This apple cinnamon baked oatmeal is inspired by traditional Amish baked oatmeal and studded with apples, raisins and loads of cinnamon flavor. It’s vegan, gluten-free and great for meal prep.
I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again… baked oatmeal is the best thing since overnight oats! Each month, I’ve been making a seasonal baked oatmeal flavor and this month it’s apple cinnamon baked oatmeal!
This apple cinnamon baked oatmeal is inspired by one of my favorite seasons: fall! I love visiting apple orchards and creating alllll the apple recipes. My ideal weekend would involve a cool, crisp morning, a cozy sweater and some sort of baked apple treat.
Why You’ll Love This Recipe
- The apple cinnamon combo is chef’s kiss and perfect for fall!
- It’s perfect for meal prep! Make a batch during your weekend meal prep and have breakfast ready to go for the week.
- Easy to make directly in one bowl. Yay for less dishes!
- It’s vegan, dairy-free, gluten-free and nut-free.
Who Invented Baked Oatmeal?
Since my obsession with baked oatmeal, I’ve been determined to figure out who invented baked oatmeal. I’ve yet to find the answer, but a lot of the old baked oatmeal recipes I’ve found come from the Amish, who made baked oatmeal to fuel their long days working on the farm.
Most of the Amish baked oatmeal recipes involve apples, raisins, and cinnamon so the recipe I’m sharing is inspired by that flavor combination, but without the butter, eggs, and milk! We’re keeping things vegan and dairy-free for my version!
I’ve made a similar version before with steel cut oats, but this version is just as tasty and cooks up a bit faster. Here’s the baked steel cut oatmeal recipe, if you’re interested.
Ingredients Needed
- rolled oats – makes for a super creamy bowl of oatmeal and are my personal favorite! Make sure you grab certified gluten-free if necessary. I like Bob’s Red Mill Gluten Free Rolled Oats.
- unsweetened applesauce – make your own homemade applesauce or use store-bought. Just make sure it’s unsweetened if you go that route.
- non-dairy milk – I like using unsweetened vanilla almond milk. You can also make homemade almond milk using my recipe. You can use whatever milk you prefer!
- flaxseed – flaxseeds are great sources of healthy fats, fiber and even plant-based protein!
- maple syrup – one of my preferred natural sweeteners. You can totally skip this or use another liquid sweetener like honey or agave.
- coconut oil – gives the baked oatmeal a nice moist texture.
- baking powder – rising agent that helps lighten the texture of the baked oatmeal. It prevents it from becoming too dense or heavy.
- vanilla extract, ground cinnamon and sea salt – to enhance the flavors!
- apples – you’ll need about 1-2 apples, peeled and finely chopped into pieces.
- raisins – the perfect companion to apples and cinnamon!
How to Make
Baked oatmeal is pretty much just a matter of mixing and baking. Nothing fancy!
In a large bowl, add the rolled oats, cinnamon, baking powder, salt, almond milk, flaxseed, unsweetened applesauce, maple syrup, coconut oil and vanilla and stir to combine. Fold in the raisins and diced apples.
Pour the oat mixture into a prepared baking pan, top with a few extra apple slices and bake at 375ºF for about 40 minutes or until the center is set.
This apple cinnamon baked oatmeal recipe is absolutely delicious with a drizzle of almond butter, a splash of almond milk, or maple syrup on top.
Substitutions & Notes
Oats – Rolled oats work best for baked oatmeal and I don’t recommend swapping them for quick oats or steel-cut oats as the liquid ratio and cook time will differ. If you’re looking for a baked oatmeal recipe that’s made with steel-cut oats I suggest checking out this apple baked steel cut oatmeal recipe instead.
Milk – Any non-dairy milk will work here. Almond, oat, soy, or even coconut milk can be used depending on your preference.
Sweetener – If you’re out of maple syrup, you can substitute with honey or agave syrup. Just note that this will slightly alter the flavor profile.
Flaxseed – Chia seeds can be a good alternative to flaxseed if you’re looking for another source of omega-3 fatty acids. Or you can use 1 egg if you don’t need this recipe to be vegan.
Coconut oil – If you prefer not to use coconut oil, you can substitute with another mild-flavored oil like avocado oil or even melted unsalted butter for a non-vegan option. I’ve also made baked oatmeal without coconut oil and it turned out just fine!
Raisins – Feel free to swap out the raisins for other dried fruits like cranberries or chopped dried apricots for a different twist. Another good substitute would be nuts like chopped walnuts or pecans.
Spices – If you want to add even more spice to this baked apple oatmeal recipe you could add a dash of nutmeg, ginger, allspice and/or apple pie spice.
How to Serve Apple Baked Oatmeal
Baked oatmeal is not only a great everyday breakfast recipe, it’s also a lovely addition to a brunch spread. Here are some ideas on what to serve it with:
- Eggs: Pair it with a savory egg dish! Try this dairy-free spinach quiche or this delicious hash brown breakfast casserole.
- Fruit: a bowl of fresh fruit like this easy fruit salad recipe will be an excellent addition to serve alongside this baked oatmeal.
- Cocktail: if you’re serving this recipe for an adult brunch pair it with some mimosas or these peach bellinis.
- Coffee: serve this baked oatmeal with a warm cup of plain coffee, this creamy iced coffee or a homemade pumpkin spice latte.
- Toppings: I love adding a drizzle of maple syrup and sliced apple with a dash of cinnamon for something sweet, but there’s plenty of other options. Try adding some crushed nuts for a bit of a crunch. Or enjoy with a dollop of your favorite yogurt for some added protein!
- As a dessert: Transform this healthy breakfast into a dessert by adding a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream and a drizzle of this date caramel sauce.
Can You Make Baked Oatmeal Ahead of Time?
Yes, you can totally make baked oatmeal ahead of time, and that makes it perfect for meal prep! There are a couple of options that work really well.
Option 1: Bake and Then Reheat Before Serving
- Prepare baked oatmeal as the recipe suggests. Once baked, let the oatmeal cool, then cover the baking dish and place in the fridge. You can do this 1-2 days in advance. When ready to serve, take oatmeal dish from fridge, cover with foil and reheat in a 350°F oven for about 20 minutes. For individual portions, set toaster oven to 350°F and bake for 5-10 minutes or reheat in the microwave for 1 minute.
Option 2: Prep as Much as You Can Without Baking
- Mix together your dry ingredients in a bowl, cover and let sit out on the counter until morning.
- Mix together all the wet ingredients in another bowl, cover and store in the fridge until morning.
- In the morning, simply mix the wet and dry ingredients together, pour oatmeal mixture into your prepared baking dish and bake as recipe suggests.
How to Store & Reheat
- In the fridge: Allow the baked oatmeal to cool, then cover the baking dish with a lid or plastic wrap or transfer individual portions to an airtight container. It’ll stay fresh in the fridge for up to 5 days.
- In the freezer: You can also freeze baked oatmeal for up to 3 months. To do this, let the oatmeal cool completely, then cut into portions and store in freezer-safe containers or bags.
- To reheat the entire pan of baked oatmeal: Cover with foil and reheat in the oven at 350ºF for about 20 minutes or until warm.
- To reheat individual portions: Set oven or toaster oven to 350ºF and bake for 5-10 minutes. You can also reheat in the microwave for 1 minute. Once warm, add your toppings and enjoy!

