Ginger Apple Plum Oat Crumble ~ Sumptuous Spoonfuls #fruity #baked #oatmeal #recipe

After teaching two breakfast cooking classes where we made overnight oat parfaits, I was a little burned out on overnight oats. But I had some chopped plums and freshly grated ginger left from the class and decided I needed to bake them into something warm and cozy with some lovely spices, maple syrup and pecans. A BAKED oatmeal, with a layer of fruity goodness on the bottom.

I brought it to work and found a couple taste testers to sample my creation. One of them reported that it is A-MAZ-ING. Like a crisp, but with more oatmeal on the top. The other one told me I should send it to Yankee candle company so they could make a scented candle like this. She said she kept smelling the bowl because it smelled SO good. It did smell wonderful.

I like to dress it up like a dessert by adding a little light whipped cream or vanilla ice cream on top. For a healthier breakfast topping, you could top it with Greek yogurt.

Notes

Oats are naturally gluten free, but are often cross contaminated with gluten, so if you have someone gluten intolerant to feed, use gluten free oats.
