This yummy dish shows up on my menu plans quite often. It's easy to prepare the night before and have refrigerated to bake the next morning. This makes 3 breakfasts for the two of us. Not bad!
My mom made this for us growing up. Now it's one of my husband's favorites! It's good warm out of the oven or cold the next day. We eat it like cereal with milk.
Baked Oatmeal
Ingredients:
3 cups quick-cooking oats
1 cup brown sugar or 1/2 cup honey
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 1/2 teaspoons cinnamon
1 teaspoon salt
1 cup milk
2 eggs, beaten
1/2 cup melted butter or oil
Mix all ingredients. Pour into a 8 or 9-inch square pan. Bake at 350 degrees for 40-45 minutes. Serve with milk. Makes 4-6 servings.
For fun, add in some chocolate chips, blueberries,cranberries, dried fruit, nuts or coconut! Our favorite is walnut and cranberry(dried or frozen).

FishMama,
It's cake-like but heavier. Almost like a muffin.
I've never made baked oatmeal before, either. Sounds delicious! I'll be giving this a try soon! Thanks, Mary Ann :o)
Hey, Mary Ann! Just wanted to let you know I made your recipe today and it was DELICIOUS! I used honey to sweeten, plus I added a pinch of nutmeg and a cup of raisins. I can't wait until my husband returns from his deployment -- I just know he'll love it, too! Thanks! :o)
