This is a birthday-morning favorite around here, from my great-cook friend Janet. Since the original recipe is in my husband's nearly illegible hand, and my kitchen helpers are having a hard time reading their father's handwriting, we are re-typing it here.
3 C. old-fasioned oats
2 tsp. baking powder
1 tsp. salt
1 tsp. cinnamon
1/2 C. melted butter (This is 1 stick, although I use a bit less.)
1/2 C. brown sugar (The recipe originally called for 1 C., but I use half.)
2 eggs, beaten
1 C. milk
dried fruit (optional)
Stir together oats, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon, mixing well. Set aside. Melt butter in 8x12 pan (in oven or microwave); turn to coat bottom and sides. Pour remaining melted butter into a large mixing bowl and add brown sugar. Stir to mix well, then add eggs and milk and mix again. Stir in blended dry ingredients (and optional dried fruit, if desired), stirring to soak and coat well. Pour into buttered pan and bake at 350 degrees for 30 minutes.
We serve in bowls topped with cold milk. It does set up enough to serve on a plate like a casserole, if you prefer, but it will be crumbly as you eat it.
