.

Ingredients | Quick Cooking Steel Cut Oats Cookies

4 cups 1% milk

2 cups steel-cut oats

2 teaspoons vanilla extract

2 ripe bananas, mashed

2 eggs, beaten

½ cup unsweetened applesauce

2 teaspoons baking powder

2 teaspoons ground cinnamon

1 teaspoon salt

½ cup raisins, or more to taste

Directions

Bring milk to a boil in a saucepan; immediately reduce heat to medium-low. Stir oats and vanilla into the milk. Stirring occasionally, cook at a simmer until the oats are soft, about 20 minutes. Set aside to cool slightly.

Mix bananas, eggs, and applesauce in a large bowl. Mix baking powder, cinnamon, and salt in a small bowl; stir into the banana mixture. Add oats mixture to the bowl; stir. Fold raisins through the oat mixture; pour into a 9x13-inch baking dish. Cover dish with plastic wrap; refrigerate 8 hours to overnight.

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

Remove plastic wrap from baking dish and bake in preheated oven until golden brown, 45 to 60 minutes.

I frequently add 1 sliced banana after pouring half the mixture in the baking dish and then covering with the remaining mixture.
