Baked oatmeal is eaten as a breakfast in its less-sweet variation or a snack. Although still being a breakfast food, the first variation presented here may taste more like a dessert to some.
Ingredients
- 3 cups (720 g) quick-cooking oats
- 1 cup (240 g) brown sugar
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup (240 ml) milk
- ½ cup (120 g) butter (melted)
- 2 eggs
Procedure
- Mix the ingredients and pour them into a 9-inch (20 cm) baking pan. They can also be carefully mixed in the pan.
- Bake at 350 °F (175 °C) for 40–45 minutes.
- Serve hot, cold, with or without milk.
Notes, tips, and variations
- For another variation, add ½ cup (120 g) wheat flakes, ½ cup (120 g) granulated sugar plus 1 tablespoon molasses instead of brown sugar, 1 ½ cups (360 ml) soy milk instead of dairy milk, ½ cup (120 ml) vegetable oil instead of butter, and a third egg.
