Baked Oatmeal Recipe - WW 3 points

Baked Oatmeal

Once baked you can slice the loaf into 2 inch pieces, wrap up and store in the  fridge for 4 days. They are a convenient on-the-go snack...pair it with a yogurt and apple and you have a great balanced meal!

1 whole egg plus 1 egg white (or 1/4 cup egg substitute)
2 cups oatmeal
1/4 cup raisins
1/4 cup brown sugar
1 1/2 tsp. baking powder
1 cup skim milk
1/2 cup applesauce
1/4 tsp. cinnamon
1 tsp vanilla extract

Mix Oatmeal and baking powder.

Add remaining ingredients and mix well.

Pour in sprayed loaf pan or sprayed muffin tins.

Bake for 45 minutes at 350 degrees.

6 servings, 3 POINTS each (or 12 muffins, 1.5 points each)


Here are a few variations I've tried:

Vanilla flavored soy milk (instead of skim milk),
Protein powder (1 scoop; instead of the egg and use an extra 1/4 cup of water to make liquid),
Ripe banana (instead of apple sauce),
Dried cranberries (in place of raisins) and frozen blueberries and blackberries - you could also put a little bit of sliced almonds (1/4 cup), coconut (2 tbsp) for texture and a little more flavor.

Keep in mind some of these substitutions will add to your calorie count and WW points.