This past weekend, I’ve viewed this recipe so many times because of how great it looks and sounds! I’m planning to make it soon and love that incorporates seasonal produce, like apples, which are ideal this time of year!
Yay!! I can’t wait to hear what you think, Melissa. <3

Hi Kate! I’m so happy to hear you loved the recipe! Thank you for sharing and for taking the time to come back and leave a comment – it means the world to me! 🙂
Can you leave out the flaxseed? My son is allergic to that. Would I need to add an egg in place of the flaxseed?
You can leave out the flaxseed or replace the flaxseed with an egg. Either option should work fine. Let me know how the recipe turns out if you try it.
Could I use flaxseed meal instead?
Yes, that’s the same thing as ground flaxseed. 🙂
Loving your baked oatmeal recipes! I just made the apple one today and will enjoy this week. I make a full size, eat it for two days and freeze the rest. They freeze very well. I know your hands will be full soon, but I’m requesting a pumpkin oatmeal bake from you!
Ahh! I’m so glad that you’re loving the baked oatmeal recipes, Sarah. And thank you for coming back to leave a comment and star rating on the apple cinnamon baked oatmeal. It’s super helpful and means so much to me. In terms of the pumpkin baked oatmeal, it’s like you read my mind. I already have it planned for October. I love that these baked oatmeals can be frozen too. I’m planning to make some to freeze before the baby arrives.

