I could say that this recipe was handed down from my great-great-great-great-grandmother, but that isn't the case! I can't say I've every had it, but still....... Taking some suggestions to heart, I've cut back on the original 1/4 cup of molasses, & finally made it optional, realizing that some people [for some reason or other!] just don't have my taste for molasses!

SERVES 6 (change servings and units)

Ingredients

3 cups water
3/4 teaspoon salt
1 2/3 cups old fashioned oats
2/3 cup dark raisin
1/2 cup maple syrup
1/4 cup dark brown sugar
1/4 cup walnuts, chopped
2 eggs, beaten
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1-2 tablespoon dark molasses (or more) (optional)

Directions

1
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
2
In large heavy saucepan bring to boil the water & salt.
3
Reduce heat to medium low & add oats, cooking 5 minutes & stirring frequently.
4
Transfer to a 6-cup souffle dish, then add last 8 or 9 ingredients [realizing that dark molasses is to be used only if you WANT a molasses taste to this dish], stirring to combine.
5
Bake 1 hour until set.
6
Spoon into bowls & serve with cold milk.

I loved this, I did a half batch but just eyeballed the amount of maple & molasses & I used Splenda instead of sugar. I'm not a ginger lover so almost cut the ginger amount but decided against it with the addition of cinnamon & nutmeg and I'm glad I did. The spice mix is lovely, the texture is great & this proved a lovely warming brekky that did me for 2 mornings. Thanks Syd!

I loved this recipe. I did omit the raisins, nuts and molasses because I prefer just the oatmeal. This is a great filling breakfast. Thanks for a great recipe Sydney Mike.

Thank you for posting. I made the recipe in my slow cooker over night and had it for breakfast. I found the amount of sweeteners way too much and I added only 1 Tbsp. molasses. It was nice to try, however I am not going to make it again as I found it heavy and not the way I like oatmeal.

This was easy and a nice change from regular oatmeal. I didn't have any raisins, so I used mixed dried fruit; otherwise, I made it as written. I loved the crunchiness of the nuts. My husband thought it was too sweet (it was fine for my tastes) and he and my son thought the molasses came through a bit too strongly, so next time, I may cut back on the molasses to just 1 or 2 tablespoons. Thanks for posting!
