The following recipes from the Parish House Inn bed and breakfast in Ypsilanti were featured on Local 4 News Saturday morning:

Michigan Baked Oatmeal

This is more like a pudding and doesn't taste like any oatmeal you may have eaten in the past. It makes 6 to 8 servings.

Ingredients:

  • 2 c. old fashioned oats
  • 4 c. milk
  • ½ tsp. almond flavoring
  • ¼ c. brown sugar
  • 1 large grated apple, unpeeled
  • ½ c. dried cherries
  • ½ c. slices almonds

Method:

  1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
  2. Coat a 9-by-9 inch pan with cooking spray.
  3. Add all the ingredients to the pan except the almonds and mix well.
  4. Sprinkle the almonds over the top.
  5. Bake uncovered for 30 to 40 minutes, or until bubbly.
  6. It will thicken as it cools.
  7. Leftovers reheat beautifully in the microwave the next morning.

Variations: omit cherries and almonds. Use ½ cup raisin and ½ teaspoon cinnamon or chopped apricots and pecans. Applesauce can be used in place of the grated apple as well.
