Baked Oatmeal

By angielaine

I have made this ahead of time and baked it the morning of several times. I even made it for our oatmeal loving friend, Nick Wulf, during a remodel weekend in Altus. It serves up plenty and is hearty enough to last all morning long – even when demolition is involved!

Ingredients

• 2 cups frozen blueberries
• 2 Tbsp lemon juice, divided
• 1 (18-ounce) container regular oats
• 3 large eggs, beaten
• 1 cup firmly packed brown sugar
• 1 cup unsweetened apple sauce
• 1 Tbsp ground cinnamon
• 4 tsp baking powder
• 1 tsp salt
• 1 1/4 cups water
• 1 cup milk
• 1/4 cup melted butter

Preparation

Step 1

Toss blueberries in 1 Tbsp lemon juice and spread on the bottom of a lightly grease 13x9 inch baking dish. Combine oats and next 9 ingredients along with remaining Tbsp of lemon juice in a large bowl. Stir well. Pour mixture over blueberries. Bake covered at 350°F for 30 minutes. Uncover and bake an additional 20 minutes.
