Baked Oatmeal - Our Best Bites
3 cups regular oats (not quick-cooking)
3/4 cup brown sugar
1 teaspoons salt
2  teaspoons  cinnamon
2  teaspoons  baking powder
3/4 cup craisins, raisins, dried cherries, or other dried fruit
1 cup milk
1/2 cup butter, melted or applesauce (I used applesauce and it tasted great)
2  teaspoons  vanilla
2 eggs

Preheat oven to 350.  In a large bowl, combine the oats, brown sugar, cinnamon, baking powder, salt, and craisins.  In a smaller bowl, mix together the milk, butter, vanilla, and eggs.  Add the liquid mixture to the dry mixture and whisk to combine.  Pour into a deep 9" pie plate or an 8x8" or 9x9" baking dish.  Bake for 40 minutes (mine took 30) or until the top is golden brown.  Serve immediately with a splash of warmed milk.  Serves 8.
