This healthy baked apple oatmeal is a nutritious and delicious breakfast option, combining hearty rolled oats with sweet diced apples, warming spices, and crunchy pecans. Naturally sweetened with maple syrup and baked to golden perfection, it makes a perfect make-ahead meal that can be enjoyed warm or cold.

Ingredients

Dry Ingredients

  • 2 cups old fashioned rolled oats
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • ½ teaspoon ground ginger
  • ¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • ¼ cup chopped pecans

Wet Ingredients

  • 1 ½ cups almond milk
  • 1 cup diced apples
  • 2 tablespoons maple syrup
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 beaten egg

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit and grease an 8×8 inch oven-safe baking dish to prevent sticking.
  2. Mix Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine all the rolled oats, diced apples, chopped pecans, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, almond milk, maple syrup, olive oil, and beaten egg. Stir well until all ingredients are thoroughly mixed.
  3. Pour Batter: Pour the combined mixture into the prepared baking dish. The batter may appear quite liquidy at first, but it will absorb as it bakes, so do not be concerned.
  4. Bake: Bake the oatmeal uncovered in the preheated oven for 35 to 40 minutes, or until the top turns golden brown and all the almond milk has been absorbed.
  5. Serve and Store: Enjoy the baked oatmeal warm or cold. To store, place it in an airtight container and refrigerate. This will keep for up to one week. Do not leave at room temperature as it may develop mold or become stale.

Notes

  • You can substitute almond milk with any plant-based or dairy milk.
  • For a vegan version, replace the egg with a flax or chia egg.
  • Add a splash of vanilla extract for extra flavor if desired.
  • Use fresh or frozen apples as preferred.
  • Try swapping pecans for walnuts or almonds to vary texture and flavor.
