Variations of Baked Oatmeal

Remember the post about the baked oatmeal bars from a few months ago? Click here to view it:  Baked Oatmeal.  One of my wonderful members, April, sent me some yummy variations for them.  Here's what April sent me:

1.  In place of milk use light silk chocolate milk and 1 small package of sugar free chocolate pudding.  I omit the cinnamon and add a teaspoon of vanilla.  Everything else stays the same.

2.  Unsweetened coconut milk and 1/4 cup chopped dates and 1 oz walnuts chopped.  These are 3 pts.  These are good, however, I like the chocolate ones better.

I also double the recipe and make 12 muffins.  I use a ice cream scoop to measure them into each muffin tin.

Baked Oatmeal

A filling treat- big servings for low points!

1/2 C applesauce

1/3 C Splenda

2 eggs

3 C oats

2 tsp. baking powder

1/2 tsp salt

1/2 tsp cinnamon

1 C milk

Mix in order listed.  Bake at 375 in a rectangle glass pan (spray pan with pam) for approx. 30 minutes--until golden brown.

Makes 6 servings

2 points per serving

(3 points per serving if you use sugar instead of splenda) 

Options:

• Add 12 tsp of oil to the recipe too, that way you get 2 tsp per serving and it increases the points value by two (per serving), obviously- but an easy way to get your oil in!
• Add raisins or chocolate chips to make "tastier" but make sure you add the points for them as well!
