Why reinvent the wheel when you can simply
build on its greatness, right?
Baked oatmeal remains one of Lancaster County's favorite dishes to start the
day. This particular recipe combines hearty oats with pumpkin, nutmeg, cloves,
ginger, cinnamon, and brown sugar. It's satisfying with just the right amount
of sweetness.

3 cups old-fashioned rolled oats
1/2 cup brown sugar
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/4 teaspoons kosher salt
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon cloves
1/2 teaspoon ginger
1/2 cup raisins
3 eggs
1/2 cup pumpkin puree
1/4 cup olive oil
1 1/2 cup milk
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
Optional: whipped cream for topping
How to make it:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Stir together all ingredients and then pour into a well-greased 8" square
or 8x10 baking dish.
Bake for 30-40 minutes or until knife inserted in center comes out mostly
clean. (If the oatmeal has been in the refrigerator before baking it, give
it a quick stir and bake for 40-45 minutes.)
