Ingredients

Process

Note, these instructions are written assuming the standard serving size, since you have modified the number of servings, these steps may need to be modified for best results
  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F. Line a 9x9-inch baking dish with parchment paper.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the oats, pecans, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, and chia seeds.
  3. In a small mixing bowl, mix together the milk, vanilla extract and maple syrup.
  4. In another small mixing bowl, toss together 1 heaping cup of chopped apples with the apple cinnamon seasoning until fully coated. Add the apples to the dry mixture and fold everything together. Then, pour in the wet ingredients and gently combine with the oat and apple mixture.
  5. Whisk the egg until well beaten, then add it to the mixing bowl. Mix everything together once more until fully combined.
  6. Transfer the mixture to the prepared baking dish, spreading it out evenly to ensure even cooking.
  7. Arrange the remaining ¼ cup of sliced apples on top of your oatmeal, then sprinkle with a little extra apple cinnamon seasoning for added flavor.
  8. Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the liquid is absorbed and the top is slightly golden brown. The oats will continue to set as they cool.
  9. Allow it to cool for a few minutes before slicing. Serve warm and enjoy as-is or drizzled with maple syrup or honey.

Notes

No need to worry if the mix seems a bit liquidy before baking—that’s normal! The oats will soak up the liquid as it bakes. Just spread the mixture evenly in the dish for uniform baking. If you only have quick oats, they’ll work fine too. Allow the bake to cool slightly before slicing to ensure it holds its shape. Nuts are optional but add a great touch. If you prefer or need to keep them out, that’s fine. Make sure your oats are gluten free if needed, and you can easily use dairy free milk. I like mine warm and simple, but my husband loves to drizzle maple syrup on top.
