Notes

This oatmeal can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
Don't skip the baking powder. This helps to keep the oatmeal light and without it it can become quite heavy and stodgy.
Any milk can be used to make this baked apple oatmeal. Use a plant-based milk like almond or oat for a vegan breakfast, or dairy for a creamier texture.
If you don't have maple syrup, honey can also be used to naturally sweeten the oatmeal.
