Ingredients

Scale

Oatmeal Bake Ingredients

  • 2 cups rolled oats
  • 2 cups almond milk
  • 2 apples, diced
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 1/4 cup maple syrup
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup walnuts, chopped (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) to ensure it reaches the perfect temperature for baking the oatmeal mixture evenly.
  2. Mix Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the rolled oats, almond milk, diced apples, brown sugar, maple syrup, cinnamon, nutmeg, salt, and vanilla extract. Stir well to evenly distribute all ingredients.
  3. Add Walnuts: If using, gently fold in the chopped walnuts to add a crunchy texture to the bake.
  4. Prepare Baking Dish: Lightly grease a baking dish to prevent sticking, then pour the oatmeal mixture evenly into the dish.
  5. Bake: Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 30 to 35 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the oatmeal is set.
  6. Cool and Serve: Allow the oatmeal bake to cool for a few minutes before serving to let it firm up slightly and enhance the flavors.
