I love serving my family a warm breakfast on a cold morning.  The last few mornings have been quite chilly here and I was in need of something other than a cold bowl of cereal to get my little ones up and out of bed.   I love apples and since it’s apple season, I have been cooking and baking with apples on a daily basis.  Many of the apples my family and I picked at the apple farm earlier this fall have gone into wonderful, comforting desserts like Apple Pie and Old Fashioned Apple Crisp.  Ending a cool evening with a warm apple dessert is great, but sometimes I like to start my day with apples too!

Mixing Ingredients for Spice Apple Baked Oatmeal

This Spiced Apple Baked Oatmeal tastes and smells like your favorite Autumn apple desserts.  Applesauce, freshly chopped apple, cinnamon and nutmeg are baked with old fashioned oats to make a cozy fall breakfast.  Your kitchen will smell delicious as this oatmeal bakes in the oven while your family is getting up and ready for the day.  To save time in the morning, this can be made the night before and then pulled out of the refrigerator when you first wake up and baked as usual.  This oatmeal freezes very well, so doubling this recipe works out very well if you are stocking your freezer.
