Default Re: Baked Oatmeal

My kids eat a cinnamon raisin one I make. I beat a bunch of eggs, like 6?, add in a little milk, a little bit of brown sugar and some cinnamon. Beat again. Then I mix in some oats and raisins until it will fill up a 9x13 casserole dish, sprinkle cinnamon on top and bake at 350 until done.... toothpick test. Let cool and cut into bars.

Default Re: Baked Oatmeal

from my mom
Quote:
Baked Oatmeal

2 eggs, beaten
1 C milk
1/2 C vegetable oil
1 C brown sugar
2 tsp baking powder
1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp ground cinnamon

Mix together thoroughly. Stir in 3 C quick oatmeal and 1/2 C raisins. Pour into a greased 8 X 12 baking dish. Bake at 350 for approximately 25-30 min. Serve warm with milk.


That is the recipe as published in my mennonite cookbook. How we actually make it is to sub applesauce for the oil, use only 2/3 C brown sugar, skip the salt, add a dash of nutmeg in with the first section of ingredients, and skip the raisins. So, adjust it to your liking and see how things go.
i like it without milk. you can add almost anything - fruit, nuts, etc. the other recipe she sent me is
Quote:
Peanut Butter Baked Oatmeal

3 cups quick cooking oats
1/2 cup brown sugar
1 cup milk
2 tablespoons butter, melted
2 eggs
2 teaspoons baking powder
3/4 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons vanilla
1/2 cup peanut butter
extra milk for serving

Mix all ingredients together and stir well. Spread in a greased 9×13 pan. Bake at 350 for 20-25 minutes. If you like it a little crunchy on top cook for a few minutes longer. Serve with warm milk poured over top. Enjoy!

(i used regular oats and it worked fine)
would also be good with a few mini chocolate chips mixed in.
also, you can make in muffin tins instead of the big pan, for individual and/or on-the-go servings.

I will have to try some this weekend. I know raisins are out, but chocolate chips would definitely make them appealing.

Default Re: Baked Oatmeal

Curious, too. I don't like the texture of oatmeal cooked the traditional way, but like it made into granola, or in cookies, or muffin, or whatever. Does everyone eat baked oatmeal with milk on top or can it be eaten just as-is? I like to have higher-protein breakfasts, so I like MomtoJGC's recipe with lots of eggs, but I also like the sounds of the PB one. Wonder if I could combine the two?

Default Re: Baked Oatmeal

its delish!! not at all like a cookie. its kinda more....like a cake (or thick brownie) with oats instead of flour, if that makes sense. its crumbly, esp once its cooled off, so some people like it warm with milk so its more like a hot&cold soft cereal; and its not goopy like regular oatmeal. http://www.cookingforseven.com/2011/...baked-oatmeal/ has a good pic of what it looks like in the bowl :drool

great, now imma have to go make some with PB and chocolate chips.

elena - my family doesn't like it with milk. its delish plain too!!

---------- Post added at 02:06 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:05 PM ----------

oh, and my mom has done ones with butterscotch chips, chunked apples, peaches, blueberries, strawberries, nuts, and etc - so you can usually find some sort of add-in your family will like.

  • <LI class=ingredient sizcache="43" sizset="73">4 cups quick oats<LI class=ingredient sizcache="43" sizset="78">2 eggs (beaten) <LI class=ingredient sizcache="43" sizset="83">1/4 cup oil <LI class=ingredient sizcache="43" sizset="88">1 cup vanilla-flavored soymilk <LI class=ingredient sizcache="43" sizset="93">1/4 cup brown sugar <LI class=ingredient sizcache="43" sizset="98">1/2 cup applesauce (or 1 mashed banana) <LI class=ingredient sizcache="43" sizset="103">1 teaspoon cinnamon <LI class=ingredient sizcache="43" sizset="108">1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract Change Measurements: US | Metric

1 Mix together oil, sugar and eggs.
  1. 2 Add rest of the ingredients and thoroughly mix together.
  2. 3 Bake at 350 degrees for 25 minutes in a greased glass 9 x 12 pan
