Drescription

If you like the idea of a little something sweet for your weekend breakfast, this sticky-bun baked oats recipe could be the breakfast-dessert mashup you’ve been waiting for. While this breakfast with its warm spices and nutty pecan base is a tad sweeter than what we usually offer, a typical sticky bun can have upward of 17 grams of added sugar per serving. This version not only has less sugar, but you’ll also reap the benefits of 3 grams of fiber from oat flour.

Ingredients

  • baking spray with flour
  • 2 1/2 cups chopped pecans
  • 1/2 cup packed dark brown sugar
  • 1/3 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 3 tablespoons honey
  • 3 teaspoons ground cinnamon, divided
  • 2 cups oat flour
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 4 large eggs
  • 1 (5.3-ounce) container nonfat vanilla strained (greek-style) yogurt
  • 1 cup neutral oil, such as canola or avocado
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tablespoon vanilla extract

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F. Coat a 9-by-13-inch baking pan with baking spray. Combine pecans, brown sugar, butter, honey and 1 teaspoon cinnamon in a small bowl. Spread the mixture evenly in the bottom of the prepared pan.
  2. Whisk oat flour, all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt and the remaining 2 teaspoons cinnamon in a large bowl. Whisk eggs, yogurt, oil, granulated sugar and vanilla in a medium bowl until thoroughly combined. Whisk the yogurt mixture into the flour mixture until blended and smooth.
  3. Gently pour the batter over the pecan mixture in the pan. Lightly coat a rubber spatula with baking spray; use it to spread the batter evenly. Bake until the top is dry and the edges are just pulling away from the pan sides, about 25 minutes. Let stand for 20 minutes. Cut into slices and serve.

I'm always trying to come up with new recipes and this one is an adaptation of a tyrolean dessert which can be done with other grains such as rice and with any type of fruit (roasted apples and raspberries are also a good combination). This specific one uses amaranth, an ancient grain with fresh seasonal cherries. Hope you like it.
