baked steel-cut oats and apples

I needed a breakfast oatmeal dish that I could warm and serve quickly. I had several baked oatmeal recipes, but they all had eggs--I wanted to try one without eggs. I particularly like that this recipe can be made ahead and warmed when needed. Also, the apples mostly float to the top, making an attractive, delicious oatmeal dish.

How To Make baked steel-cut oats and apples

  • 1
    Preheat oven to 375 degrees and spray an 8"x 8" pan with cooking spray.
  • 2
    Put oats and raisins in a large mixing bowl and pour boiling water over them.
  • 3
    Add apples, pumpkin pie spice, brown sugar, nuts, and salt -- stir until combined.
  • 4
    Add milk and stir again.
  • 5
    Pour into prepared dish and bake for 50-60 minutes or until browned and set. (Liquid is mostly incorporated/evaporated. Apples will be mostly on top.)

    Spoon out or cut portions to serve warm. Or cool and refrigerate. The oatmeal warms nicely in the microwave. I like to add a little milk before I warm it. Or freeze individual servings for a quick morning breakfast later.
