  • 1/2 cup apple sauce I prefer chunky
  • 2 tablespoons melted butter
  • 1 large egg beaten
  • cooking spray

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 375 F.
  • Spray an 8 inch baking dish with cooking spray.
  • In a small bowl combine the oats, cinnamon, dried cherries, and baking powder.
  • Mix well.

  • Mix well until fully combined.
  • Pour the ingredients into the baking dish.

Notes

All ovens cook differently. Make sure to check on the oatmeal after 15 minutes. You do not want it to dry out. Add nuts to the mixture if you prefer. I like to add almonds to my individual bowl of oatmeal. Top with seasonal fruit. You can exchange the almond milk for fat free milk.
