Ingredients
  

2 cups rolled oats

1/2 cup brown sugar, packed

1 tsp baking powder

1 tsp ground cinnamon

1/2 tsp salt

2 cups milk (dairy or non-dairy)

1/4 cup applesauce (unsweetened)

2 large eggs

1 tsp vanilla extract

1 cup raisins

1/2 cup chopped walnuts or pecans (optional)

1 tbsp olive oil or melted coconut oil

Instructions
 

Preheat oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease an 8x8 inch baking dish with olive oil or coconut oil.

    Mix dry ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, brown sugar, baking powder, ground cinnamon, and salt. Stir until evenly mixed.

      Combine wet ingredients: In another bowl, whisk together the milk, applesauce, eggs, and vanilla extract until well blended.

        Combine mixtures: Pour the wet mixture into the bowl with the dry ingredients. Stir until everything is well combined. Fold in the raisins and nuts, if using.

          Bake: Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish and spread it out evenly. Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the oatmeal is set and lightly golden on top.

            Cool and Serve: Once done, remove from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes. Cut into squares and serve warm. You can top it with fresh fruits, a drizzle of maple syrup, or a dollop of yogurt if desired.
