Many years ago I got this recipe from a friends blog but since then she has made it private so I can't attach the link. She altered the original recipe quite a bit since she found it way to sweet and wanted to make it even healthier. Not sure what the original recipe was like but I really enjoy this one! I make a batch, cut it into serving size pieces and freeze. When I want oatmeal, I simply put a piece in a bowl, pop it in the microwave with a bit of milk and in minutes a hot bowl of yummy breakfast is served.
Baked Oatmeal (serves 6ish)
3/4c unsweetened applesauce
1/3 c sugar
2 eggs
1c milk
1/2t salt
3t baking powder
3c oatmeal (I use old fashioned, but never use instant)
1c or more of add-ins (raisins, berries, chopped apples, mashed bananas, nuts, etc; whatever you please in whatever combinations)
Topping:
2T brown sugar mixed with 1/2t cinnamon
Preheat oven to 350*. Lightly grease square pan.
In a large mixing bowl, beat together the applesauce and sugar. Add eggs, salt, baking powder and oatmeal. Beat well and then mix in your add-ins. Pour into prepared pan and sprinkle with topping. Bake for 35min and enjoy with a splash of milk.
Trish, at what point do you add the oatmeal. I assume it is uncooked oatmeal?
ReplyDeleteLooks like an awesome blog. Thanks for sending the link!
Sorry about that. I made the correction and yes it's uncooked oatmeal.
