No offence to any of you who actually like oatmeal the normal way, but me personally...I have a weird emotion to Mush's texture. If any of you have seen, "Little House on the Prairie" I feel the same way Albert does on the episode "Winoka Warriors" ( I think it's that one)...ok anyway I'm rabbit trailing. Mom made this really good baked oatmeal and I'd thought I'd share it with you...so here you go.
Yum Vs. Mush- and Yum wins by a mile as Mush lags behind in it's mushyness.
---Yum's secret to it's powers---
3 cups quick cooking oats (we used regular rolled oats and they worked fine)
¾ cup sugar (we used Sucre de canne naturel (a.k.a sucanat)...and it turned out great!)
1 cup milk
⅓ cup melted butter
2 eggs
2 tsp baking powder
¾ tsp salt
1 tsp vanilla extract
Preheat oven to 350° F. Combine all ingredients in mixing bowl and mix well. Spread batter into a greased 9 x 13 pan and bake for 25-30 minutes until golden brown.
Variations: Add 1 cup of chopped apples or other fruits or nuts. This is really good with a little milk poured over the top. You can also add additional toppings after baking as well. Do with as you please! :)
This beats regular oatmeal any day...as I'm sure that I'm lamented.
p.s. and no I don't call it "sucre de canne naturel"...I call it sucanat..I was just being mysterious...don't hold it against me. :)
Hope you all have a great week filled with awesomeness!!

Sounds yummy Keni!!
ReplyDeleteAnd I totally agree with you, oatmeal/mush was never one of my favorites. We used to have it EVERY Monday for breakfast. Needless to say, I had a little more sympathy for Garfield after that.
Miss ya,
