creamy vegan apple cinnamon baked oatmeal
This Creamy Vegan Apple Cinnamon Baked Oatmeal is incredibly simple to make, but tastes rich, hearty, and delicious. It is perfect for a make-ahead breakfast on chilly fall mornings!
Servings: 6
Ingredients
- 2 ¼ cups old-fashioned oats I recommend One Degree Organics
- ½ cup brown sugar
- ½ cup applesauce
- 2 ½ cups nondairy milk I used oat milk
- 4 tablespoon vegan butter melted
- 2 tablespoon ground flaxseed
- 2 tablespoon hemp hearts
- 1 teaspoon apple pie spice
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
- ½ cup walnuts
- 1 apple diced small (about 1 cup)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375F, and lightly grease a baking pan. I used 11x7, but 9x9 or 9x13 also work (baking time may need to be adjusted).
- In a large bowl, combine the oats with the brown sugar, applesauce, milk, melted butter, ground flaxseed, and hemp hearts.
- Mix everything together, then add in the spices - apple pie spice, baking powder, salt, and vanilla extract.
- Finally, fold in the walnuts and apple pieces.
- Pour oatmeal mixture in the prepared pan, and sprinkle on additional brown sugar if desired. Bake for 30-35 minutes, until middle barely jiggles, and edges are set and caramelized.
- Enjoy warm! I like to pour some extra oat milk on top to make it extra creamy :)
