Make this Amish-Style Apple and Cinnamon Baked Oatmeal for a wholesome, comforting breakfast that tastes like a treat. It is easy to prepare ahead for busy mornings.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 1/2 cups rolled oats
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 cup packed brown sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 1/2 cups milk
  • 1/4 cup melted butter
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 large apple, peeled and diced
  • 1/4 cup chopped pecans (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit. Grease an 8×8 inch baking dish.
  2. In a large bowl, mix the rolled oats, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt. Stir in the brown sugar.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together the egg, milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract until combined.
  4. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just mixed. Do not overmix.
  5. Gently fold in the diced apple and pecans, if using.
  6. Pour the mixture evenly into the prepared baking dish.
  7. Bake for 35 to 40 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the center is set.
  8. Let the baked oatmeal cool for 5 minutes before slicing and serving.

Notes

  • For a make-ahead breakfast meal prep option, assemble the entire dish the night before, cover, and refrigerate. Add 5-10 minutes to the baking time if baking directly from the refrigerator.
  • Serve warm with a drizzle of maple syrup or a dollop of Greek yogurt for a balanced start to your day.
  • You can substitute the apple with 1 cup of frozen blueberries for a variation.
