The flavors of a molasses cookie and gingerbread in a delicious baked oatmeal.
My husband loves just about anything molasses. Molasses cookies, gingerbread, and even molasses milk. Yes, he drinks milk with molasses stirred in.
It is like chocolate milk, but with molasses. I can’t stand it, but he loves it.
So I came up with this baked oatmeal for my husband. I think it might be his new favorite.
It really is like a gingerbread cookie in the form of baked oatmeal.

Question: in the ingredients it’s 1/4 cup brown sugar, in the directions it’s 1/2 cup; which is correct?
Lynn
It is 1/4 cup brown sugar. Sorry about that. I had handwritten notes about making this in both an 8×8 pan and doubling it for a larger 9×13 pan I just typed it out wrong when I posted the recipe for the smaller version. 1/4 cup brown sugar is the correct amount. Thank you for catching that. I fixed the directions.
