Equipment

Method
 

For the Apple Layer
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease an 8x8-inch baking dish.
  2. Peel, core, and thinly slice 2 cups of Granny Smith or Honeycrisp apples into even wedges.
  3. In a bowl, gently toss apple slices with 1 teaspoon lemon juice, 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg, and a pinch of salt until evenly coated.
For the Oat Base
  1. Whisk together 1 cup rolled oats, 1 cup milk, 1 large egg, 2 tablespoons brown sugar, 1 teaspoon cinnamon, 1/2 teaspoon baking powder, and a pinch of salt.
  2. Spread half of the oat mixture into the prepared baking dish, arrange apple layer on top, then dollop remaining oats evenly over the apples.
  3. Bake for 30–35 minutes until the oatmeal is golden brown around the edges and the center is set but still slightly soft.
  4. Let the dish rest for 10 minutes before serving to firm up, then garnish with nuts, a drizzle of maple syrup, or a dollop of yogurt.
