Baked Oatmeal - Recipe

I tried baked oatmeal for the first time! It was awesome. Oatmeal is something I usually tolerate, but this stuff was really good.

2 c old fashioned or rolled oats
1/3 c brown sugar
1 tsp baking powder
2 tsp cinnamon
1 large egg
2 tbs canola oil
1 1/2 c skim milk
1/2 c unsweetened applesauce

1. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees.

2. In a medium bowl, mix the oats, brown sugar, baking powder and cinnamon. Set aside. In another bowl, mix the remaining ingredients. Pour the oat mixture into the liquid and stir.

3. Pour mixture into an 8x8 pan that has been sprayed with non-stick spray. Bake for 20-30 minutes.

4. Serve warm with chopped apples, nuts, raisins, etc.

Makes 6 servings.

I didn't run the numbers for it (though it's about 6 points+) but it gives one serving of healthy oil and a quarter dairy serving. I can see myself overeating this, that's how good it is.

I used whole eggs and got, per serving: 127 calories, 2.67 g fat, 20 g carbs (3.17 g fiber), 6.25 g protein. 2 WW points/Core friendly.


I ate half a square when they came out of the oven and cooled just a bit. They are really good, not too sweet. Very moist.
