A warm and hearty baked oatmeal dish featuring apples and walnuts, perfect for breakfast or a cozy snack.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups (180g) old-fashioned rolled oats
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 2 tsp ground cinnamon
- 1/2 tsp sea salt
- 2 cups (480ml) milk (dairy or almond)
- 1 large egg
- 1/3 cup (80ml) maple syrup
- 2 tbsp (30g) melted coconut oil or butter
- 2 apples, peeled and chopped (about 2 cups / 240g)
- 1/2 cup (60g) chopped walnuts or pecans
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and generously grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.
- In a large bowl, combine the old-fashioned rolled oats, baking powder, ground cinnamon, sea salt, and half of the chopped walnuts or pecans. Mix well.
- In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the milk, large egg, maple syrup, and melted coconut oil or butter until fully combined.
- Evenly arrange the peeled and chopped apples in the bottom of the prepared baking dish, spreading them into a single layer.
- Sprinkle the dry oat mixture evenly over the apples.
- Pour the wet mixture evenly over the oats and apples, making sure all the oats are well soaked.
- Sprinkle the remaining chopped walnuts or pecans over the top for added crunch.
- Bake for 35–40 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the oatmeal is set and bubbly. A toothpick inserted into the center should come out mostly clean.
- Remove from the oven and let cool for 5–10 minutes before slicing and serving, allowing the bake to set properly.
