Ingredients
  

2 cups rolled oats

2 medium apples, peeled and diced (preferably Granny Smith or Honeycrisp)

1/2 cup unsweetened applesauce

1/4 cup maple syrup or honey

2 cups almond milk (or any milk of your choice)

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

1/2 teaspoon nutmeg

1/2 teaspoon baking powder

1/4 teaspoon salt

1/2 cup chopped walnuts or pecans (optional)

1/3 cup raisins or dried cranberries (optional)

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Begin by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x9-inch baking dish with cooking spray or a little coconut oil.

    Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt. If you're using nuts or dried fruit, add them to the mixture.

      Prepare Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the almond milk, applesauce, maple syrup (or honey), and vanilla extract until well combined.

        Combine Mixtures: Add the wet ingredients to the dry oat mixture. Stir until everything is evenly incorporated. Gently fold in the diced apples, making sure they are evenly distributed throughout the mixture.

          Transfer to Baking Dish: Pour the oatmeal mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it out evenly.

            Bake: Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for about 30-35 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and set.

              Cool and Serve: Once baked, remove the dish from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before slicing. Serve warm, optionally topped with a dollop of yogurt or a drizzle of maple syrup.

                Store Leftovers: Any leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days. Reheat individual portions in the microwave for a quick breakfast.
