Ingredients

• 2 cups rolled oats, gluten-free
• 2 tsp ground cinnamon
• 1/2 tsp salt
• 1 tsp baking powder
• 2 cups almond milk
• 1/3 cup maple syrup
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• 2 medium apples, diced
• 1/2 cup walnuts, chopped

Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
2. Mix the rolled oats, ground cinnamon, salt, and baking powder in a large bowl until well combined.
3. Stir in the almond milk, maple syrup, and vanilla extract until the mixture is homogenous.
4. Fold the diced apples and chopped walnuts into the mixture gently to avoid breaking the apple pieces.
5. Transfer the mixture to a greased baking dish, ensuring an even spread across the bottom.
6. Place in the oven and bake for 40-45 minutes. The oatmeal is ready when the top has a golden-brown hue and the mixture has set.
7. Remove from oven and let cool for a few minutes to set further before serving.
8. Serve warm, optionally topping each serving with yogurt or an extra drizzle of maple syrup for added flavor.
