A cross between a cake, cookie and a bowl of oatmeal, this make ahead treat is handy to heat up and have for a quick healthy breakfast or snack. You can add a touch more brown sugar if you like it sweeter and a splash of milk for more creaminess.

Ingredients

2 cups rolled oats (not instant)
1 ½ cups fat-free milk or soymilk
½ cup egg substitute or egg whites
½ cup packed brown sugar
1 teaspoons baking powder
1 tablespoon melted margarine
½ teaspoon cinnamon
1 ½ cups chopped apples

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 350°F.
2. In a small bowl mix the milk, brown sugar, egg substitute/whites, margarine and cinnamon together.
3. In a larger bowl combine the oats and the baking powder.
4. Pour the wet mixture into the bowl with the oats, add the apples and mix well.
5. Spoon the mixture into a 8 x 8 inch pan coated with cooking spray and bake for 30-40 minutes, until top is firm and a toothpick comes out clean in the center.
