Ingredients
1 ½cupsrolled oatsnot instant
½cuppecanscoarsely chopped
1 ½cupschopped apple
1 ½cupmilk
1egg
2tablespoonshoney
1teaspoonapple pie spice*See note
¼teaspoonsalt
Instructions
Preheat oven to 350ºF.
Prepare an 8 X 8-inch baking dish by spraying it with cooking spray.
Toast pecans by placing them on a baking sheet and roasting them for about 5 minutes or less. Be sure to check them at the 2 1/2 minute mark and every 30 seconds after that. They can go from being nicely toasted to burnt in the blink of an eye.
In a medium bowl, beat the egg. Add milk, honey, apple pie spice, and salt. Mix well. *See note.
In a small bowl, combine oats, toasted pecans, and apple pieces.
Place oatmeal mixture into prepared baking dish.
Pour milk mixture gently and evenly over the oats.
Bake for 25-30 minutes until bubbly and lightly browned.
Notes
If you don't have apple pie spice on hand, you can make your own with my recipe, or substitute 1 teaspoon of ground cinnamon.
Also, when mixing the liquids together, I'll put the milk into a 2-cup liquid measuring cup then add the egg, honey and spice and mix everything together in it. That way, I'm not making more work for myself by dirtying an additional bowl, and I can easily pour it into the pan instead of having to use a ladle.
