We’ve become fans of baked oatmeal around here so I’ve been looking for other recipes to try.  Everyone actually liked this one better than the last one I posted.  The applesauce adds a better flavor than the bananas.

1 1/2 cups unsweetened applesauce

1 egg

1/2 cup brown sugar

1/2 tablespoon vanilla

1/2 tablespoon cinnamon

1/4 teaspoon nutmeg

3/4 teaspoon salt

1 teaspoon baking powder

2 tablespoons melted butter

1 1/2 cups milk

1/2 cup raisins or chocolate chips

3 – 3 1/2 cups old fashioned rolled oats

sliced strawberries and whipped cream for topping

1  Preheat oven to 375.  Spray 9 x 9″ pan or 2 – 3 quart casserole dish with cooking spray.

2  Whisk together applesauce, egg, brown sugar, vanilla, cinnamon, nutmeg, salt, baking powder, and melted butter in a large bowl.  Add milk and whisk again.  Stir in raisins/chocolate chips and oats.  Pour into prepared dish.

3  Bake for 45 minutes.
