Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups old-fashioned rolled oats (gluten-free if needed)
  • 1 1/2 cups Honeycrisp or Fuji apples, cored and diced into 1/2-inch pieces
  • 1/2 cup raw pecans, roughly chopped (divided)
  • 1 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 tsp ground nutmeg
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp fine sea salt
  • 1 3/4 cups whole milk (or unsweetened almond/oat milk)
  • 2 large eggs, lightly beaten
  • 1/3 cup pure maple syrup
  • 2 tbsp coconut oil or unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 tsp pure vanilla extract

Method
 

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease an 8x8-inch or 9x9-inch ceramic baking dish with coconut oil or butter.
  2. In a large bowl, mix together rolled oats, ground cinnamon, nutmeg, baking powder, sea salt, and half of the chopped pecans.
  3. Spread the oat mixture evenly into the baking dish, then scatter the diced apples evenly over the surface.
  4. In a separate bowl or measuring pitcher, whisk together the milk, eggs, maple syrup, melted coconut oil, and vanilla extract until smooth.
  5. Pour the liquid mixture slowly and evenly over the oats and apples. Gently tap the dish on the counter to help liquid settle. Scatter remaining pecans on top.
  6. Bake uncovered for 35 to 40 minutes until the center is set and edges are golden and lightly bubbling.
  7. Let rest for 10 minutes before slicing into squares. Serve warm with Greek yogurt and a drizzle of maple syrup.
