Baked Oatmeal


This is the beat oatmeal ever.
This recipe is especially great when you've got company - it is prepared the night before for an easy bake in the morning. I made this recipe last weekend and it received rave reviews from our guests. I served the oatmeal with an assortment of fresh fruit toppings and the caramel topping included below.

Oatmeal:
(serves 5)
2 cups oatmeal
4 cups milk
5 eggs

Blend eggs and milk, add oatmeal. Pour into a greased 8x8 pan and refrigerate overnight. In the morning, bake in a pre-heated over at 350° for about 45 minute or until liquid is absorbed. This recipe can be doubled and baked in a 8x13 pan for about an hour. Serve in squares.

Caramel:
1 cup butter
1 cup cream
1 cup white sugar
1 cup brown sugar

Combine ingredients in a sauce pan and heat until warm and liquid. Serve over oatmeal.
