Recipe type: Breakfast
Cuisine: American
Serves: 6 servings
Ingredients
- 1½ cups old-fashioned rolled oats (certified gluten free, if needed)
- 1½ to 2 cups apples (about 1 large), peeled, cored, and diced
- ½ cup dried cranberries, raisins, or blueberries (or a combination)
- ½ cup chopped walnuts or pecans (omit for nut-free)
- 3 cups unsweetened dairy-free milk beverage (use plain or vanilla for a sweeter result)
- 6 tablespoons packed brown sugar or coconut sugar (for less sweet)
- 1½ tablespoons coconut oil (can substitute dairy-free buttery spread)
- 1½ teaspoons ground cinnamon
- ¼ teaspoon salt
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350ºF and grease a 9x9-inch baking dish.
- Place the oats, apples, dried fruit, and nuts (if using) in your prepared baking dish and stir to combine. Even the mixture out in the pan.
- Add the milk beverage, sugar, oil, cinnamon, and salt to a medium saucepan over medium heat. Heat, while whisking, until the sugar is dissolved and the mixture is hot (steaming) but not yet boiling.
- Pour the milk beverage mixture slowly and evenly over the oat mixture in your baking dish.
- Bake uncovered for 30 to 40 minutes, or until the liquid has been absorbed and the oatmeal is tender.
- Let the apple cinnamon baked oatmeal cool for 10 minutes before serving, or cool it completely, cover, and store in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
