Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350ºF.
  • First, prepare the apples. Heat the coconut oil in a large, 12-inch oven-safe skillet or enamel pan over medium/high heat. When the coconut oil is melted, add the apples and let them cook for 1-2 minutes, stirring periodically.
  • Add the maple syrup and cinnamon to the apples and toss to coat. Cook for an additional 3-4 minutes or until the apples begin to brown. Remove from the heat and set aside.
  • Add all of the wet ingredients to a bowl and whisk until combined. Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and mix.
    A mixing bowl containing oats, flour, baking powder, cinnamon, and a liquid ingredient with a spatula resting on the side.
  • Spread the apples over the bottom of the skillet and pour the oat mixture over the apples. Be sure the oat mixture is spread evenly over the apples. Bake the oatmeal for 20 minutes and remove from the oven.

Notes

  • What pan is used will determine the bake time. Enamel cast-iron pans run hotter than other pans. Be sure to check for doneness at 15 minutes to see if it is fully baked when using an enamel pan.
