(0 Ratings)

This baked oatmeal transforms a simple breakfast staple into a delightful, cake-like dish. Rolled oats are baked with chunks of tender apple, fragrant cinnamon, and a hint of brown sugar, creating a wholesome and satisfying start to your day. It's easy to prepare, can be made ahead, and serves beautifully warm with a drizzle of maple syrup or a dollop of yogurt.

Ingredients

Instructions

  1. 1
    Preheat oven and prepare dish: Preheat oven to 190°C (375°F). Lightly grease an 8x8 inch (or similar 2-liter capacity) baking dish.
  2. 2
    Combine dry ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together the rolled oats, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt. Add the diced apples and brown sugar to the dry ingredients, stirring to coat the apples evenly. If using, stir in the chopped nuts.
  3. 3
    Combine wet ingredients: In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the egg, milk, melted butter (or coconut oil), and vanilla extract until well combined.
  4. 4
    Assemble oatmeal: Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients with the apples. Stir gently until just combined. Do not overmix. Pour the mixture evenly into the prepared baking dish.
  5. 5
    Bake: Bake for 30-40 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the oatmeal is set in the center. A knife inserted into the center should come out mostly clean.
  6. 6
    Serve: Let the baked oatmeal cool for a few minutes before serving. It's delicious warm, perhaps with a drizzle of maple syrup, a splash of milk, or a dollop of Greek yogurt.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I make this ahead of time?

Yes, you can assemble the oatmeal mixture and refrigerate it overnight (covered). In the morning, bake as directed, adding an extra 5-10 minutes to the baking time if baking from cold.

What kind of apples are best?

Crisp, slightly tart apples like Honeycrisp, Granny Smith (for more tartness), Gala, or Fuji work wonderfully. Avoid overly soft or mealy apples.

Can I add other fruits or spices?

Absolutely! Pears, berries (fresh or frozen), or dried cranberries would be great. For spices, a pinch of nutmeg or allspice would complement the apple and cinnamon nicely.
