Baked Oatmeal for Breakfast

If you are not a big fan of Oatmeal prepared traditionally, then baked Oatmeal is a great alternative. It took me years to develop a liking for Oatmeal. I didn’t the mushy texture of cooked oatmeal. Baked Oatmeal has a different texture. The top layer is slightly crispy and the inside is more creamy (not mushy).

This wholesome breakfast is also good to make for a crowd. Assemble it ahead of time(or the night before) and bake just before serving.

How to make Pumpkin Baked Oatmeal

Baked oatmeal is a dump-and-bake recipe. You need the following ingredients

Rolled Oats – Rolled oat is generally used as it gives a chewy bite. Quick-cooking oats or steel-cut oats will not work here. For gluten-free versions, substitute gluten-free oats.

Pumpkin puree– Canned or homemade anything will do. It uses a full can of pumpkin puree, so no worries about leftover puree.

Apples- I have used Shredded apples. Apple kind of blends with the rest of the ingredients. It adds a mild sweetness to the final dish.

Maple Syrup – Pumpkin puree and apple are sweet, so you don’t need a whole lot of maple syrup.

Milk – Add milk of your choice. You can go dairy-free and use almond milk, and oats milk instead of regular milk.

Spice- Pumpkin pie spice and ground cinnamon. Try to use freshly ground spices for the best flavor. Amount of spice you can adjust as per preference.

Egg – use flax eggs instead.

Walnuts – Toasted walnuts. You can also use toasted pecan

This recipe is quite versatile and you can easily change it up as per what you have on hand.
