Instructions

Preheat the oven to 375°F.

Core the apples and dice into 1/2 inch cubes. Set aside.

Spray a 9-inch square baking dish liberally with nonstick cooking spray.

Place the oats, milk, egg, melted butter, brown sugar, maple syrup, vanilla extract, spices, and salt in a large mixing bowl. Stir until well combined.

Add the diced apples to the bowl and fold into the oat mixture.

Pour the oatmeal mixture into the prepared baking dish.

Bake the oatmeal on middle rack of oven until edges are golden and the center is firm, 45-50 minutes.

Check to see that oatmeal is done. Remove from oven or add time as needed.

Allow the oatmeal to cool for 5 minutes. Serve drizzled with maple syrup.

Tips & Tricks (5)

Apple Selection Mastery 🍎
Choose firm, tart baking apples like Granny Smith or Honeycrisp to prevent mushiness and maintain texture in your baked oatmeal.
Spice Bloom Technique 🌶️
Toast ground spices like cinnamon, nutmeg, and allspice in the butter for 30 seconds before mixing to intensify their aromatic flavors.
Moisture Magic 💧
Let the mixed oatmeal batter rest for 10-15 minutes before baking to allow the oats to absorb liquid and create a more tender, custard-like texture.
Caramelization Pro Tip 🍯
Drizzle a thin layer of maple syrup on top of the oatmeal before baking to create a beautiful golden-brown caramelized surface.
Make-Ahead Magic 🥣
Prepare the entire dish the night before and refrigerate, allowing flavors to meld overnight for an even more delicious morning breakfast.