This is sooo good!!! In one week I already made two batches! We went apple picking so I am thrilled about using up those apples! Am planning on shredding the apple next time so my 11-month old can eat some too! Thanks so much!
Oh yay, I am so happy to hear that you’re enjoying this recipe! I love the idea of shredding the apples. Thanks so much for coming back to leave a comment and star rating. I so appreciate it, Brianna!
Great recipe! I’m vegan and love trying new recipes!!
I’m so happy to hear that you enjoyed this recipe, Stephanie! Thank you for taking the time to leave a comment and star rating. I really appreciate it. <3
Can this be mixed the night before and baked the next morning? I have the ingredients to make it for breakfast for a group tomorrow. I’m excited to try it! 🙂
Hey Leslie! Yes, you can totally do this, but I recommend combining all the dry ingredients in a bowl and combining the wet ingredients in a separate bowl the night before. The morning of, simply mix the two together, pour into your baking dish and bake! The oats tend to soak up quite a bit of the milk overnight (kind of like overnight oats). If you don’t have a choice and need to fully prep the oatmeal bake ahead of time, that’s fine. It might just seem a little bit drier than normal after baking. If this happens, just serve with a splash of milk. Let me know how it turns out for you!
Absolutely delicious and so easy!!!!Love it! I’ll be making this on a regular basis!!
Woo-hoo!! I’m so happy to hear that. Thank you for taking the time to leave a comment and star rating, Anne. I so appreciate it! <3
Hi, im from Mexico! I have a conventional mini oven and i baked the recepie for 1 hour and the consistency and texture is still very runny i cant cut it, its like puddin, not like cake, i followed the recepie closely, do you think i should bake it more time? Or make the batter thiner in a bigger baking dish so it cooks better?´
Thank you
Hey Mariana! I have never tried baking this in a conventional mini oven, so I’m not too sure. I would assume it would need more time to make though. What size pan did use?
I love this! I leave out the raisins bc I’m not a fan, and I replace the maple syrup with honey. This time I added some pecans on top and drizzled honey almond butter on top! Great to make ahead of time and portion out for breakfast during the week!
I’m so glad you’re loving this baked oatmeal recipe, Kimberly! Thank you for coming back to leave a comment and star rating, I so appreciate it! <3
So, so delicious! I’ve just been eating plain oatmeal but this is a total game changer- especially with some peanut butter drizzled on top. I will definitely be keeping this recipe in my household. Thank you for sharing it!
Yay! So glad you’re loving this recipe, Ashleigh! Thanks for coming back to leave a comment and star rating. I really appreciate it. <3

Yay!! That makes me so happy to hear, Penny. Thanks for giving this recipe a try and for coming back to leave a comment and star rating. I so appreciate it!
Can I use quick cooking oats by chance?
I haven’t made baked oatmeal with quick cooking oats, but I assume it would work fine. You might just need to adjust the cook time. Let me know if you try it.
This was so delicous! However, I live with many gluten-intolerant people, and I was wondering how I could make this gluten free so I can share the yummy-ness with everyone!
Hey Scarlett – Oats are naturally gluten-free, so this recipe is already GF 🙂 But, if the people you live with have celiac disease or an intolerance to gluten, I would make sure to get certified GF oats to ensure there is no cross contamination.
I love this recipe. I make this one and rotate with other baked oatmeal recipes from EBF every single week. It’s such an easy meal to prepare and it’s wonderful for eating throughout the week. I have gotten so fast at making it that I shortly put it in the oven after it’s done preheating. I started making this when I was out on maternity leave and continue to do so now that I am at work. I never get tired of it!
Ahh that makes me so happy to hear, Carly!! I’m so glad you’re loving all the baked oatmeal recipes. Thanks for coming back to leave a comment + star rating. It means the world to me. <3
I made this recipe during apple picking season, and meant to post a review. DELICIOUS! Easy to make, healthy, and tastes like autumn any time of the year. 🙂
I’ve been making Brittany’s baked oatmeal recipes for breakfast prep this past month. This apple cinnamon recipe is by far my favorite! Healthy, easy to prepare and it keeps very well throughout the week. I add a big dolop of peanut butter and stick it in the microwave and its an AWESOME breakfast every time.I’m heavy handed with the apple / raisin ratio but you cant have too many!
Ahh this makes me so happy to hear, Jay!! I’m glad you’re loving the baked oatmeal recipes. Thank you so much for taking the time to come back and leave a comment + star rating. It means the world to me. <3
Delicious! Loved this recipe. Husband added milk to his and I drizzled almond butter on mine. So good – great way to start the day. Thanks for the great recipes!
Ahh that makes me so happy to hear, Michele!! So glad this baked oatmeal was a hit. Thanks for taking the time to come back and leave a comment and star rating. I really appreciate it. <3
Hi Brittany,
This was delicious!
However, I made few changes to your original recipe.
I basically used what I had in hand: dates instead of raisins, banana pure instead of applesauce and oat milk.
Many thanks for this
I had two squares with oat milk and cinnamon 🙂
Amazing recipe and super easy to make. Gave me a little taste of home while I am away at college. Thank you so much!
Note: I used quick oats and it decreased the cooking time by about 5-10 minutes.
So glad you enjoyed this recipe, Emily!! Thanks for sharing your notes with us and for coming back to leave a comment and star rating. I really appreciate it.
Oh my gosh, Brittany… just made this oatmeal bake this morning and it was absolutely amazing!!!! It tastes almost like an incredible bread pudding kind of situation. My husband (who doesn’t typically like anything healthy lol) couldn’t stop raving about it and literally said, “Ok, you HAVE to save this recipe. THIS is a winner!”
Note: I didn’t have everything on hand so instead just used what I did have (#covidbaking): 1/2 an apple, yogurt in place of applesauce, omitted coconut oil, and soda water in place of baking powder (thank you, internet, for sub suggestions lol).
Amazing recipe – will definitely repeat a ton! : )
Delicious recipe loved by all the family. Great warm for breakfast or cold as a snack on the go.
I’m so glad this baked oatmeal recipe was a hit with your family, Chantelle! Thanks for trying it and for coming back to leave a comment + star rating. I so appreciate it!
I mixed this up yesterday and it turned out rubbery and gummy. Should this be drier or soft? I was a bit disappointed in the texture but the flavour is great.
I was using coconut milk as I’m dairy free. Do you think that makes a difference?
Oh no!! Did you change anything about the recipe? The coconut milk should be just fine. SO it was rubbery and gummy after cooking? It might have needed to cook for longer.
Brittany,
We LOVE your baked oatmeal! I discovered your recipes about a year ago when I was trying to find healthier breakfasts. Now I always have some baked oatmeal in the fridge and we have it almost every morning! My favourites are apple, blueberry, and peanutbutter banana. Thanks for being a great resource for healthy recipes!
Ahhh that makes me so happy to hear, Kaleigh!! I’m glad you guys are loving all the baked oatmeal recipes. Thanks for coming back to leave a comment + star rating. It means the world to me. <3

