I know pumpkin season is here, but we still have plenty of apples in our kitchen! What better way to use up those apples than in a delicious fall breakfast recipe? Apple Pecan Baked Oatmeal is one of our favorite breakfasts.
Oats are a staple in our pantry that we buy in bulk from our food co-op. We usually have regular oatmeal and baked oatmeal at least once a week, so we’re always on the lookout for new ways to use up our oats.
Apple Pecan Baked Oatmeal
This recipe is a delicious twist on plain baked oatmeal, with a cinnamon/apple/pecan flavor. It’s a big hit at our house! We even like to eat leftovers for a snack (if we ever happen to have any left!).

October 4, 2018 at 10:02 amWould this be a crossover for a THM meal as it has oil and nuts along with the oats?
Joy Kincaid says
October 4, 2018 at 3:41 pmYes, this recipe would likely be a crossover, and it would also need an alternative sweetener to make it THM-friendly. When I’m doing THM I make this for my children and then make something more on-plan (like regular oatmeal) for myself.

October 11, 2016 at 1:50 pmOh, I’m so trying this. I make Baked Oatmeal almost every Sunday Morning – for breakfast!! Especially, in the fall and winter.
This sounds amazing. One recent time of making baked oatmeal – I chunked fresh peaches on top and that was a real hit… often I’ll just throw on frozen blueberries (right on top) – which are amazing, too!!
Joy Kincaid says
October 11, 2016 at 3:20 pmHope you enjoy it, Bevy! The blueberries and peaches both sound delicious also!
