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!
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.
