Baked Oatmeal

By Zopmama

We first had this recipe at the Black Rock Retreat Center in Lancaster, PA. My mother modified the recipe to add more dried fruit, nuts, and spices.
Delicious on a cold winter day.

Ingredients

• 6 cups quick cooking oats
• 2 cups packed brown sugar
• 4 t. baking powder
• 2 t. ground cinnamon
• 1 t. nutmeg
• 1 t. salt
• 2 cup milk
• 1 t. vanilla
• 1 cup butter, melted
• 4 eggs beaten
• 1 1/2 - 2 cups various dried fruits and nuts like raisins, craisins, pecans, apricots, dried apples

Preparation

Step 1

Mix all dry ingredients, add wet ingredients, then fruits and nuts. Pour into a greased 9 X 13-inch cake pan.
Bake at 350 degrees for 40-45 minutes.

Leftovers: Let cool completely, cut into single serving portions. Wrap in plastic wrap and freeze. For a quick breakfast another day just heat single serving portion with a little milk in microwave for 1-2 minutes.
