breakfast bake recipe

This easy Quinoa Breakfast Bake is layers of fresh fruit, quinoa, and oats smothered in a cinnamon and syrup egg mixture baked to perfection! A wholesome, healthy, and scrumptious way to start the day!

Quinoa Breakfast Bake

quinoa (uncooked)

steel cut oats (uncooked)

coconut flakes (unsweetened)

medium very ripe bananas (sliced)

blueberries (fresh

raspberries (fresh

milk (I used almond)

eggs

tsp pure vanilla extract

cinnamon

salt

Cooking spray (I use Misto)

Greek yogurt (for topping (optional))

Rinse quinoa and oats with cold running water, drain and set aside.

Preheat small skillet on low-medium heat, add coconut and toast until golden brown, stirring frequently. Set aside.

In medium bowl, whisk milk, eggs, maple syrup, vanilla extract, cinnamon and salt. Set aside.

Preheat oven to 375 degrees F and spray 8 x 8 square baking dish with cooking spray.

Lay half of bananas, blueberries and raspberries in a single layer on a bottom. Using a spoon or spatula, spread rinsed quinoa and steel cut oats on top. Top with remaining banana and berries.

Slowly pour liquid mixture in the corner of the baking dish without disturbing the set up. If you pour the liquid abruptly in the middle of the dish, all fruit might float to the top. We are looking for evenly distributed fruits and sweetness in every slice.

Sprinkle with toasted coconut flakes and bake for 60 minutes uncovered.

Remove from the oven and let cool for 45 - 60 minutes.

Cut into 9 slices and serve hot, warm or cold with a dollop of Greek yogurt if desired. You can also dig in with a spoon right away. The bake won&#039;t be completely set but still delicious.

Overnight French toast casserole is a delicious way to prepare breakfast the night before. You&#x27;ll love this make ahead baked version of French toast, with no messy skillet or griddle to clean.
