Ingredients

Scale

Dry Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup rolled oats (45g)
  • 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1/16 tsp salt

Wet Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup applesauce (60g) (or pumpkin, yogurt, or mashed banana)
  • 1/4 cup water (60g)
  • 1 1/2 tbsp pure maple syrup (22g) (or stevia to taste)
  • 1/4 tsp pure vanilla extract
  • 1 tbsp almond butter (15g) (or coconut oil, optional)

Optional Add-ins

  • 1 spoonful raisins (or chopped walnuts)

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375° Fahrenheit (190° Celsius). You can also use a microwave or preheated toaster oven if preferred.
  2. Prepare Baking Dish: Grease a one-cup ramekin, heat-safe dish, or mini loaf pan with oil or line the bottom with parchment paper to prevent sticking.
  3. Mix Dry Ingredients: Stir together all the dry ingredients — rolled oats, ground cinnamon, and salt — in a mixing bowl to evenly distribute flavors.
  4. Add Wet Ingredients: Whisk in the wet ingredients — applesauce, water, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and almond butter — to the dry mix to form a smooth batter. Incorporate optional raisins or walnuts if using.
  5. Bake: Spread the batter evenly into the prepared ramekin. Place on the center rack of the oven and bake for 15 minutes until set and slightly golden on top. For microwave cooking, heat on high for 1 to 3 minutes until the oatmeal is fluffy; timings will vary by appliance.
  6. Cool and Serve: Let the baked oatmeal cool slightly before serving. Optionally, top with your favorite frosting or additional toppings for a cinnamon roll experience.

Notes

  • You can substitute applesauce with pumpkin puree, yogurt, or mashed banana to change the flavor and texture.
  • Use maple syrup for natural sweetness or stevia for a low-calorie alternative.
  • Optional almond butter or coconut oil adds richness but can be omitted for a lighter meal.
  • Try adding raisins or chopped walnuts for extra texture and flavor.
  • Cooking times may vary depending on your oven or microwave wattage—watch closely.
