Ingredients

Scale

Dry Ingredients

  • 2 cups rolled oats
  • 1 tablespoon pumpkin pie spice (or a mix of cinnamon and nutmeg)

Wet Ingredients

  • 1 cup canned pumpkin puree
  • 1 cup almond milk (or milk of choice)
  • 1/4 cup maple syrup (or honey)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Prepare an 8×8 inch baking dish by lightly greasing it to prevent sticking.
  2. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats with the pumpkin pie spice and stir until well mixed, ensuring the spices are evenly distributed.
  3. Combine Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the canned pumpkin puree, almond milk, and maple syrup until smooth and fully incorporated.
  4. Combine Mixtures: Gradually add the wet mixture into the dry oats, stirring thoroughly to coat all the oats evenly with the wet ingredients.
  5. Pour Into Baking Dish: Transfer the combined mixture into the prepared baking dish and spread it out evenly using a spatula for uniform baking.
  6. Bake: Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for 30 minutes, or until the top is set and golden edges begin to appear.
  7. Cool: Remove the baked oatmeal from the oven and allow it to cool for about five minutes; this helps it set further and makes it easier to cut.
  8. Serve: Cut the baked oatmeal into squares and serve warm. Optionally, top with extra almond milk, chopped nuts, or fresh fruit to enhance flavor and texture.

Notes

  • You can substitute almond milk with any dairy or non-dairy milk of your choice.
