I never saw it coming, but…
I’m starting to like baked oatmeal. I stopped incessantly craving stove-top oats and started truly appreciating the baked version. I suppose that’s a good thing since that’s what I’m stuck with right now.
Some might think it’s a drawback to have the same oatmeal every morning for a week, but I don’t see it as a problem. Generally, it’s delicious enough that I enjoy the encore breakfasts. 🙂 To be honest, I frequently repeated oatmeals even when I was making them on the stove each morning. If it really rocks, I want to experience it again! 🙂
What you'll need:
- 1/2 cup milk of choice
- 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup rolled oats (I use Country Choice Organic)
- 1/2 tsp apple pie spice
- 1/4 tsp baking powder
- pinch of salt
- 1 small apple (or half a larger one)
How to make it:
- Preheat the oven to 350 F and spray a single-serving ramekin with non-stick spray.
- In a small bowl, mix milk and vanilla extract. Add oats, pie spice, baking powder, and salt. Stir.
- Dice apple into the oats and fold them in.
- If you'd like to add any extra ingredients (coconut oil, dried fruit, nuts, sunflower seeds), do so now. I recommend raisins, almonds, or walnuts.
- Pour into the prepared ramekin and bake for 18-22 minutes.
