Mix:
1 cup rolled oats
1 cup oat bran
1 ½ tsp. baking powder
1 tsp. baking soda
Dash salt

Blend:
2 eggs
½ cup plain yogurt
1 cup milk
½ cup unsweetened applesauce
1 tsp. cinnamon
1 tsp. pumpkin pie spice
½ tsp. nutmeg
1 ½ tsp. vanilla flavoring

Preheat oven to 350°F.

Spray 8” x 8” glass pan with non-stick spray or line with foil.

In a bowl, mix together oats, oat bran, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. In another bowl, whisk together eggs, yogurt, milk, applesauce, cinnamon, pumpkin pie spice, nutmeg, and vanilla. Add wet ingredients to dry, stir, and put into pan and into oven immediately.

Bake for 25 – 30 minutes, or until top is golden brown and oatmeal feels “firm” to the touch.

Cool for a few minutes and then turn out of the pan onto a cooling rack.

Serve warm or cold.

Makes 4 – 8 servings.
