Special Notes

Recipe from Patsy Lincolnhol: "Got this recipe from our YMCA Christmas potluck,,,very good", "would also try other dried fruits. Love Mom"

I use dried cherries and dried blueberries. I grease with butter the bottom and sides of the baking pan. If I use heaping cups of oats then I add a little extra milk. I also reduce the brown sugar by a bit and use some maple syrup instead. This recipe will feed 8-10 people if you are serving it with other things.
