Ingredients
Scale
Dry
- 4 cups rolled oats
- 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
- 2 1/2 teaspoons cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon salt, optional
Wet
- 4 large apples, diced
- 1/3 cup maple syrup
- 2.5 cups unsweetened nondairy milk
- Juice of 1 lemon
- 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
Topping
- 1 cup chopped walnuts or pecans (or other nut)
- 1 cup raisins (or other dried fruit)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (or 190 C).
- Mix your dry ingredients in the bowl, form a well in the center, and add in the wet ingredients, stirring to combine.
- Transfer the mixture to a large baking dish and use a spatula to smooth the mixture down and make even, or press down lightly with your hands. It’s OK if a little liquid sits on top. If there’s a lot, as in, it’s sloshing if you jiggle the dish, sprinkle a small handful of extra rolled oats and press them down so they start to absorb that extra liquid.
- Sprinkle on your raisins and pecans (or whatever fruit and nut you like) and lightly press again.
- Bake uncovered for 35-40 minutes, or until lightly browned on top. Serve hot or cold. I like to serve this warm with a scoop of vanilla nice cream for a truly decadent-only-in-taste, healthy breakfast, or with some plain vegan yogurt and fruit for a lighter option.
- Refrigerate leftovers either in an airtight container or cover the baking dish with foil for up to 6 days.
