Baked oatmeal is a local favorite in the Amish county of Lancaster, Pennsylvania. Here is my version.
Dry Ingredients
1 cup Rolled Oats (preferably thick and organic)
1 tablespoons Chia seeds
1/4 cup Flaxseed Meal
2 tablespoons Buckwheat Flour
1/2 cup Walnuts, finely ground.
1 teaspoon Baking Soda
1/2 cup Carrot (grated)
Wet Ingredients
1/2 cup Buttermilk (whole)
1 Egg (large)
1 Banana (mashed)
1/4 cup Butter (softened)
1/2 cup Apple Sauce (optional)
Directions
Add the wet ingredients to the dry and mix well. Bake in a 350F oven for 30-40 minutes. Let cool, then slice and serve with fresh blueberries and honey or maple syrup. Can be frozen and then reheated gently in a microwave, then toasted.
