Ingredients for Apple Oatmeal Breakfast

  • Oatmeal
  • Flour
  • Brown Sugar
  • Butter
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • ½ teaspoon salt

How to Make Apple Oatmeal Breakfast

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x13 inch baking pan.
  2. In a large bowl, combine 3 cups rolled oats, 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking soda, ½ teaspoon salt, and 1 teaspoon cinnamon.
  3. Add 1 cup packed light brown sugar, ½ cup granulated sugar, and 1 teaspoon ground nutmeg.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 large eggs, 1 cup milk, ½ cup melted unsalted butter, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
  5. Gently fold the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients until just combined. Do not overmix.
  6. Peel and chop 4 medium apples (about 4 cups). Gently fold the chopped apples into the oatmeal mixture.
  7. Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and spread evenly.
  8. Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  9. Let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy warm with a drizzle of maple syrup, a dollop of cream, or a scoop of vanilla ice cream!

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Chef's secret: layers of flavor make a dish truly memorable! Consider what a little extra something could bring – perhaps a touch of acidity like a good vinegar or citrus zest, a hint of smokiness from paprika, a bit of umami from mushrooms or soy sauce, or a sprinkle of toasted nuts for texture. Experiment and taste as you go!
