Simple Homemade Oatmeal & Fruit Bake
This baked oatmeal is naturally sweet from fruit and rich in fiber, making it a wholesome option for breakfast or a light dessert.

 Ingredients

• 1 cup oats (quick oats or rolled oats)

• 250 ml milk

• 1 egg

• 1 apple

• 1 ripe banana

• 1 teaspoon baking powder

• 1 teaspoon vanilla sugar OR vanilla extract

• 50 g nuts (walnuts or pecans, chopped)

Optional Add-ins:

• 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

• A pinch of salt

  

  Dark Chocolate Pistachio Date Bites

• Raisins or chopped dates

• A little honey or maple syrup (if you want extra sweetness)

 Instructions

1. Prepare the Fruit

Peel the banana and place it in a bowl. Mash it well with a fork until smooth.

Wash the apple and grate it (you may keep the peel for extra fiber). Add the grated apple to the mashed banana and mix well.

2. Mix the Wet Ingredients

Add to the fruit mixture:

• Egg

• Milk

• Vanilla sugar (or vanilla extract)

Whisk everything together until well combined.

3. Add the Dry Ingredients

Stir in:

• Oats

  

  Oatmeal Cocoa Banana Breakfast Cookies

• Baking powder

Mix until evenly combined.

Let the mixture rest for 5 minutes so the oats absorb the liquid. This helps create a soft and moist texture.

4. Prepare for Baking

Lightly grease a small baking dish with oil or butter.

Pour the oatmeal mixture into the dish and spread it evenly.

Sprinkle chopped nuts over the top for a crunchy finish.

5. Bake

Preheat the oven to 180°C.

Bake for 30–35 minutes or until:

• The center is firm
