Calories: 252kcal
Ingredients
- 2 Eggs
- 250 ml Skimmed milk
- 80 ml Maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 180 g Apple sauce
- 230 g Oats (use certified gluten free oats to ensure this recipe is gluten free)
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground ginger
- 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder
- 50 g Pecans chopped
- 2 Apples diced
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 190°C/170°C(fan)/375°F/Gas 5. Grease a large baking dish.
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk 2 Eggs. Add 250 ml Skimmed milk, 80 ml Maple syrup, 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract and 180 g Apple sauce. Mix again.
- Add 230 g Oats, 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon, 0.5 teaspoon Ground ginger and 1 teaspoon Baking powder. Mix well to combine everything.
- Add chunks of 2 Apples (reserving a few) and 50 g Pecans (chopped). Mix these in.
- Transfer the oat mixture to the greased baking dish. Spread it out and add the remaining apple chunks to the top.
- Bake for 40-45 minutes.
Notes
- For maximum sweetness, use really ripe apples.
- Let the batter rest for a couple of minutes before pouring it into the pan. This will allow it to thicken up, and stop the apples sinking to the bottom when folded in.
- For a "protein swirl", blend some cottage cheese and swirl it into the top of the oats before baking.
- You can use frozen apples too and you don't need to defrost them first.
- Allow it to cool before slicing it all up for storage.
