Ingredients
- 2 3/4 cups (275g) old-fashioned rolled oats
- 3/4 cup (168g) packed light brown sugar
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 2 tsp ground cinnamon
- 1/4 tsp ground nutmeg
- 3/4 tsp salt
- 2 cups (480ml) milk
- 2 large eggs
- 1/2 cup (120ml) applesauce
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 4 tbsp (56g) unsalted butter, melted
- 3 1/2 cups (420g) diced apple, 2–3 large apples (like Honey Crisp or Gala)
Instructions
- Lightly grease a 9×13-inch baking pan with nonstick baking spray and set aside. Preheat the oven to 325°F.
- In a large bowl, combine the oats, brown sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt.
- Add the milk and eggs to another medium sized bowl and whisk together to combine.
- Add the milk mixture, applesauce, vanilla extract, butter and diced apples to the oat mixture and stir until well combined.
- Spread the mixture evenly into the prepared baking pan and bake for 35-40 minutes or until it is set. It may still jiggle a touch, but it should look set and not liquid-y.
- Serve warm or at room temperature. You can serve it as is or even serve with a little maple syrup.
