Breakfast Oatmeal Custard image

Low calorie, low fat, filling breakfast custard that you can make-ahead for the week. 60 minutes prep time is because the steel cut oats take so long to cook. I usually place two bars in a bowl, microwave them for about 2 minutes, break them up with a spoon and top with vanilla soy milk, but I'm sure it would be equally good with cream, regular milk or perhaps even yogurt. I especially like it because it provides protein and carb in one bowl.

Time 2h

Yield 10 Bars, 5 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

3 1/2 cups water
1 cup steel cut oats (McCann's)
3 cups egg substitute (Regular Egg Beaters)
1 medium banana, Mashed
1 cup blueberries, Washed, stems removed
1 tablespoon vanilla
1 cup Splenda granular
cinnamon
ginger
nutmeg

Steps:

  • Bring water to a boil in a medium to large sauce pan.
  • Add Oats, stirring while boiling until water becomes cloudy and a little thickened.
  • Reduce heat to low and simmer, stirring once or twice, for 30 - 45 minutes.
  • Let oatmeal cool to room temperature.
  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • Add remaining ingredients to pot.
  • Stir well to ensure all ingredients are evenly distributed.
  • Spray a 9 x 12 pan with non-stick cooking spray.
  • Pour ingredients of pot into sprayed baking pan.
  • Bake in pre-heated oven for 45 minutes to one hour, or until the top of the custard is firm to the touch.
  • Turn off the oven and let the "custard" cool in the pan - this lets the last of liquid thicken up.
  • Once cool enough to handle, slice the custard into 10 even pieces.
