Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C) and butter a 9x9-inch baking dish.
  2. Mix the oats, cinnamon, baking powder, and walnuts in a bowl.
  3. In another bowl, whisk the eggs, milk, maple syrup, and melted butter.
  4. Fold in most of the diced apple, then spread the mixture into the dish and scatter the remaining apple on top.
  5. Bake 35 minutes until set and golden. Cool slightly before slicing into squares.
  6. Refrigerate up to 5 days; reheat portions in the microwave or oven.

Tips

  • A tart apple like Granny Smith holds its shape and balances the sweetness.
