Baked Oatmeal

Happy Wednesday!  The weekend is almost here!  This week's recipe is one of our favorite breakfast dishes.  It also provides a good afternoon snack.  I substituted maple syrup, in honor of the season, for the brown sugar and took the flavor up a notch.  It is perfect for a snowy morning like the one we are having here in WNY.  Hope you enjoy!

Baked Oatmeal - from Cooking Light magazine
2 Cups uncooked oatmeal
1/2 Cup packed brown sugar (or maple syrup)
1/3 Cup raisins
1 Tbsp chopped walnuts
1 tsp baking powder
1 1/2 Cups fat free milk
1/2 cup applesauce
2 Tbsp butter
1 egg

Preheat oven to 375.  Coat an 8x8 dish with cooking spray.
Combine first 5 ingredients in a medium bowl.  Combine milk, apple sauce, butter and egg in a separate bowl.  Add milk mixture to oat mixture and stir well.  Spread mixture into the prepared 8x8 dish and bake at 375 for 20 minutes.

This dish is good warm or cold.
