Baked Oatmeal - Amish style

Ingredients:
3 C. rolled oats
1 C. brown sugar
2 tsp. ground cinnamon
2 tsp. baking powder
1 tsp. salt
1 C. milk
2 eggs
1/2 C. melted butter
2 tsp. vanilla
3/4 C. dried cranberries

Directions:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a large bowl mix together oats, brown sugar, cinnamon, baking powder and salt. Beat in milk, eggs, melted butter and vanilla. Stir in cranberries. Spread into a 9x13 baking dish. Bake 40 min. Enjoy warm!

*I substitute applesauce for the butter and sometimes egg beaters for the eggs. It makes it lower in fat, but does not taste different. I also add chopped pecans, sliced almonds and shredded coconut. It is delicious. Try it with half n' half, yummy!

I am kinda salivating right now. That really sounds yummy! As soon as Geoff brings my brown sugar from the states, I am going to try it.

Yumm. I just made this and I love it. I had it for lunch. I did add the nuts and it made it extra good.
