Baked Oatmeal Recipe

Last week at the women's Christmas brunch at our church, one gal made baked oatmeal.  I like the recipe because it's easy to make gluten free and super yummy...  Note to gluten free folks, I read online that you have to get rolled oats that specify that they are gluten free if you have a severe allergy.  Quaker Oats doesn't guarantee that their oats have not experienced cross-contamination and can't be considered gluten free :(  But, I read that there are oatmeal brands that certify that their oats are gluten free and have been processed on gluten free equipment.

Baked Blueberry Oatmeal

3 cups rolled oats or old fashioned oatmeal

1/2 cup brown sugar

1/4 cup honey

2 heaping tsp. baking powder = 2 1/2 tsp. baking powder

1/2 tsp. salt

2 eggs

1 cup milk or 1 cup rice milk

1/2 cup vegetable oil

1/2 tsp of vanilla

1 cup frozen blueberries

1/2 cup finely chopped pecans

Combine all ingredients in mixing bowl. Stir and pour into square 8 x 8 pyrex baking dish.  Pour frozen blueberries over top and spread out.  Press blueberries lightly into the top. Bake at 350 for about 40 minutes. Test with spoon in middle to see if done.  The middle shouldn't be wet.

My husband loved it and my kids liked it too, so this is sure to become a regularly made dish in our house.  

My husband, of course, liked it topped with whip cream!
