Ingredients
  

2 cups rolled oats

2 medium apples, peeled and diced

1/2 cup unsweetened applesauce

2 cups almond milk (or any milk of your choice)

1/4 cup maple syrup or honey (adjust to taste)

1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 teaspoon cinnamon

1/4 teaspoon nutmeg (optional)

1/2 teaspoon baking powder

1/4 teaspoon salt

1/4 cup chopped walnuts or pecans (optional)

1/4 cup raisins or dried cranberries (optional)

Fresh apple slices and a sprinkle of cinnamon for topping (optional)

Instructions
 

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease a 9x9-inch baking dish.

    In a large mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt. Stir until well mixed.

      In another bowl, whisk together the almond milk, unsweetened applesauce, maple syrup (or honey), and vanilla extract until combined.

        Add the diced apples to the oat mixture, then pour the wet ingredients into the bowl. Stir until all ingredients are combined. If using, fold in the chopped nuts and dried fruits.

          Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it evenly. Smooth the top with a spatula.

            If desired, arrange fresh apple slices on top and sprinkle with a dash of cinnamon.

              Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the mixture is set.

                Remove from the oven and allow to cool for 5-10 minutes before slicing. Serve warm, optionally drizzled with more maple syrup, a dollop of yogurt, or a sprinkle of nuts.
