I had no idea this tasted this good until I had it at my daughter's. It's one of those comfort foods that I could have for breakfast or for dessert. This can be prepared the night before; refrigerated and baked in the morning.
Ingredients:
- 3 1/2 cups oats or quick oats (not instant)
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 1/2 cup coconut (optional)
- 1/4 cup oil
- 2 eggs
- 1 apple, grated
- 1 cup milk
- Mix ingredients in order given and pour into greased 8x8 inch pan.
- Bake at 350° F for about 30 minutes
- Serve warm with milk and brown sugar (optional).
It's a piece of cake to wrap up for breakfast on the go, or lunch.
This looks super yummy - I shared the link with my friends on FB :)
ReplyDeletequick oats or regular or does it make any difference ? This would be great for backpacking and hiking !
ReplyDeleteI used to make a coffee cake every Sunday morning, but have switched to baked oatmeal. Yummy! I always nibble on the leftovers after church, too! :) I've used quick oats or regular, and add whatever I might have on hand -- almonds, coconut, raisons, ... It's always good.
ReplyDeleteBeautifully photographed. Sounds and looks really good. I'm thinking maybe heavy cream in place of milk. :)
ReplyDeleteCan one use apple sauce instead of grating an apple? How much? Looks yummy!
ReplyDeletewhat a cool idea, I have yet to try baked oatmeal but I think you have me convinced.
ReplyDeleteI like the possibility to prepare it in advance, thanks as always, hugs, Flavia
ReplyDeleteAlso really good with some maple syrup drizzled over the top.
ReplyDeleteMy son in law introduced our family to baked oatmeal. It's wonderful. The kind he makes doesn't have apples but does include lots of raisins.
ReplyDeleteI'm seeing this as the breakfast of champions, for our next day on the boat! Really nice...thank you.

I love it with fresh fruit and yogurt on top!
ReplyDeleteHi Anneliese:)
ReplyDeleteWhat is the differents with quick cooking oats, or regular one would that be rolled oats ? I couldn't find rolled oats in my safeway here(wpg.)
anyway have a great day:):)
Looks delicious! And easy to make!
ReplyDeleteIt sounds awesome. I'm definitely making this.
ReplyDeleteRolled (may be referred to long cooking) and quick oats require some cooking time to prepare. Instant oats are prepared by usually microwaving water to the boil then adding the oats, stirring a bit and serving. There is no real "cooking" time. That recipe looks like a 'must try':-) Thanks for posting!
ReplyDeleteBaked oatmeal is out "Sunday morning special". I make it and let it bake while I am getting ready for church. Then once, it is ready, we each help ourselves, as we become ready. We make ours with chocolate chips instead of the apple and coconut. I have also made it with Saskatoon berries. I have also made this for big groups, such as school camp breakfast. They ALL loved it! But in our family we have to serve it with warm milk poured over top.
ReplyDeleteDoes anyone know the food values of this for people who are on a specific food regimen? It sure would help to know the carbs and etc.....
ReplyDeleteI just made this and had it for breakfast today. I put it in a bowl, added a little milk and heated it in the microwave for about 30 seconds and then added a little brown sugar on the top - DELICIOUS!! I will be keeping it in my freezer in individual servings at all times.
ReplyDeleteSounds Good. I am going to make it tomorrow.
ReplyDeleteThis recipe was delicious!
ReplyDeleteI made it for breakfast today and I wrote a blog post about it. Of course I linked back to this post for directions :)
Have a lovely day!

I've been looking for a tasty way to incoporate old fashion oats into our everyday life, but the family has huge issues with boiled oatmeal of any kind. Thanks for this fantastic looking recipe, definitely going to be trying soon. :)
ReplyDeleteIf you want a nutritional analysis of this or any recipe, try this website. You can cut and paste the recipe in, mark the number of servings (6 or 8) and hit analyze. It's a great help. http://caloriecount.about.com/cc/recipe_analysis.php
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for this recipe!! I've wanted to like oatmeal for it's nutritional value and it's "staying power" but I could never get past the texture.
ReplyDeleteWell, I just took this out of the oven and I'm in heaven! I poured a little milk over it and sprinkled some maple flakes on top- wonderful!!
Thanks again- you've made my day :)
You've made mine too!
DeleteI am going to try this. I make a baked oatmeal (steel cut)from at site called the Nourished Kitchen. Soaking the oats overnight shortens the cooking time. I like the addition of coconut and apples in your recipe.
ReplyDeleteI made this today,I served it with home made maple syrup and my whole family loved it, thanks! for sharing the recipe.
ReplyDeleteOK so is this 3.5 cups of oats??
ReplyDeletemy daughter tried baked oatmeal for the 1st time in Christian camp this past summer & she loved it!!! I'm going to start making it now! :)
ReplyDeleteI'm making this sans coconut for a seniors centre cook-a-thon next week. :)
ReplyDeleteSharon
They will love it!
