Baked Oatmeal

Submitted by Bev I Am

"This is a healthy and delicious way to serve your oatmeal in the morning. With the first taste, you will wonder if it is actually breakfast, or should be served as dessert! Be sure to serve topped with warm milk and your favorite fruit, if desired. Can be made the day before and refrigerated. From the You Asked For It section of Gourmet Magazine, December 2007."

Made this for my dbf who loves oatmeal and often eats it on the go, in his car, on the way to his office. This was perfect for him! He takes his oatmeal without sugar, so added only about 2 tablespoons of brown sugar + the 2 tablespoons of brown sugar on top. Tasted it, delicious!! Thanks Bev! :)
