Baking and eating my homemade baked goods is one of my favorite things to do, but it can eat up a lot of points very quickly. So when I had a couple of overripe bananas to use up, I asked the Weight Watchers Power Foods Board for advice on banana bread. I was met with a few recipes for baked oatmeal, one of which I decided to try tonight. It was quite yummy!
Here is the recipe, shared by Lynn on the Power Foods board:
Baked Oatmeal
2 1/2 cups oatmeal
1 1/4 cup canned pumpkin, mashed banana, applesauce, any pureed fruit or veg. (or 2 or so cups of shredded zucchini)
2/3 cup splenda (or to taste)
1 cup skim milk
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 eggs
1 T apple pie spice
OR 1/3 c cocoa powder and a bit of sf/ff chocolate pudding mix (pudding optional)
1 tsp vanilla
Preheat oven to 350. Mix all ingredients together and spoon into muffin cups sprayed with cooking spray. Bake for 20-25 minutes or until done.
I made it with the cocoa powder, no pudding, and mashed bananas. Very tasty!
