Mince Pie Baked Oats

Start Christmas early with a festive treat! Mince Pie Baked Oats have all the flavour of a mince pie but considerably less guilt. Perfect for a filling breakfast or a decadent dessert.

I made this Mince Pie Baked Oats in one dish, but you could make little muffins if you prefer. The mix will probably make about 3 or even 4 muffins depending on the size of your tray.

As per all my other baked oats recipes, This Mince Pie baked oats, uses your healthy extra b choice of oats, a little bit of baking powder. I don’t bother to syn the baking powder, it is such a tiny amount that the syns are negligible.

To sweeten, I use Sukrin Gold which is a great natural tasting sweetener and perfect as a brown sugar replacement. I have tried many different types of sweetener in the past trying to find one that is natural and tastes natural and I think this is it. I usually just use some syns on honey or maple syrup, but it’s nice to know I can now use this and reduce the syns even further.

I then use just fat-free plain Greek yoghurt, you could totally use a flavoured variety that will compliment this recipe if you prefer, but I find plain yoghurt works best.

Then lastly into the batter for this Mince Pie baked oats, is an egg. I only use one as it really doesn’t need anymore.

Spray and grease your dish or muffin tray if you are splitting the mixture with spray oil.

Once greased, add the mincemeat, this goes in first, as once baked, you will flip over, so that amazing mincemeat is actually the top of your baked oats.

Spread the mincemeat across the bottom evenly, then pour in the oat mixture.

Place in the oven and bake for about 30-35 mins, I recommend just checking the centre is cooked before removing from the oven, a wooden skewer entered into the centre should come out clean.

Allow to cool slightly in the dish and then you can gently loosen the sides with a spatula.

Place a plate over the top of the dish and flip over and the baked oats should easily slide out onto your plate.

Dust over the top with a little icing sugar, and dig in and enjoy.