Are there any tweaks I should make if using steel cut oats? I made the mistake of buying a large bag from Costco that I can never make successfully on the stovetop. I have old fashioned rolls oats too but those I can actually cook lol!
Hey Jen – If you want to make an oatmeal recipe with steel cut oats here are a few I recommend: Apple Cinnamon Steel Cut Baked Oatmeal, Creamy Steel Cut Oats and Slow Cooker Steel Cut Oats.
Have just made this hopefully it will toast as amazing as it smells. First time I have made this
Yay!! Let me know what you think of it when you try it. 🙂
Ok, this is seriously delicious. This has been my meal prep breakfast for 3 weeks now and I haven’t gotten tired of it yet lol! It’s delicious without needing any extra maple syrup on top 😋
Question: Can I add protein powder to this recipe? Would I need to adjust any of the ingredients? TIA!
Ahh yay! That makes me so happy to hear, Erin! So glad you’ve been loving this recipe. You can add protein powder to this recipe. I’d start with 1/2 cup and you should be fine with the ratios as is, but you can always add a bit more liquid if you feel as though it needs some more. 🙂 Let me know how it turns out for you!
I’m loving this recipe I need something easy like this that I could make I take a can of apples and put that on top I didn’t have regular apples but I did want to test if Apple’s I had to substitute for the maple syrup I had to use honey because I have some time I have a sugar attack early in the morning when I get up so I have to have something that’s not going to Spike my sugar up
So glad you’re loving this recipe, Pauline! Thanks for taking the time to come back to leave a comment + star rating. I really appreciate it. 🙂
I’ve been wanting to make this for so long but have put it off because I thought it would be difficult to make, but I meal prepped it this week and I’m so happy I did! It’s so easy to make, and so good! When i eat it I put a little bit of Splenda and maple syrup on top and I love it
Ahh yay, so glad you finally got to try this recipe and so glad it was a hit! Thanks for coming back to leave a comment + star rating. I so appreciate it. <3
We’re a dairy and peanut free family due to my sons allergies. We had everything on hand! Love that I didn’t have to sub anything from once. It was a hit!
I love it when that happens!! So glad this baked oatmeal was a hit, Erica. Thanks for making it and for coming back to leave a comment + star rating. I so appreciate it!
Made as stated but added some extra apple and walnuts. Delicious and topped with dairy free yogurt! Will make again!!!
Yay, so glad you enjoyed this baked oatmeal recipe, Karen! Thanks for making it and for coming back to leave a comment + star rating. I appreciate it!
Amazing recipe, as usual! Never disappoints
LOVE this recipe!! Simple, easy, and delicious! It gets me right in the fall spirit (and winter, and spring, and summer). I definitely needed this baked oatmeal recipe in my life.
Delicious, easy breakfast to warm me up on a cosy fall morning! Amazing with almond butter and a hot cup of tea!
I kept my apple pieces quite big so they had a nice slight bit of crunch to them, although it meant that the oats didn’t hold together quite as well!
Thanks for the recipe, perfect for those autumn apple gluts!
I plan to rate this 5 stars because it sounds delicious!! I’m just curious if I can skip the coconut oil and flaxseed? Making this last minute and didn’t check that I have all the ingredients first. Any thoughts?
Thank you so much!!
Hey Alicia – you could use an egg instead of the flax egg and if you have extra applesauce on hand, you could sub more of that in for the coconut oil.
Just made a batch to share with my toddler, it smells amazing! I left out the raisins (choking risk under 4) but otherwise follow the recipe exactly. Yum!
Yay!! Thanks for making it, Laura. I hope you guys love it. 🙂
Loved it!!! Quick to prep and so comforting!
This is the best baked oatmeal recipe I have ever made! Thank you
Ahh yay, that makes me so happy to hear, Cindy!!
So excited to make this recipe today! I scrolled through the comments to see if anyone had made it in the crockpot but didn’t see. Any ideas for timing if I throw it in the crock pot?
Hey Jennifer – If you’re looking for a crock pot recipe, I would make this apple cinnamon oatmeal instead.
Made it this morning, it was a hit and everyone (kids) asked for seconds. May have to make again tomorrow! Thanks!
Ahh yay!! I’m so pumped this recipe was a hit with your family, Beth. Thanks for coming back to leave a review, I so appreciate it!
Soo good!!! I’ll be making all winter 🙂
This tastes like apple pie!!!! I forgot the vanilla, oil and only used apples and OMG. AMAZING. Thank you!
Ahh yay, I’m so glad this recipe turned out for you! Thanks for the review. 🙂
Thank you for this. It’s amazingly delicious. I’ve made it a few times already along with some of your other recipes. Yum!
Makes the house house smell great too.
So glad you loved this recipe, Jennie. Thanks for making it and for coming back to leave a review. I so appreciate it!
This looks amazing! Only Q I’ve got is, I can’t get my hands on unsweetened applesauce so if I use ‘normal’ sweetened applesauce would it be best to cut out the maple syrup?
Thanks! I can’t wait to make this 🙂
Yeah, I would probably cut down on the maple syrup if you use sweetened apple sauce. You can also make your own unsweetened applesauce at home too. 🙂
I have steel cut oatmeal and wonder how to substitute. Do I cook the steel cut first and then proceed? Cook the steel cut to “undercook” ? Thank you
Hi Maggie! I would use my recipe for apple baked steel cut oatmeal. You won’t need to cook them first and it’s delish!!
I made this with some modifications based on what I had on hand (skim milk, granny smith apples, dried cranberry, butter). It provided 6 days of a great breakfast that really staved off hunger for hours. It takes longer to warm up in my toaster over (I blame the appliance) so I re-warm at 425. Really appreciate the recipe. Thank you!
So glad you enjoyed this recipe! Thanks for the review. I really appreciate it!
My kids love this one and eat it for breakfast almost every day!
Woo!! I’m so glad it’s a hit with your kiddos. Thanks for the review. I so appreciate it. 🙂
Could I make this without apple sauce? Do I substitute it with anything?
You can sub in mashed bananas instead if you prefer.
These apple cinnamon oats were so good I had a slice for breakfast AND for dessert! It tastes like an apple crumble and makes the house smell incredible. I omitted the applesauce and added chopped walnuts for crunch. Yum, can’t wait to have more for breakfast tomorrow morning! Thank you for yet another delicious baked oatmeal recipe! 🙂
So glad you loved this recipe!! Thanks for making it and for coming back to leave a review, Caroline. I so appreciate it. 🙂
I made this morning for breakfast. It’s so easy and yum… I put it in the oven and jumped into the shower. Top it with peanut butter and slice of apple…
Want to try another baked oatmeal!
Thanks for the recipe…
Woo!! So glad you loved it, Mimy. Thanks for the review. I so appreciate it!
Quick recipe with easy swappable and accessible ingredients. I mix everything straight in the baking form, so one bowl less to clean. And as extra: my flat smells amazing!
Thanks for the recipe! 🙂
So glad you loved this recipe, Anita!! Thanks for the review, I appreciate it!
Yummy!
I’ve made this at least 5 times since discovering it a month ago. A perfect combo of fruits and cinnamon. I sometimes add toasted pecans on top too!
Woo!! That makes me so happy to hear, Sydney. Thanks for the review, I so appreciate it!
Yet another baked oatmeal to add to our growing list. This is definitely a favorite of my husband, who LOVES all things apple pie. I love making a double batch as we freezing portions for mornings when we need some quick.
Woo!! That makes me so happy to hear, Mandy. I’m so glad this one was a hit. Thanks for the review, I really appreciate it. 🙂
So so good! Great for a Saturday Morning Breakfast. I was out of vanilla extract so I used almond extract. It turned out well! #ebfrecipeclub
Woo!! So glad you loved this recipe, Heather!! And just an FYI for the recipe club, you have to just leave a comment/review on this blog post instead. 🙂
Can I use chia seeds instead of flax? Thank you
Yes!!
I LOVE this recipe! It is my all time favorite baked oatmeal! I have made it several times. It’s definitely a keeper and is on rotation often! I actually just pulled it from the oven and will be digging in shortly!
Ahh yay!! That makes me so happy to hear, Shana. Thanks for coming back to leave a review. I so appreciate it!
LOVE all your baked oatmeal’s but I think this one is my (and my husbands) favorite. I’m making it today to meal prep for maternity leave. Any tips on freezing and reheating?
I plan to make and cook it and the let it cool, cover with foil and then freeze but when it comes to reheating I’m stumped!
I’ll take any tips! Thank you!
Suzanne
So glad you’re loving the baked oatmeal recipes, Suzanne!! And yes, you can definitely freeze them. When freezing, I typically portion the baked oatmeal out and freeze individual servings to make it easier for reheating. To reheat individual portions, set oven or toaster oven to 350ºF and bake for 5-10 minutes. You can also reheat in the microwave for 1 minute. Once warm, add your toppings if using and enjoy!
This was so good!! It’s now one of my favorite breakfast options! It saves me time in the morning since I can prep it ahead of time, and it has a lot of flavor! Delicious!!
Woo!! That makes me so happy to hear. I’m pumped you loved this recipe. Thanks for coming back to leave a review. I appreciate it!
This apple cinnamon baked oatmeal is delicious! It was so easy to meal prep and eat for breakfast all week. It was also great with ice cream straight out of the oven when it smelled too good to wait until morning to try. Like a healthy apple crisp!
So glad you loved this recipe!! Thanks for the review. I so appreciate it!
This be mixed up the night before and left in the fridge to bake in the morning?
Hey Stephanie – I wouldn’t combine all the ingredients together and let them sit overnight because the oats will soak up a lot of the liquid. This is what I would do if you wanted to prep it in advance:
Option 1:
Prepare baked oatmeal as the recipe suggests. Once baked, let the oatmeal cool, cover the baking dish and place in the fridge. You can do this 1-2 days in advance. When ready to serve, take oatmeal dish from fridge, cover with foil and reheat in a 350°F oven for about 20 minutes. For individual portions, set toaster oven to 350°F and bake for 5-10 minutes or reheat in the microwave for 1 minute.
Option 2:
Mix together your dry ingredients in a bowl, cover and let sit out on the counter until morning.
Mix together all the wet ingredients in another bowl, cover and store in the fridge until morning.
In the morning, simply mix the wet and dry ingredients together, pour oatmeal mixture into your prepared baking dish and bake as recipe suggests.
Loved it! I used pecans instead of raisins and added some cinnamon to the top. Heated up with some maple syrup- yum!!
So glad you loved this recipe, Jen!! Thanks for coming back to leave a review. I so appreciate it!
Yum! I left out the maple syrup and I ate 1/4 as the portion size, really liked it!
So glad you loved this baked oatmeal, Elise. Thanks for the review. I so appreciate it!

