Baked Oatmeal

  adapted from allrecipes.com

We are an oatmeal loving family and any way to change it up and make it more delicious is always appealing. This oatmeal ROCKS. It's buttery, a little crumbly, and completely addictive.

4 cups rolled oats
1 C brown sugar
1TBSP cinnamon
1/2 tsp cloves
1 TBSP baking powder
1 1/2 tsp salt
1 1/2 C milk
1/4 C water
3 eggs
1/2 C melted butter
1 TBSP vanilla

Mix all together in a large bowl. I just use a wooden spoon.

Add 2 chopped apples. Keep the peels on and make it 1/2 inch dice or less. Stir in the apples.

Pour into a greased 9x13 pan. Bake uncovered at 350 for 40 minutes.

Dave's Raves: I LIKED it. So. Good. Please make it some more.

Options: replace the apples with 1 C dried cranberries, or raisins, or whatever dried fruit you wish. Throw in some nuts. Make it your own!
