Baked Oatmeal Supreme for Breakfast

Made with oatmeal, raisins, walnuts and milk, Baked Oatmeal Supreme is a heart-healthy — and delicious! — way to start your day (makes an excellent in between meals snack, too). Serve warm or cold with whipped cream, frozen vanilla yogurt or another topping that you like.

2 cups dry oatmeal (I like to use old-fashioned oatmeal)

1/4 to 1/2 cup brown sugar (1/2 cup makes it very sweet)

1 1/2 cups milk

2 eggs

1 teaspoon baking powder

1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon salt

1/2 teaspoon cinnamon

1/2 cup walnuts (or slivered almonds)

1/2 cup raisins

Use a fork to mix all ingredients together thoroughly in a mixing bowl. Bake for 40 to 45 minutes at 350 degrees in a greased 8×8 inch casserole dish or an 8×8 inch cake pan. Serve with milk if desired.
