Oatmeal Breakfast Clafoutis

Nice texture, good flavor, and just the perfect amount of sweetness (for me).

I'm generally not a fan of baked oatmeal, but the ease of preparation and inclusion of dried cranberries made me want to try this. I'm glad I did! It is not mushy, like the dried oatmeals I tried previously.

I used raw almonds (chopped) for the nuts, all cranberries for the dried fruit, old fashioned oats, and a fuji apple for the fresh fruit. However, this recipe is widely adaptable for what you have at home. I was also trying to use up the tail end of a bottle of vanilla, and so doubled that (to 2 tsp).

According to wikipedia, a clafoutis is a baked flan-like dessert, generally made with cherries. This particular recipe was not very flan like. Hmm, this now has me thinking about dessert!
