Baked Oatmeal

This recipe is a local Amish recipe and it usually ends up on our farm fresh breakfast table when we host guests. --Mark

Ingredients:

3 cups oats
½ to ¾ cup brown sugar
3 tsp. cinnamon
2 tsp. baking powder
1 tsp. salt
1 cup milk
2 eggs
½ cup melted butter
2 tsp. vanilla extract
¾ cups berries and nuts

Instructions:

Mix the dry ingredients in a bowl. In a separate bowl mix milk, eggs, butter, and vanilla. Combine the two mixtures when ready. Add in berries and nuts. Pour into a 9x13 pan and bake at 350 ˚F for 40 minutes. Serve as is or with milk poured over it.

Notes:

You can substitute applesauce for the butter to reduce the fat and calories. It gives it a nice apple-cinnamon flavor as well.
