Cinnamon Baked Oatmeal


Nothing like a nice, warm breakfast!

This is a tasty, cinnamony baked oatmeal:

Ingredients (for each single serving):
1/2 cup oats (50g)
1/4 tsp vanilla extract
1/2 tsp cinnamon
1/4 cup unsweetened applesauce (60g) (You can sub pumpkin or mashed banana)
1/4 cup milk, creamer, juice, or water
1/16th tsp salt
Optional: handful of raisins, chopped walnuts, brown sugar for the top
You may also add a bit of sugar and/or butter into the oat mixture.  I was fine without it, but Dave decided to give it a go...he definitely preferred it with the extra flavor.

Directions:
1.  Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
2.  Combine raw oats, spices, applesauce, and liquid.
3.  Pour into a small baking pan, loaf pan, or 1-cup ramekin
4.  Cook for 15-20 minutes, or more until it’s firm. (at this point, we sprinkled on some raw sugar)
5.  Broil for 3 more minutes (or simply just bake longer, but broiling gives it a nice crust). Don’t forget to spray your ramekins first, if you want your cakes to pop out.
