Baked Apple Oatmeal!

I woke up this morning and was greeted by the most perfect fall weather I could possibly think of! Bright blue skies with nice cool air, I figured it was the perfect Sunday to try out a new fall breakfast recipe, Baked Apple Oatmeal.


Check out this gorgeous bowl!

It was really easy to make. I chopped up a gala apple (I left the peel on but you can peel yours if you prefer), tossed it in a little cinnamon and popped it into the toasted oven to bake at 350 for about 12-15 minutes.  There was a little bit of bite left but it had mostly softened up and the whole house smelled like cinnamon.  I cooked my oats to my liking (I used 1/3 cup oats in 1 cup water with some cinnamon added at the end) then I added my baked apple on top.  My mom always put raisins and walnuts in our baked apples so I sprinkled some of each on top.  THIS. WAS. AMAZING. Fall in a bowl and so comforting. I enjoyed it with a mug of hot coffee.  Perfect lazy Sunday morning!

Hope you all had a wonderful Sunday! Stay tuned for more yummy eats and this week I'll post some home workouts I'm planning to start up soon!

    I love apple cinnamon oatmeal and this looks AMAZING. I also love your Vegan bowl. So cute! You've inspired me to soak some overnight oats tonight with apple chunks. So happy it's Fall.

    This really is perfect for fall! I was in the mountains over the weekend, and it would've been perfect there. It's back to the 80s down here, so I might have to bookmark the recipe! Yum!

    Thanks ladies, this is definitely a perfect fall dish! Nikki - I found the vegan bowl (technically mug) on Etsy at the Vegan Dish store. She has AMAZING products and I want to get a bunch more but they are a bit pricey. Eventually I'll build my collection!

    I used to love brown sugar on my hot cereal, but raisins work too. Beautiful breakfast.
