Ingredients
  

2 cups rolled oats

2 cups unsweetened almond milk (or any milk of choice)

2 large apples, peeled and diced (Granny Smith or Honeycrisp works well)

1/4 cup maple syrup (or honey)

1 tsp vanilla extract

1 tsp ground cinnamon

1/2 tsp nutmeg

1/2 tsp baking powder

1/2 cup chopped walnuts or pecans (optional)

1/4 cup raisins or dried cranberries (optional)

Pinch of salt

Fresh apple slices and additional nuts for topping (optional)

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease a 9x9-inch baking dish or a similar-sized oven-safe dish.

    Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the rolled oats, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt. Stir until well mixed.

      Add Wet Ingredients: In another bowl, whisk together the almond milk, maple syrup, and vanilla extract. Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl with the dry ingredients and mix until just combined.

        Incorporate Apples: Fold in the diced apples, nuts (if using), and raisins or dried cranberries.

          Transfer to Baking Dish: Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it evenly. Use a spatula to press the mixture down gently.

            Top and Bake: If desired, arrange fresh apple slices and any remaining nuts on top for decoration. Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the oats are set.

              Cool and Serve: Allow the bake to cool for about 10 minutes before slicing. Serve warm, drizzled with a little extra maple syrup if desired.
