Notes
- This fits in either a 12" cast iron skillet or a 9x13 baking dish.
- Consider adding pumpkin or persimmon puree to make this breakfast stretch even further.
- Choose firm, crispy apples like Honeycrisp, Granny Smith, or Gala for the best results.
- Remember, the liquid is key to a moist, even baked consistency. I've made it too runny and too dry before, but these measurements get it just right!
- Let your oatmeal bake cool for at least 10-15 minutes before cutting and serving. This allows the mixture to set and the flavors and texture to meld together.
- This recipe keeps quite well in the fridge and honestly, the flavor is enhanced after a day or two.
