Ingredients
BASE:
- 2 ¼ cup water
- 1 ½ cup rolled oats
- ¼ tsp sea salt
CUSTARD:
- 2 large eggs
- ⅔ cup milk of your choice
- 1 Tbsp maple syrup or honey
- dash sea salt
- ½ tsp vanilla
- ½ tsp cinnamon
Instructions
BASE:
- Bring the water and salt to a boil in a medium saucepan.
- Stir in the oats.
- Cook, uncovered, until the oats are done and the water has completely evaporated, about 5-7 minutes.
- Pour the cooked oatmeal into an oiled 8 x 8 baking dish.
- Put the dish into the fridge, UNCOVERED, for at least 2 hours until set and firm to the touch. I usually do this step the night before and leave it in the fridge, uncovered, until morning.
CUSTARD:
- When ready to make, preheat oven to 375 degrees.
- Mix the custard ingredients.
- Pour the custard mix into shallow dish, such as a pie plate.
- Cut the chilled oatmeal into nine equal squares.
- Dip oatmeal squares into custard mixture, allow to soak for 30 seconds on each side.
- Over medium-low heat, melt 1 tablespoon of butter or coconut oil in a non-stick pan.
- Place 2-3 slices of oatmeal 'bread' at a time into the pan and cook until golden brown, approximately 2 to 3 minutes per side.
- Remove from pan and place on a baking sheet and into the oven for 5-10 minutes.
- Repeat with all squares.
- Serve immediately with maple syrup or your favorite topping.
