1 c. apple sauce
1 1/2 c. old fashioned oats
3 Tbsps. maple syrup
2 Tbsp. brown sugar
2 tsp. nutmeg
1 tsp. Vanilla
1 c. milk
2 Tbsp. Cinnamon Pear Balsamic
2 eggs
1 ripe banana, smashed (or grated apple or pear would be wonderful too)
1 1/2 Tbsp. Roasted Pumpkin Seed Oil
1/2 c. blueberries
1/4 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. baking powder
1/3 c. pecans
1 Tbsp. brown sugar
Preheat the oven to 375F. Mix all the other ingredients (except for the topping) in a mixing bowl until everything is well mixed. Spray a large pie plate with cooking spray and pour the blueberry oatmeal mixture into it, spreading it evenly with a rubber spatula. Sprinkle the top of the pie with pecans and sugar. Bake at 375 for about 40 minutes or until the pie is set and golden brown on top.
To serve, you can cut in wedges and eat it warm, with no topping, or for a fancier dessert oatmeal pie, you can top it with light vanilla ice cream (or vanilla Greek yogurt for an even healthier option!) and drizzle with a little reduced Cinnamon Pear Balsamic.
Note: You can change the flavor of the balsamic to any other fruit flavored balsamic like Blueberry, Maple, Dark Chocolate, etc.
