Servings: 6
Prep Time: 15 minutes
Cook Time: 35-40 minutes
Total Time: 50-55 minutes
Difficulty: (Easy)
Estimated Calories: ~300-350 per serving
2 cups (180g) old-fashioned rolled oats (use gluten-free if needed)
2 cups (480ml) unsweetened plant-based milk (oat or almond work great)
⅓ cup (80ml) maple syrup or agave nectar
2 cups (about 2 medium) apples, peeled and chopped (like Granny Smith or Honeycrisp)
½ cup (60g) chopped walnuts or pecans (optional)
For topping: 1 tbsp coconut sugar or brown sugar mixed with ¼ tsp cinnamon
1. Preheat and Prepare:
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease an 8x8 inch or similar baking dish.
2. Mix Dry Ingredients:
In a large bowl, whisk together the rolled oats, cinnamon, baking powder, salt, and nutmeg.
3. Mix Wet Ingredients:
In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the plant-based milk, maple syrup, ground flaxseed, and vanilla extract until well combined.
4. Combine and Add Apples:
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Gently fold in the chopped apples and nuts (if using).
5. Bake:
Pour the mixture into your prepared baking dish and spread it out evenly. Sprinkle the cinnamon-sugar topping over the surface.
Bake for 35-40 minutes, until the top is golden brown and the center is set.
6. Serve:
Let it cool for about 10 minutes before slicing. Serve warm straight from the pan. It's delicious on its own or with a splash of extra milk, a dollop of vegan yogurt, or a drizzle of almond butter.
Make-Ahead Tip: This is perfect for meal prep! Let it cool completely, then cover and store in the fridge for up to 5 days. Reheat individual portions in the microwave.
