Soaking overnight makes this the best oatmeal you've ever had! Created for the Ready Set Cook! Contest #10, the ingredients have been updated based on the reviewers' suggestions that it was too sweet, but feel free to increase the sugar and syrup to 1/2 cup each if you prefer a cake-like sweetness. This saves wonderfully in the refrigerator and can be cut in oatmeal-to-go pieces after chilling. Ingredients:
2 cups oatmeal (quick cooking or regular or steel cut) |
1 cup skim milk or 1 cup milk |
1/4 cup brown sugar |
1/4 cup maple syrup |
1/2 cup pecans, finely chopped (pecan chips) |
1/4 cup golden raisin |
2 eggs, beaten |
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder |
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg |
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon |
1/4 cup butterscotch chips (optional) |
Directions:
1. Dump all ingredients in an 8 x 8 casserole dish or pie pan; stir well; cover and put in the refrigerator overnight. 2. In the morning, preheat the oven to 425 degrees and bake for 25-30 minutes or until the top starts to brown; serve hot, with milk over it if desired. |
