Ingredients
Ingredients: 3 lbs Oats2 package (20 oz) Blueberries, frozen (unsweetened)2 package (20 oz) Strawberries, frozen, unsweetened4 cup Oat Bran2 cups Splenda*
Directions
Preheat oven to 250 degrees

Spray Pan (turkey-roaster sized) with non-stick cooking spray. Add oats, berries and oat bran. Cover with Splenda to the amount of sweetness desired. It's not supposed to taste sweet; I usually only use 1 cup, but everyone else in the family likes it sweeter.

Place in oven. Set timer to 1 hour. At 1 hour, mix the cereals. Place back in overn. Set timer to 1 hour. Do this a total of 3 hours. I've let it go another 1/2 hour until it sends out a rich, delicious smell. But then the oven must be turned off. Remove from oven or leave in. If you leave it in the oven, don't just forget it! When cool, I put it in a 2 gallon zip-type bag and put it away in freezer.

Makes 40 1/2 cup servings.

    I have this in the oven now and am not sure it is correct. It looks like just a bunch of mushed up fruit and oats. Can you tell me what the end result should be in terms of consistency? - 6/10/09

    EXCELLENT, however I used only fresh blueberries and 1 cup chopped almonds for added protein. - 4/29/08

    I modified this to use only blueberries (in a smaller amount) to fit my food restrictions and added 1 1/3 cups of chopped hazelnuts. While it raised the fat a bit, it lowered the carbs and upped the protein which works great for me. Really tasty! I'm an oat fanatic - 4/4/08
