Baked Oatmeal

Yum!!!! Try these they are so good. Many of you may know, or not know..i freezer batch allot of food. It helps with dishes, and prep time and getting the kids off to a great start! I mostly bake and freeze breakfast and lunches. It helps free up time to get Elijah off to therapy and Julia get school started and still have time to nurse the baby and make sure my soon to be 2 year old eats. And i can make it nutritious.

• 
  Preheat oven to 375°
• 4 cups uncooked quick-cooking oats
• 1 cup packed brown sugar
• 2/3 to 3/4 cup raisins (I used 3 snack sized boxes)
• 2 teaspoon baking powder
• 3 cups almond milk or milk 
• 1 cup applesauce
• 4 tablespoons butter or butter substitute, melted 
• 2 large egg, beaten 
• Natural Maple syrup for drizzling 
• 
  

1. Mix the first 4 ingredients in a medium bowl.Mix the milk, applesauce, butter, and egg to oat mixture; stir well. Put in muffin cups,spray with cooking spray.  Bake at 375° for 20 minutes.This made about 26 "cup cakes" for us. *Please note these do not rise like cup cakes do, so make sure you fill them to just about where you want them, they may rise a little bit..but its minimal, I  let mine cool for like an hour and then put them in the freezer. We of course had to taste test a few ;)