Woo!! So glad it was a hit with your family, Anna. Thanks so much for coming back to leave a review. I so appreciate it!!
This is my favorite of all of Brittany’s baked oatmeal recipes! I made it as written, and I topped with almond butter – YUM! I stored the leftovers in the fridge, and it made for a quick, easy breakfast before work. Plus, it makes your house smell delicious when baking, like a warm apple cinnamon candle. Thank you, Brittany!
Ahh yay!! So glad you love this recipe, Lauren. Thank so much for coming back to leave a review. I SO appreciate it!!
Just made this and it turned out so good!! Love it!
Just like apple pie. I added some cloves and it tastes so warm and cozy
One of my absolute favorite recipes! Love it for special mornings when family is visiting, but also any morning! Love having leftovers but usually we gobble it all up as soon as it’s baked!
Yay!! So glad you’ve been loving this recipe, Crystal. Thanks for the review. I so appreciate it!
Absolutely delicious! My son and I are currently tucking into this for breakfast and it’s safe to say I will definitely be making this again!
Yay!! So glad it was a hit! Thanks for the review. Laura. I appreciate it.
This recipe is really good and I feel like it’s a healthy breakfast choice for me and my kiddos. I grated the apple due to my toddler’s texture preferences. Still yum. Something about the comfort of apple cinnamon on a winter day!
So glad you loved this recipe, Amanda. Thanks for coming back to leave a review. I so appreciate it!

