    Pumpkin Baked Oats

    This oatmeal recipe makes a healthy breakfast loaded with fiber and beta carotene that tastes like a sinful dessert. This is a cake-like oatmeal makes a great afternoon snack too. 

    I love making individual portions for meal prep when I am wanting to eat on the go.  But they can be made easily in a 8×8 or 9×13 baking dish as well.

    Ingredients/shopping list

    several white bowls with ingredients for pumpkin baked oatmeal - old fashioned oats, four eggs, pumpkin puree, cinnamon, and maple syrup.

    Old Fashioned Oats – So I love using rolled oats as it gives this a really nice texture.

    Pumpkin Puree – Canned pumpkin is going to help add nutrients to the oatmeal and the flavor of pumpkin.

    Egg – The egg is the binder and can help create that fluffy texture.

    Maple Syrup – For the perfect sweetness. Use honey or brown sugar if you’d like.

    Pumpkin Pie Spice – So a little pumpkin spice seasoning is key as it is going to elevate the flavor.

    Baking Powder – Make sure your baking powder is not expired as it is important for allowing the oat mixture to rise.

    Sugar – Turbinado sugar is used to be a topping for the tasty oatmeal, but it is not a have to have item.

    Variations/ Substitutions

    1. Add a splash of vanilla extract to sweeten up the baked oats even more.
    2. Use ¼ teaspoon of cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves and a dash of ginger in place of pumpkin pie spice.
    3. Drizzle the top with a little extra maple syrup to help elevate the sweetness of the pumpkin pie oatmeal.
    4. Use quick oats instead of old-fashioned oats.
    5. If you like crunch add in some pumpkin seeds or even chopped nuts like pecans or walnuts.
    6. Use gluten-free oats to make this a gluten free recipe.
    7. Add in some mini chocolate chips or white chocolate chips to sweeten up this dish. The chocolate pairs with the pumpkin spice flavor nicely.
    8. Swirl in some peanut butter or hazelnut spread.
    9. For a vegan option, use an egg replacer or flax seed egg.

    Step 4: Next bake as directed until the center of the baked oats comes out clean when a toothpick is inserted into the center.

    Serve with Greek yogurt, whipped cream, tall glass of milk, or eat them plain. You can even top with some fresh berries or banana slices for added flavor.

    Tips

    • For a chunky texture use a whisk and mix without using a blender. If you want more of a cake-like then use a blender or food processor. Pick which method you want to make the best texture for you.
    • If you want use apple pie seasoning or cinnamon for an apple cinnamon flavor to the oats.
    • Make sure you stick a toothpick in the center of the oats to ensure it comes out clean of wet batter.
