Baked Oatmeal is a healthy and nutritious breakfast option, especially during cold winter. This version of baked Oatmeal has pumpkin puree, grated apple, nuts, and spices. It tastes just like pumpkin pie but a lot healthier. It seriously takes 10 minutes to put everything together and can easily be prepared in advance. Serve it warm with milk or a dollop of Greek yogurt for a filling breakfast. This recipe is quite versatile and you can easily change it up as per what you have on hand. 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. 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.