So easy and so delicious! My family loved it!
So glad this recipe was a hit with your fam, Felecia! Thanks for the review. I so appreciate it!
Such a good option for meal prep and apple cinnamon is always a winning combo. I’m generally pretty loyal to the maple pecan baked oatmeal, but I gave this recipe a try to use up an apple I found in the back of my produce drawer. So good!
The whole family (myself, husband, and 1 year old) loved this dish! I like that it makes enough to last us a few mornings. I’m excited to try making the other varieties in the future.
Modifications: I used about 4 Tbsp up of coconut cream and then used 1 and 1/2 cups skim milk. I also used less maple syrup and subbed in some brown sugar.
We ate this warm with almond butter on top.
Woo! So glad this recipe was a hit with your whole fam. Thanks so much for making it and for coming back to leave a review. I so appreciate it. 🙂
Hi, just wondering what I could use instead of almond milk? I’ve only got full cream milk or water at home. Thank you.
You can use your favorite milk (dairy or non-dairy!).
This recipe is soooo good! I’m 21 weeks pregnant, and for whatever reason, I’ve been craving fall foods in the springtime, so this hit the spot! This is my favorite thing to eat as a snack when I get home from work in the afternoons. Thanks for
So glad you loved this recipe, Bella!! Thanks for making it and for the review. I so appreciate it!

