Description

A delicious breakfast treat composed of fruit on the bottom, oatmeal in the middle, and crunchy nuts on top.

Ingredients

  • ¾ cups Butter, Divided
  • 1-½ cup Thinly Sliced Fruit
  • 4 Tablespoons Demerara Sugar Or Sucanat, Divided
  • ½ cups Whole Milk
  • ⅔ cups Pure Maple Syrup
  • 2 whole Large Eggs
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
  • 2 cups Old Fashioned Rolled Oats
  • 2-½ teaspoons Baking Powder
  • ¼ teaspoons Baking Soda
  • ½ teaspoons Salt
  • ⅓ cups Sliced Almonds

Preparation

*Peaches, pears and apples are good choices. If using apples, make sure to slice them thinly or they will be crunchy.

1. Preheat oven to 350° F. Melt butter; pour 1/4 cup into the bottom of a 9-inch square baking dish. Arrange sliced fruit on top of the butter and sprinkle with 2 tablespoons demerara. Set aside.
2. In a medium bowl, mix together milk, maple syrup, eggs, remaining 1/2 cup butter and vanilla.
3. In a large bowl, whisk together oats, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Stir the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix well. Pour over the fruit and smooth the top. Sprinkle with almonds and remaining 2 tablespoons demerara.
4. Bake at 350°F for 40 to 50 minutes, or until browned on top and fruit is bubbly. Allow to cool slightly. Serve with milk, cream or vanilla sauce.

Yum! Used brown sugar and made it dairy free by using soy milk and margarine. I used apples and raisins for my fruit and it turned out delicious! Instead of almonds, I used walnuts and I also sprinked cinnamon on the top.

This was fantastic! I used peaches and since my Safeway out on the California coast didn’t have Demerera Sugar I used brown sugar over the fruit and cinnamon-sugar on top. This just knocked breakfast out of the park!!!

I just made this and it was great. I used mangoes instead as the fruit and used agave nectar in place of the maple syrup. Was really good and didn’t have an overly sweet taste. Don’t have any but thinking this combination would go great with some coconut milk or macadamian nuts along the top.

We’re going to try this tomorrow with some fresh blackberries that we just spent the afternoon picking. Can’t wait!

Delicious! I made it as written and it was wonderful, almost dessert like. Just had it with milk. Next time I will probably reduce the amount of butter as others have and probably leave out some of the sugar. Made it with bartlett pears. Might try it with canned peaches next time.

Edible, but no one seemed to find it to be very interesting.

This was awesome. I used apples on the bottom and it turned out amazing. It kept pretty well in the fridge afterwards as well(easily reheated in the microwave).

This was SO delicious! I only had half & half on hand (no milk) but the end result still turned out pretty perfect. Also, I subbed honey for the maple syrup (just not a maple fan). Will definitely be putting this in heavy rotation!
