What does this mean? My full life feels even fuller...busier...but in the best of ways.
A busy mom, no matter what her work status, heck, a busy anyone can benefit from this recipe. It's a make-it-ahead-the-night-before-and-pop-it-in-the-oven-in-the-morning sort of dish that's been a real help this week. Based on my Apple Cinnamon Baked Oatmeal, consider this a holiday twist on a classic recipe.
Cranberry Pecan Baked Oatmeal (Vegan/Gluten-Free)
1/4 cup warm water*
3 tablespoons ground flax seed*
3 cups gluten-free oats (or use traditional if GF is not a concern)
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/3 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup natural applesauce (no sugar added)
1 1/2 cups soy, almond or coconut milk*
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 cup dried cranberries
1/4 cup chopped pecans
*you may substitute 2 eggs for the warm water and ground flax seed and regular milk for the soy milk to make this more traditionally.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees, if making right away, otherwise, preheat the oven when you're ready to bake!
In a small bowl, combine the warm water and ground flax seed (they form a thicker mixture that serves as an excellent egg replacer in this recipe). Set aside.
In a large bowl, combine the dry ingredients: the oats, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, baking powder, and brown sugar.
In a small bowl, combine the wet ingredients: water/flax mixure (or alternatively, 2 beaten eggs), applesauce, milk and vanilla extract. Stir well.
Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and mix until fully incorporated. Add the cranberries and stir well.
Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and mix until fully incorporated. Add the cranberries and stir well.
Pour into a 9x13 pan and top with pecans, if desired. Cover with foil.
Bake for 20-30 minutes, or until the oatmeal is firm and slightly browned, if desired. Alternatively, you can prepare this the night before and bake in the morning.
Makes 8 servings.
Peas and love,

Well I have to hear about this job!!! Congrats!! And yum, this baked oatmeal sounds divine!
We definitely need to catch up soon.
I really want to thank Dr Emu for saving my marriage. My wife really treated me badly and left home for almost 3 month this got me sick and confused. Then I told my friend about how my wife has changed towards me then she told me to contact Dr Emu that he will help me bring back my wife and change her back to a good woman. I never believed in all this but I gave it a try. Dr Emu casted a spell of return of love on her, and my wife came back home for forgiveness and today we are happy again.
