Peachy Baked Oatmeal

I have been a lover of oatmeal for many years.  I especially love it baked...

it's great to have handy to re-heat a few mornings without making a mess. 

I love that it uses canned peaches too, so....

I decided to make this simple recipe when I saw it shared at 

Gooseberry Patch online. 

But I did add 2 c. milk to the recipe. 

As I sat in my chair enjoying it, I recalled another Peach/Oatmeal

dish I have on the blog...it has added Greek yogurt for a protein boost.

I cut back the sugar amount and diced the peaches, instead of leaving them in slices...it was delicious! COMFORTING! 

I enjoyed it warm, with warmed milk.  MMMM! 

It's quick, easy and mixed in one bowl! 

Do hope you'll give it a try soon. 

PEACHY BAKED OATMEAL 

2 eggs, beaten

2 c. milk 

(almond milk works good too) 

1/3 c. brown sugar

(or use 1/4 c. honey) 

1-1/2 tsp. baking powder 

1/4 tsp. salt

1-1/2 tsp. cinnamon 

1/2 tsp. nutmeg

(I added a little more) 

1-1/2 tsp. vanilla extract

3 c. old fashioned oats, uncooked

1/3 c. oil

1 can (16 ozs.) sliced peaches, partially drained, diced

Serve with warmed milk

Spray 8" X 8" baking dish with non-stick cooking spray; set aside. 

Preheat oven to 375*. 

In a large bowl, combine eggs, milk, brown sugar (or honey), baking powder, salt, spices and vanilla; beat well.  (I mixed it all by hand - no need for a mixer) 

Add remaining ingredients (except warmed milk); mix until thoroughly blended.  Pour into prepared dish. 

Bake 20-25 minutes until the center is set.  Serve in bowls with warmed milk. 

Yield: Serves 6 - 7
