My sweet Cameron loves oatmeal for breakfast in all forms. This is a recipe I have been making since 2003. My kids love it. I love that it has 7 grams of protein, 48.8g carbohydrates (not a favorite for carb watchers), and has 3.4 g fiber per serving. Serving this to my children makes me feel like I am giving them something that it will stay with them unlike cold cereal when I send them off to school . It is good in the winter as a warm welcome on a cold morning to start of the day. It can be made ahead, covered in the fridge, and simply reheat as needed throughout the week. Mine never last longer than one day; two if I am lucky!
BAKED OATMEAL
Preheat oven to 375.
Spray your 9 x 13 baking dish with cooking spray and set aside.
Combine in a medium bowl.
4 cups uncooked quick-cooking oats
3/4 -1 cup packed brown sugar
1/3 cup raisins (optional)
2 Tablespoon pecans
3 cups milk
Combine in a separate bowl
1/2 cup applesauce
2 Tablespoons butter, melted
1 large egg, beaten
cooking spray
Add the milk mixture to the oat mixture; stir well. Pour oat mixture into prepared baking dish. Bake at 375 for 30 minutes or until the edges are slightly brown and the center of the oatmeal looks set.
Yields 10 servings (serving size 2/3 cups)
*If you half the recipe use a 8 x 8 pan.
