Description

This Healthy Baked Apple Oatmeal is a comforting and nutritious breakfast bake made with rolled oats, almond milk, diced apples, and warm spices.

Ingredients

Scale

Oatmeal Base

  • 2 cups old fashioned rolled oats
  • 1 ½ cups almond milk
  • 1 beaten egg
  • 2 tablespoons maple syrup
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil

Fruit and Nuts

  • 1 cup diced apples
  • ¼ cup chopped pecans

Spices

  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • ½ teaspoon ground ginger
  • ¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven and Prepare Dish: Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Grease an 8×8-inch oven-safe baking dish thoroughly to prevent sticking.
  2. Mix Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, almond milk, beaten egg, maple syrup, olive oil, diced apples, chopped pecans, ground cinnamon, ground ginger, and ground nutmeg. Stir the mixture well until all ingredients are evenly distributed and combined.
  3. Pour Batter into Dish: Transfer the mixture into the prepared baking dish. The batter will appear quite liquidy at this stage, but rest assured it will absorb as it bakes.
  4. Bake Until Set: Place the dish in the oven and bake uncovered for 35 to 40 minutes. The oatmeal is ready when the top turns golden brown and the liquids are fully absorbed.
  5. Serve and Store: Enjoy the baked oatmeal warm or cold. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week. Avoid keeping it at room temperature to prevent spoilage.

Notes

  • The apples and pecans add a delightful crunch, but you can substitute pecans with walnuts, almonds, or macadamia nuts to suit your preference.
  • This recipe is perfect for meal prepping, providing a quick and nutritious breakfast or snack throughout the week.
  • You can double the recipe and freeze individual portions to reheat easily for a convenient breakfast anytime.
