A delightful baked oatmeal recipe featuring cherries and almonds, perfect for a hearty breakfast.
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Preheating ensures even cooking and the right texture for the oatmeal.
Grease a 9x9-inch baking dish with cooking spray or butter.
Greasing the dish prevents sticking and makes cleanup easier.
In a mixing bowl, combine the oats, milk, brown sugar, dried cherries, and diced apple.
Ensure the ingredients are evenly mixed for consistent flavor.
Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish and spread it out evenly.
Leveling the mixture ensures even baking.
Sprinkle the sliced almonds evenly over the top.
Adding the almonds last gives a nice crunch to the dish.
Bake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, or until the top is golden and the oatmeal is set.
Check for doneness by inserting a toothpick; it should come out clean.
Let the baked oatmeal cool slightly before serving.
Serving warm enhances the flavors and makes it more comforting.
