Cook apples for 5-8 minutes, until they begin to soften. Stir regularly.
Set aside once cooked.
Step 2: Mix Oatmeal
In a large mixing bowl, stir together all dry ingredients.
3 cups rolled oats, ⅓ cup brown sugar, ¾ cup walnuts, 4 tablespoons hemp seeds, 3 tablespoons ground flaxseed, 2 teaspoons baking powder, 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon, ⅛ teaspoon ground nutmeg, pinch of salt
Stir in the wet ingredients until well combined.
2 cups plant-based milk, ½ cup apple sauce, 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
Step 3: Assemble and Bake
Grease a 9x13 pan (I use extra vegan butter/ margarine, but a non-stick spray could work as well).
Pour in the oatmeal mixture and spread into an even layer.
Top the oatmeal with partially cooked apples and lightly press or stir the apples into the oatmeal.
Bake in an oven preheated to 350 °F for 45 minutes.
Remove from the oven and cool for at least 15 minutes before serving. The oatmeal will slice best once fully cool.