So so super yummy! Made a vegan version for my sister-in-law…and as a non-vegan, this recipe was A++!
Have you ever cooked them in individual muffin tins? Curious if the time/temp would be the same.
Yes! I have a whole post about making baked oatmeal cups as well as apple cinnamon baked oatmeal cups recipe.
I’ve now tried all baked oatmeal flavors of yours and this cinnamon apple is our absolute fave!! I added sliced almonds and dried cranberries (didn’t have raisins) and it was AMAZING. And I used oat milk instead of almond milk with this one, just for kicks. This will become a regular occurrence at my house. Thanks!
Woo!! I love hearing this! So glad this oatmeal has been such a success for you and your family, Steph! Thanks so much for the review. I really appreciate it!
Can I substitute an egg for the ground flaxseed?
Totally!
So good!! I’ve made twice 8n the last week because my husband keeps requesting it. I’ve subbed craisins for raisins since that’s what we’ve had on hand. I also love how quickly this comes together! One of the best baked oatmeal recipes I’ve had!
Yay!! So happy to hear this oatmeal has been a hit, Crystal! Thanks so much for trying it out coming back to leave a review. I really appreciate it!
So good and easy!
Yay! So happy to hear you enjoyed this recipe, Amanda. Thanks for the review!
I’ve made so many of your baked oatmeals… but this apple cinnamon is my absolute favorite!! I drizzle a little maple syrup on it and heat it up… sooooo good! Doesn’t taste healthy at all!
I’m so happy to hear that, Stephanie! Love when things taste like a treat but are still healthy! Thanks for the review, I appreciate it 🙂
I absolutely love this recipe. My toddler is an incredibly picky eater, but she just cleaned an entire plate of this baked oatmeal. I also love that it’s made with healthy ingredients. I didn’t have unsweetened applesauce on hand so I subbed one mashed banana and it still turned out great!
Yay! So happy to hear this recipe was a hit for your family, Sara! Thank you so much for coming back to leave a review, I really appreciate it!
I make this every few weeks! It’s amazing to have to divide up for breakfast each morning – great Sunday meal prep idea! I love it warmed in the microwave with some milk!
Woo! Love that this recipe is on repeat for you, Allison! Thanks so much for sharing your review, I appreciate it so much.
Made this as soon as I saw the EBF August challenge! This is one of my go to recipes along with the Strawberry Banana chocolate chip baked oatmeal!

Woo! So pumped to hear that you loved this baked oatmeal, Susan. Thanks for making it and for coming back to leave a review. It means the world to me!
my son and I made this recipe together. Super easy to make with “normal” ingredients, which is why I love eatingbirdfood recipes and have for years!!
The only thing we changed about the recipe was eliminating the coconut oil and adding a little bit more of applesauce.
it turned out perfect and we absolutely loved it!!! it tastes amazing slightly warm with a little bit of maple syrup on the top.
YAY! So pumped to hear that this baked oatmeal was a hit! Thanks for making it and for coming back to leave a review, Rachel. I so appreciate it.

Woo! So pumped to hear that you love this recipe, Deb. Thanks for making it and for coming back to leave a review. I really appreciate it!
I just made this for the first time and I can’t get it to set up except around the edges. It’s been baking for well over an hour and I tried lowering the temp so it could maybe get done in the center as it cooks longer but it’s still an oatmeal consistency. I followed the recipe to a T. The pictures look like it’s supposed to be more firm than this?
Oh no! So sorry to hear that you had trouble with this recipe. It should be firm where you can cut it, but still soft. How long did you end up baking it for? And are you in located in high elevation? Just trying to figure out what might have happened since you said you didn’t change anything about the recipe.
Just made this recipe for the first time. I added a drizzle of peanut butter when plating which was delicious! Now I have breakfast for the rest of the week. 😀
Oh yay! So glad you enjoyed this recipe, Jess. Thanks for making it and for coming back to leave a review. I so appreciate it!
Had to make this again ! My before and after and my house smells so good .. this is a must make recipe .
So glad this recipe was a hit!! Thanks for making it and for the review, Linda. I so appreciate it!
I just made this for the first time and it’s absolutely delicious! I doubled it to freeze into easy breakfasts for school and honestly, it might not make it to the freezer! Thanks for another great one!
Yay!! So glad you loved this baked oatmeal, Deb. Thanks for making it and for leaving a review. I so appreciate it.
Simple and delish! My kind of breakfast meal prep 😁. I added chia seeds and chopped walnuts cuz apples just need walnuts. Love this cold with Greek yogurt, honey and more cinnamon.
So glad you loved this recipe, Rose. Thanks for making it and for the review. I appreciate it!
These baked oats made such a great prep-ahead breakfast for busy mornings which is especially helpful with school starting up. They also made a great less-processed afternoon snack alternative to granola bars.
Ah yay! I am so happy that you are enjoying this recipe, Bailey. They are such a great alternative and the perfect on-the-go breakfast. Thank you for your review + star rating, I really appreciate it!
I’ve been making this recipe for a while now and I love it! I feel like I normally have it put together by the time the oven is done preheating. My kids enjoy it too. As a full time working mom, this dish is great to prep so I have a quick breakfast option during the week!

