Introduction
This recipe (slightly adapted to make it palatable to the lactose intolerant) comes from the Greenlake Guesthouse, a bed-and-breakfast in Seattle, Washington. It’s an easy way to feed a crowd oatmeal for breakfast.
Ingredients
| 3 | cups rolled oats |
| ¾ | cup brown sugar |
| 2 | tsp. baking powder |
| 1 | tsp. ground cinnamon |
| ½ | tsp. grated nutmeg |
| 1 | tsp. salt |
| 2 | eggs, beaten |
| 1 | cup milk (almond, soy, or other non-dairy milk is fine) |
| ½ | cup (1 stick) butter, melted, or 2 Tbsp. vegetable oil mixed with 1 cup applesauce |
Steps
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Butter or oil a square baking dish (either 8 or 9 inches square is fine).
- Combine all the dry ingredients in a bowl. Combine all the wet ingredients in a larger bowl. Add the dry ingredients to the wet, and mix together.
- Spread the mixture in the prepared baking dish and bake for 35 to 45 minutes, until the oatmeal is browned on top and a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean.
- Cut into wedges and serve warm, with milk or cream, raisins or dried cranberries, and chopped nuts. In summer, serve with fresh berries; in winter, try fresh pears or caramelized apples on top.
Notes
Variation: For a faster cooking time, use greased ramekins instead of a single baking dish and bake for about 20 to 25 minutes.

I eat oatmeal daily however I use a natural sugar substitute rather then sugar and some cinnamon. Would that work with this recipe. I love the idea of a chunk of baked oatmeal for breakfast. I’d feel like I’m eating something a bit different.

I’m wondering exactly how you are recommending to serve this. The recipe says to serve with milk or cream, and that means to me to put a portion in a bowl, and pour milk or cream over the top. Is that the recommentadtion? Thanks!
