Miriam's Baked Oatmeal

[kazoogrrl]

I was thrilled when Miriam posted her baked oatmeal recipe in her blog (as a part of a series of overdue emails she was sending). This is seriously good stuff people. I did tweak the recipe for a version that has slightly less oil and sugar so it's "healthier". Hah

When you guys say quick oats, do you mean instant oatmeal? Think it would work the same with regular oatmeal, cook time wise?

[kazoogrrl]

I think instant would work, but not steel cut. The kind that takes 10 or so minutes to cook is what I used (quick rolled oats)

[yeimi]

Ah, those are what I use as well. I like the whole foods organic rolled oats. I try to avoid instant.

How different is it from regular oatmeal? Is it good because the top gets crispy? Sounds like it might be a good idea for a brunch.

It gets a little crispy on top, and you can cut and serve it and eat it like that or add warm milk. It is a great brunch food. Noralita called it a breakfast cookie.

This is seriously yummy- I think it's actually Jodi's recipe- that's who I got it from originally! Sometimes I throw different dried fruit in- cranberries or golden raisins, etc.
