world's best oatmeal

This is one of the most requested recipes I have made lately. Very tasty, and good for you, too.

Baked Blueberry and Peach Oatmeal
3 c. old-fashioned oats
1/2 c. brown sugar
2 tsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. salt
2 egg whites
1 egg
1 1/4 c. fat-free milk
1/4 c. canola oil
1 tsp. vanilla extract
1 can (15 oz.) sliced peaches in juice, drained and chopped
1 c. fresh or frozen blueberries
1/3 c. chopped walnuts
Additional fat-free milk, optional

1. In a large bowl, combine the oats, brown sugar, baking powder and salt. Whisk the egg whites, egg, milk, oil and vanilla; add to dry ingredients and stir until blended. Let stand for 5 minutes. Sitr in peaches and blueberries.

2. Transfer to an 11 in. x 7 in. baking dish coated with cooking spray. Sprinkle with walnuts. Bake, uncovered, at 350 degrees for 35-40 minutes or until top is lightly browned and a thermometer reads 160 degrees. Serve with additional milk if desired.
