Ingredients
  

2 cups rolled oats

2 cups unsweetened almond milk (or preferred milk)

2 medium apples, peeled and chopped

1/2 cup applesauce (unsweetened)

1/4 cup maple syrup or honey (adjust based on sweetness preference)

1 teaspoon cinnamon

1/2 teaspoon nutmeg (optional)

1/4 teaspoon salt

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1/2 cup chopped walnuts or pecans (optional)

1/4 cup raisins or dried cranberries (optional)

Fresh apple slices for garnish

Instructions
 

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a 9x13 inch baking dish with cooking spray or olive oil.

    In a large bowl, combine the rolled oats, almond milk, apples, applesauce, maple syrup or honey, cinnamon, nutmeg (if using), salt, and vanilla extract. Mix until well combined.

      If desired, fold in the chopped walnuts or pecans and dried fruits for added texture and flavor.

        Pour the oatmeal mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it out evenly.

          Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the mixture is set. A toothpick inserted in the center should come out clean.

            Allow to cool slightly before slicing. Serve warm, garnished with fresh apple slices if desired.
