Description
This baked oatmeal is a delicious and nutritious breakfast option, featuring oats, apples, Greek yogurt, and walnuts.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1½ cups rolled oats
- 2 medium apples (about 2 cups chopped)
- 1 cup Greek yogurt
- ½ cup unsweetened apple sauce
- ½ cup milk (any)
- ¼ cup honey (or maple syrup)
- 1 large egg
- ⅓ cup chopped walnuts (or pecans)
- ¼ cup raisins (optional)
- 1½ teaspoons cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease an 8 x 8 inch baking dish so the oatmeal does not stick.
- In a large bowl, add ½ cup unsweetened apple sauce, 1 cup Greek yogurt, ½ cup milk, ¼ cup honey, 1 large egg, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract. Whisk until smooth and creamy.
- Add 1½ cups rolled oats, 1½ teaspoons cinnamon, 1 teaspoon baking powder, and a pinch of salt. Stir well until all the oats are coated and no dry oats remain.
- Stir in 2 medium apples (chopped) and ¼ cup raisins (if using).
- Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish. Spread it out evenly with the back of a spoon and top with ⅓ cup chopped walnuts.
- Bake at 375°F (190°C) for 35 to 40 minutes, until the center looks set and the top is lightly golden. Cool for 5 to 10 minutes before slicing and serving. It’s delicious with a dollop of Greek yogurt and a drizzle of maple syrup.
