Baked Oatmeal

Oh. My. Yummy. This is the best oatmeal I've ever had! It's more like a thick cookie than oatmeal, but still pretty healthy...so why complain? Everyone should try this asap. Like now. Shoo.

Baked Oatmeal
Serves 8
3 cups oats (not quick-cooking)
3/4 cup brown sugar1 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons cinnamon
2 teaspoons baking powder
3/4 cup Craisins (or other dried fruit)
1 cup milk
1/2 cup butter, melted (you can substitute applesauce for 1/4 c. of the butter if you want)
2 teaspoons vanilla
2 eggs

Preheat oven to 350. In a large bowl, combine the oats, brown sugar, cinnamon, baking powder, salt, and Craisins. In a smaller bowl, mis together the milk, butter, vanilla, and eggs. Add the liquid mixture to the dry mixture and whisk to combine. Pour into a deep 9″ pie plate or an 8×8″ or 9×9″ baking dish. Bake for 40 minutes or until the top is golden brown. Serve immediately with a splash of warmed milk.
