Baked Oatmeal

I've read a lot about baked oatmeal, but didn't try it for a long time.  I tried out a few different recipes before combining a couple and coming up with this:


BAKED OATMEAL
Ingredients:

• 3 c. quick oats
• 1/2 c. brown sugar (heaped)
• 1 1/4 c. milk
• 2 eggs
• 2 1/2 tsp. baking powder
• 3/4 tsp. salt
• 2 tsp. vanilla
• peanut butter to taste

Put the oats in a bowl with the sugar and milk.  They'll absorb the milk, so stir them around to evenly distribute the moisture.  Beat the eggs, baking powder, salt, and vanilla and add to the oat mixture.  Stir until combined.  Add in as much peanut butter as you want - I usually use about 1/2 cup.  Stir as much as you want - some people like swirls of peanut butter, and some people like a more even texture.

Bake at 350* for about 20 minutes.  A knife should come out clean from the middle.

Enjoy!
