Test...test...is this thing on?
Hello! Central Pennsylvania here. So, ladies, my current and continuing obsession is how to have good, healthy food to eat at all times, without cooking at all times. I've noticed multiple breakfast/lunch places here serve baked oatmeal as part of their morning menu. But rather than spending $4 a day to buy it, I went in search of a recipe for myself. Here's what I found - it's a good base to add nuts, dried or fresh fruit, and (maybe if I'm feeling decadent) cream. There are even some that add fruit juice to the mix. I'd cut the sugar big time if I was adding the juice, though...
PREPARATION:
Preheat oven to 375 degrees Farenheit.
Mix all ingredients together and pour into 13 x 9 inch buttered pan.
Bake at 375 degrees for 25 minutes.
Mmmm, tasty. I can make it on Sunday night, then cut out a chunk and take it with me to work in the mornings during the week. I'm also planning on bringing my french press to chambers, so I'm going to be set up quite well as far as breakfast goes.
- 3 cups oatmeal
- 3/4 cup brown sugar
- 1/2 cup margarine
- 2 eggs
- 2 cups milk

Nice first real post there.
Butter questions: Melted? Chopped into little pieces?
I am not one to deny myself the butter, but as we're talking healthy here, here's an idea: I know you can do a 1:1 replacement for oil w/ applesauce in brownies. I wonder if you could do that in the delicious-sounding baked oatmeal?
Not sure on the melted vs. chopped up butter...I'm going to try this recipe this weekend (hopefully), so I'll pick a mechanism and let you know. I think the applesauce replacement would be AMAZING in this! Great call.
