    This Baked Quinoa and Oatmeal is a healthy breakfast that is deliciously sweet!  Loved by kids and adults alike, this is one you will make time and again.

    baked-quinoa-oatmealThere is no doubt that quinoa is a great way to start the day, but up until now I’ve never been successful at getting my children on the bandwagon. The baby (Ok, he’s five but who’s counting?) always wants eggs and toast and my oldest (aka the commander) is a lot like me in that he would generally prefer something other than breakfast food in the morning.

    Still, I couldn’t help but want to try out the Baked Oatmeal recipe from Super Natural Every Day. I knew it had all makings for the perfect quinoa breakfast that my kids would love.

    Its the perfect dish for a brunch or just a lazy weekend morning.

    I actually started putting it together the night before because I would rather use my time in the morning drinking coffee and snuggling with the boys before they jump into action than working in the kitchen.

    • 1 cup rolled oats
    • 1 cup quinoa soaked and rinsed
    • ½ cup toasted walnuts
    • ⅓ cup maple syrup
    • 1 teaspoon baking powder
    • 1 ½ teaspoon cinnamon
    • ½ teaspoon sea salt

    • 2 bananas cut into pieces
    • 1 ½ cups mixed berries
    US Customary - Metric

    Instructions

    • Preheat oven to 375 and spray olive oil in your pan to prevent sticking.
    • Mix together oats, quinoa, half of walnuts, sugar (if using otherwise add maple syrup with wet ingredients), baking powder, cinnamon and salt. (Note: this can be done ahead of time.)
    • In a separate bowl lightly beat egg and add in milk, vanilla, maple syrup (if using) and half of the slightly cooled butter.
    • Place banana slices on the bottom of the prepared pan. Top with ⅔ of the berries and cover with oat mixture. Pour wet ingredients over and make sure the dry ingredients are covered. Top with remaining berries and walnuts.
    • Bake for 40 minutes. Drizzle with remaining melted butter and additional maple syrup or sugar if desired.

        This is a really old recipe (like 2011!), but I think it was an 11 x 7.
