Michelle W.’s Baked Oatmeal
The following shared with me by my wonderful neighbor and adopted mom, who received it from the owner of a bed and breakfast in the heart of Amish country, Lancaster Pennsylvania.
I double the recipe, mix it overnight and cover with plastic wrap, and store in the fridge. the next morning, as soon as I awaken, I remove wrap, put pan in a cold oven, turn oven on to 350 and bake about 1 hour or until the top is brown and crunchy. I like to add fresh fruit (blueberries, peaches, apples are divine) prior to baking but my son prefers it plain. This is my “go-to” dish when I have a houseful of guests for holidays.
