Deuteronomy 11:18-19

18 Fix these words of mine in your hearts and minds; tie them as symbols on your hands and bind them on your foreheads. 19 Teach them to your children, talking about them when you sit at home and when you walk along the road, when you lie down and when you get up.

Baked Oatmeal Muffins!

What a great way to start the day :) I make a bunch of these a head of time and the kids drag them out of the freezer, nuke them, and make their own breakfast!! Really nice on the days when the baby finally went to sleep at 2am..

This recipe is from a book Papa brought home from Virginia in 98 called Mennonite Country-Style Recipes and Kitchen Secrets by Esther H Shank.
It's on page 90 but if you just open our book on the binding it falls right open to it :)

Baked Oatmeal
2 eggs beaten
1 cup of milk
1/2 cup vegetable oil, we use homemade butter
1 cup brown sugar
2 tsp baking powder
1 tsp salt 
1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
Mix this all together until it it well mixed. 
Then add.
3 cups quick oatmeal
1/2 raisins or not if you don't like them :) Most of us here do so raisins are a must. 
Pour into a greased 8X12 baking dish and bake at 350 for about 25 minutes. Serve with warm milk. Mildred Bucher. 
We do this recipe twice and still put it in the same size pan and it works.. you just have to cook it for 40 to 60 minutes instead of 25 minutes. This morning Papa did it SIX times and we got a 8X12 baking dish and 3  muffins short of 4 doz.
