Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 3 eggs
- 1 cup oatmeal (rolled or quick oats)
- 1 banana, sliced
- 1 apple, chopped
Dairy and Liquid:
- 1 glass milk (250 milliliters / 8.45 fluid ounces)
Nuts:
- 60 grams (2.12 ounces) walnuts, chopped
Instructions
- Prepare the baking environment by preheating the oven to 350F (175C) and preparing a baking dish with non-stick spray or parchment paper.
- Create a base mixture by whisking eggs and milk together in a spacious mixing bowl until smooth and well-integrated.
- Incorporate oatmeal, diced apple, sliced banana, and chopped walnuts into the liquid foundation, stirring thoroughly to ensure even distribution of ingredients.
- Allow the mixture to rest for 5 minutes, enabling the oats to absorb moisture and soften slightly.
- Transfer the entire mixture into the prepared baking dish, using a spatula to spread it evenly across the surface.
- Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, monitoring until the top turns a golden-brown color and the center appears set and firm.
- Remove from oven and let the breakfast bake cool for several minutes to stabilize its structure.
- Slice into individual portions and serve either warm or at room temperature for a nutritious morning meal.
Notes
- Boost nutrition by choosing steel-cut or rolled oats for maximum fiber and slower digestion.
- Customize flavor profiles with alternative fruits like berries, peaches, or pears for seasonal variety.
- Enhance protein content by adding a scoop of plant-based protein powder or Greek yogurt to the mixture for extra richness.
- Make it vegan-friendly by substituting eggs with mashed banana, chia seeds, or commercial egg replacer to maintain binding consistency.
