• Ingredients: 10
• Serves: 6

ingredients

• 1 cup rolled oats (not quick-cooking)
• 1 cup hot milk (must be hot enough to soften the oats)
• 2 large eggs, beaten
• 6 tablespoons butter, melted
• 1⁄4 cup firmly packed light brown sugar
• 1⁄2 cup dark raisin
• 2 - 2 1⁄2 cups all-purpose flour, as needed
• 2 teaspoons baking powder
• 1⁄2 teaspoon salt
• 1⁄4 teaspoon ground cinnamon

directions

1. Preheat oven to 350°; butter a deep 1 ½ quart casserole and set aside.
2. In a mixing bowl, combine the oats and milk, stir, and let stand until oats are softened, about 10 minutes.
3. Add in eggs, butter, brown sugar, and raisins; stir until well blended.
4. Sift 2 cups of the flour, the baking powder, salt, and cinnamon directly into the oat mixture; stir until well blended and smooth, adding more flour as necessary for a firm consistency.
5. Scrape batter into the prepared casserole; bake until a straw inserted into the center comes out clean, about 1 hour.
6. Let the bread cool slightly, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely; to serve cut into slices.
