Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup rolled oats
  • 1/4 tsp cinnamon, and 1/4 tsp pumpkin pie spice or additional cinnamon
  • 1/4 tsp baking powder
  • 1/8 tsp salt
  • 1/2 cup milk of choice (or water)
  • 1/4 cup canned pumpkin (or mashed sweet potato)
  • 1 1/2 tbsp sweetener of choice
  • Optional: 1-2 tbsp nut butter of choice
  • Optional add-ins, such as chocolate chips, crushed walnuts or pecans, shredded coconut, etc.

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) to prepare for baking the oatmeal mixture.
  2. Mix Ingredients: Stir all the ingredients together in a bowl until well combined. Alternatively, for a smoother texture, add everything to a blender and blend until smooth.
  3. Prepare Baking Dish: Grease an oven-safe dish to prevent sticking. For a gooey center, use a deeper dish; for a fully cooked, less moist interior, use a wider, shallower dish.
  4. Bake: Pour the oatmeal mixture into the prepared dish and bake for 20 minutes until set and cooked through.
  5. Add Toppings and Serve: After baking, add your favorite toppings such as additional nut butter, nuts, or chocolate chips, then serve warm and enjoy.

Notes

  • Use milk or water based on dietary preference or to adjust creaminess.
  • Feel free to substitute canned pumpkin with mashed sweet potato for a variation.
  • Add-ins like nuts, chocolate chips, or shredded coconut can be mixed into the batter or used as toppings.
  • The baking time may vary slightly depending on the depth of your dish; check for doneness by ensuring the center is set.
  • For a dairy-free recipe, use plant-based milk alternatives.