This baked oatmeal is soooo good! I replaced the vegetal milk by 1% milk, flax seeds by chia and vanilla extract by rum extract (yum!) the result was really delicious 🙂 The raisins bring a little sweetness, the apples weren’t overcooked and the cinnamon was on point! 🙂 Thanks again for your fantastic recipes
So glad you enjoyed this baked oatmeal, Emilie. Thanks for coming back to leave a review. I so appreciate it!

I loved this baked oatmeal recipe! I swapped out flax seeds for chia because that’s what I had, and I also swapped chocolate chips for raisins because I have such a sweet tooth! Love love love! Will have to try raisins in my next batch 🙂

Woo! So glad you loved you loved this recipe, Alison. Thanks for making it and for coming back to leave a review. I so appreciate it!
Hi,
Have you ever tried quick-cook steel cut oats would work in a baked oatmeal recipe? Thank you!
Should have made more… only made a half batch. Had no idea I’d be eating it for breakfast and dessert! Didn’t have flaxseed so added an egg white and some chia seeds. Also don’t like raisins so doubled the apples – Amazing!
Ah yay! I am so happy to hear that you are loving this recipe, Vicki. Thank you so much for sharing your review + star rating, it means so much to me!

Ah yay! I am so glad this recipe turned out great and that you are enjoying it, Lois. Thank you for coming back and sharing your review + star rating, I really appreciate it!
Absolutely fantastic! I baked this in a 10” cast iron (didn’t have an 8×8 pan) and it turned out wonderfully (baked about 5 minutes longer). I used mashed banana instead of applesauce, and I used walnuts instead of raisins. Will definitely be making again – thank you!
OH YUM! This sounds delicious, Issa. Thank you so much for sharing your review & star rating, I really appreciate it!
So yummy! I tried many of the ebf baked oatmeal varieties but went with this one because I already had all the ingredients in my pantry. So easy and delicious! What flavor should I try this week…..hmmmm

Hi Andrea – I am so glad you are loving my recipes. Did you change anything about this recipe? What type of oats did you use?
Delicious recipe. I love that it’s not too sweet and also vegan. Much needed healthy way to have a dessert after all the holiday richness. Made it as is with chopped walnuts added. Perfection!
YUM! Sounds delicious, Sheila. Glad you gave this recipe a try and are loving it. Thank you for sharing your review & star rating, I truly appreciate it.
Oh my gosh this recipe is A+++!!
So happy to have this made ahead for the week now! I added a 1/2scoop of protein powder per serving too for some added protein. 👌🏻
Is there a simple way to substitute the milk for cows milk and figure out the nutrition info.. or do I have to go through each item and redo it totally? 🤪 haha just curious! I’m counting macros that’s why I am asking! ❤️
Hi Kendall – That sounds amazing! SO glad you are loving this oatmeal and it turns out great for you! To figure out the nutrition info with your substitutions, I would import into my fitness pal and just adjust the milk and add the protein powder, that should give you the correct info. Hope that helps. Thanks for your review + star rating, I truly appreciate it!
Love, love, love this apple baked oatmeal. I eat the oatmeal every morning to help control my cholesterol . I also want to eat ground flax seed to help lower my LDL. From what I read, most say you should eat 1-2 tablespoons per day. I want all of that to be in my oatmeal. I add 12 tablespoons, 2T per serving, of flax seed instead of just the 2 tablespoons for the whole recipe. I add an extra cup of almond milk because all that flax soaks up the liquid. This helps me start my day in a very good way. I hope this helps someone else that struggles with high cholesterol like I do. This is so delicious! Many thanks for all your great recipes.
WOO! This makes me so happy to hear, Linda. Glad you are loving this baked oatmeal recipe and it turned out amazing for you. Thanks so much coming back and sharing your review + star rating, I truly appreciate it!
