Zubereitung

1. 1

   Preheat oven 375 F. Grease 8×8 inch baking dish.

2. 2

   For the apples: Chop into dice sized pieces or thinly slice them lengthwise. I like to do a combination of both for different textures. Heat a pan over medium and add coconut oil. Once melted, stir in the apples, nuts and apple pie spice and sauté for 2-3 minutes or until apples have softened. Stir in the maple syrup and cook for another 45 seconds – 1 minute. Remove from heat and set aside.

3. 3

   For the baked oats: Add all the wet ingredients into the prepared baking dish and whisk together until smooth. Then add in the oats, baking powder, apple pie spice and salt. Stir in the apple mixture. Bake for 50-55 minutes or until the top is golden brown and there is no more liquid on the surface.

   Plate, drizzle with maple cream, add any additional toppings and enjoy!
