Lancaster Farmhouse Baked Oatmeal

Categories: Breakfast, Oatmeal

Ingredients

• 1 1/2 cups old fashioned oats
• 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
• 1 1/2 cups milk
• 2 tablespoons light brown sugar or 2 tablespoons dark brown sugar
• 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 3/4-1 cup chopped dried apple (or dried apricots, or dried mixed fruit)
• 1 cup heavy cream (warm or chilled)
• ground cinnamon

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 350°; butter a medium baking dish.

2. Add the oats and butter to a heatproof mixing bowl.

3. Pour 1 ½ cup boiling water over them and let stand 5 minutes.

4. Stir in the milk, brown sugar, cinnamon, and salt.

5. When well mixed, stir in the apples.

6. Spoon mixture into the prepared dish.

7. Cover and bake for 35 minutes, then uncover and continue to cook for 5-10 minutes, until thick and bubbly.

8. Spoon into bowls (it will be stickier than boiled oatmeal) and serve hot with cream drizzled around the cereal and a dusting of cinnamon.
