  • 1 tsp salt $0.05

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Preheat the oven to 375ºF. Core and dice the apples.
  2. Place the diced apples in the bottom of a 9x9-inch (or 2 qt.) casserole dish. Add the lemon juice, brown sugar, cornstarch, cinnamon, and cloves. Stir until the apples are coated in sugar and spices.
  3. Cover the dish with foil and bake for 15 minutes.
  4. While the apples are baking, prepare the baked oatmeal mixture. In a large bowl, whisk together the applesauce, brown sugar, eggs, vanilla, salt, baking powder, and cinnamon. Then add the milk and whisk to combine again.
  5. Finally, stir the dry oats into the applesauce mixture and stir until fully combined.
  6. After the apples come out of the oven, give them a good stir, then pour the oat mixture over top. Return the dish to the oven (uncovered) and bake for an additional 30 minutes.
  7. After baking for 30 more minutes the oats should be golden brown on top and you may see some of the apple cinnamon layer bubbling up around the edges. Let the oats cool for about five minutes before serving.

Notes

  • *I use whole milk but you can use any type of milk, including non-dairy varieties.
