We had a great time celebrating the seeding of the 2.5-acre Pollinator Habitat at the Lorain County Agricultural Center this afternoon! π±π
Led by the Lorain County Conservation District, this exciting project brought together partners including the John Stengle Family, LEAP, Lorain County Commissioners, and the Northeast Ohio Chapter of Pheasants Forever to support pollinators and healthier local ecosystems. Pollinators play a critical role in our food systems and environmental health, making projects like this so important for our communities.
This is especially exciting as we gear up to implement a similar pollinator project not too far down the road from this site! πΌ We canβt wait to share more!
Little late on seeds this year but today is the day βοΈ.
Easy baked oatmeal with blueberries and bananas. Firms up after you bake and then can be cut into squares and warmed up during the week π .
.
Ingredients
2 medium ripe bananas, (the riper the better) sliced into 1/2β pieces, or mashed (see notes below)
1 pint blueberries
0.5 cup maple syrup, or honey
2 cups uncooked quick or rolled oats*
0.5 cup chopped walnuts or pecans
1 tsp baking powder
1.5 tsp cinnamon
pinch of salt
2 cups fat free milk, or any milk you desire
2 large eggs
2 tsp vanilla extract
Notes: Some people like to mash the bananas and add to the oat mix instead of layering in pan.
Any milk can be used.. Some people like things like almond milk.
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 375F. Lightly spray a 8 x 8β or 9 x 9β ceramic baking dish with cooking spray; set aside.
Arrange the banana slices in a single layer on the bottom of the ceramic dish.
Sprinkle half of the blueberries over the bananas, 1/4 tsp of the cinnamon, 1 tbsp of the honey and cover with foil.
Bake 15 minutes, or until the bananas get soft. (Skip this step if using mashed bananas).
Meanwhile, in a medium bowl, combine the oats, half of nuts, baking powder, remaining cinnamon, and salt; stir together.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the remaining honey, milk, egg, and vanilla extract.
Remove the bananas from the oven, then pour the oat mixture over the bananas and blueberries.
Pour the milk mixture over the oats, making sure to distribute the mixture as evenly as possible over the oats. Sprinkle the remaining blueberries and walnuts over the the top.
making baked oatmeal
Bake the oatmeal for about 30 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the oatmeal has set. Serve warm from the oven. Cut in 6 pieces.
