What's Cooking Sunday: Baked Oatmeal

Who doesn't love breakfast? And who wouldn't want it made ahead, freezable, and reheatable, too? That's what you'll get with this delicious and easy oatmeal recipe.



Baked Oatmeal

Serves 10
Preheat oven to 350 degrees

5 C rolled oats
4 eggs (or 1 C egg substitute to reduce calories)
1/2 C canola oil
1/2 C unsweetened applesauce
3/4 C sugar (or Splenda)
2 C skim milk
1 T baking powder
1 tsp cinnamon
1 tsp salk
1 large apple, chopped with skins left on
1 C raisins

Put ingredients in a large mixing bowl and mix well. Pour into sprayed 9 x 13 inch baking dish and bake for 40 minutes.



Great warm or cold, drizzled with milk (fat free half and half is even better!)

That looks yum...I'd try it with a scoop of vanilla ice cream on top...yummy!

I'm not a big breakfast person unless it is leftovers from the night before...

BUT this looks like something my kids would like warmed with Ice Cream on top...I'll use fat free to keep it healthy!!
