GINGERBREAD BAKED OATMEAL

Gingerbread Baked Oatmeal image

This baked oatmeal caused a bit of a stir in my kitchen. I set it out on the counter to cool just about the same time that I had dinner getting on the table. My oldest bounced through getting the cups and silverware onto the table and got so excited that I made brownies for dessert. {insert mom guilt here} Sigh...they totally looked like brownies, but to his dismay they were not brownies. I informed him that this was breakfast for the next morning, told him what it was, and he asked if he could still have some for "dessert." It was a 9x13-inch baking dish, so I knew there would be enough...so I obliged. The reaction. "Mom, this is so great, can I have another bowl?" {mom guilt dissipates.} Note to self...don't make something that looks like dessert that isn't dessert when serving dinner. Got that self? Needless to say...this recipe is a keeper. Next time, I'll be doubling up and baking 2 9x13s, cutting 1 up into "breakfast size pieces" and freezing the portions individually so we have a quick and easy breakfast on hand for the busy holiday season ahead! Also, this go me thinking...how often do you make dessert?

1/2 cup brown sugar

1/2 cup dark molasses
2 teaspoons baking soda
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon ground ginger
1 teaspoon ground cloves
1 teaspoon salt

Preheat oven to 350°F. Lightly grease a 9x13-inch glass baking dish with non-stick cooking spray.
