Baked Apple Steel Cut Oats

Yum
A couple of weeks ago I tried baked steel cut oats. They were so good and they made great leftovers, too. My first batch was pumpkin oats, and right away I knew I wanted to make these again with apple. They were just as delicious as the pumpkin was. These baked oats are my new favorite fall breakfast.

Baked Apple Steel Cut Oats

Ingredients:

1 tsp vegan margarine
1 1/2 cups steel cut oats

Pinch of salt
1 cup diced apple
1/3 cup maple syrup
1 tsp cinnamon
2 cups soy milk
2 1/2 cups water
1 tsp vanilla

Directions:

Pre-heat your oven to 375 degrees. Spray a 2 quart casserole dish with cooking spray and set aside.

Heat the margarine in a medium sized saucepan oven medium heat, and once it is melted add the steel cut oats. Toast the oats in the margarine until they begin to smell fragrant.

Next, add all of the remaining ingredients (salt, apple, maple syrup, cinnamon, soy milk, water, and vanilla), and bring it to a boil. Let it boil for 5-7 minutes over low heat, while stirring continuously to break up any clumps and keep it from sticking.

Pour the oat mixture into the prepared casserole dish and cover with a lid or with foil. Bake for 35 minutes. Let cool and enjoy!

For 8 servings. Nutritional information from caloriecount.about.com.
