Apple Pie Millet Breakfast Bake

This recipe was really good, my husband and kids especially loved it. My husband thought it tasted so much like apple pie. The cooking time is quite long, which makes it hard to prepare for breakfast if you have hungry little ones. We had this for brunch but I am wondering if an overnight crockpot method would work. I'll update if I figure that out. Recipe was inspired by healthful pursuit and modified to our liking.

-3/4 cup water
-1/2 cup apple juice
-2-4 medjool dates, pitted (I thought 4 was too sweet but everyone else in my family loved it)
-1 teaspoon vanilla
-1 teaspoon cinnamon
-1 tablespoon pure maple
-1 pinch ginger
-1 pinch nutmeg
-1/4 cup millet rinsed
-1 tablespoon quinoa rinsed
-1 apple diced (not peeled)

Preheat oven to 350, add first 8 ingredients to a blender and blend until smooth. Grease a round or square casserole dish with olive oil. Pour mixture into dish and add rinsed millet, quinoa and apple. Cover with foil and bake for 80 min or until grains are fully cooked and most liquid is gone. Top with walnuts/pecans, raisins, almond milk or whatever you think would be good!
