Baked Oats are an amazing meal prep idea for a healthy breakfast. And these Apple Pie Baked Oats are SO good, you’ll second guess if you’re actually eating dessert instead! Imagine chunks of Granny Smith apples, tons of cinnamon, and a maple-sweetened oatmeal base. You’ll make this over and over again!
For me, the quintessential holiday flavor is apple. I absolutely love apples as a snack, in a salad, or for dessert (duh!) Well, I really have a treat for you guys today – Apple Pie Baked Oats!
This makes such a hearty, and tasty breakfast. I used chunks of Granny Smith apples (some peeled, and some with the skin on for extra fiber) as well as the perfect combination of spices to really emulate a freshly baked apple pie. Almond milk keeps everything non-dairy…although I really would’ve used oat milk if we had some!
These are sweetened with maple syrup instead of straight-up sugar, so you definitely feel better about having it first thing in the morning. And for an extra layer of crunch, I stirred in some chopped walnuts; this is optional, however.
Similar to my PB&J Baked Oatmeal recipe, this is a super low-maintenance meal that comes together fairly quickly. And, you have leftovers for days so it’s the perfect breakfast to warm up and go! Try these Apple Pie Baked Oats for your next breakfast meal prep… and no one will say anything if you eat it as dessert!
Oh yeah; I also posted a video walk-through of exactly how to make this on my TikTok. You should follow me on there if you haven’t already! My handle is @coinedcuisine. It’s the best way to see a visual of how to cook all of my dishes, especially for those with a short attention span like me.
