Sweetened naturally with pure maple syrup and made dairy-free with almond milk, it’s a wholesome treat that’s easy to prepare and satisfying to enjoy.


Ingredients

Dry Ingredients

  • 2 cups rolled oats
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • 1/2 tsp nutmeg
  • 1/4 tsp salt

Wet Ingredients

  • 1 3/4 cups almond milk
  • 2 eggs
  • 1/3 cup pure maple syrup
  • 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract

Add-ins

  • 2 medium apples, diced small
  • 1/2 cup chopped pecans (or other nut)


Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven and Prepare Dish: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease an 8×8 inch casserole dish. If you use a different size dish, adjust the cooking time accordingly to ensure even baking.
  2. Combine Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together the rolled oats, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt thoroughly to evenly distribute the spices and leavening agent.
  3. Mix Wet Ingredients: In a medium bowl, beat together the almond milk, eggs, pure maple syrup, and vanilla extract until fully combined and smooth.
  4. Combine Wet and Dry Mixtures: Pour the wet mixture into the bowl with the dry ingredients, stirring gently until everything is combined and the oats are evenly coated.
  5. Add Apples and Pecans: Fold in the diced apples and chopped pecans carefully to distribute them throughout the mixture.
  6. Transfer to Baking Dish: Pour the batter into the prepared casserole dish, pressing down lightly to ensure the oats are soaked, and the mixture is evenly spread. Optionally, sprinkle extra pecans and apple pieces on top for added texture.
  7. Bake: Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake uncovered for 40 to 45 minutes, or until the oatmeal is set and lightly golden brown on top.
  8. Cool and Serve: Remove from oven and allow to cool for about 5 minutes before serving warm. This helps the baked oatmeal to set properly.
  9. Store Leftovers: Store any leftover baked oatmeal in the refrigerator in an airtight container. It can be reheated in the microwave or oven for a quick meal.

Notes

  • You can substitute almond milk with any other milk of your choice, such as cow’s milk or oat milk.
  • For a nut-free option, omit pecans or replace them with seeds like pumpkin or sunflower seeds.
  • Adjust sweetness by adding more or less maple syrup according to your taste preferences.
  • Leftover baked oatmeal keeps well refrigerated for up to 4 days, making it a great meal prep option.
  • Serve with a drizzle of extra maple syrup, a dollop of yogurt, or fresh fruit for added flavor.
