Baked Pumpkin Pie Oatmeal

nikkit321 · October 2011

I came across this recipe on budgetbytes.blogspot.com. Here's the original recipe, I'll show my tweaks as well.

15 oz can pumpkin puree (not the pumpkin pie filling, the pure pumpkin)
1/2 cup brown sugar
2 eggs
1 tsp pumpkin pie spice (I'm going to double this next time as I didn't think the spice flavor came through much)
1/2 tsp salt
3/4 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp vanilla extract (I'm a vanilla fan and used a generous splash)
1 1/2 cup milk (I used skim milk)
2 1/2 cups old-fashioned oats

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Whisk together the pumpkin, brown sugar, eggs, pumpkin pie spice, salt, and baking powder until smooth. Whisk in the milk, then stir in the dry oats. Coat an 8x8 or 9x11 baking dish with Pam non-stick spray. Pour in the pumpkin oat mixture and cover with foil. Bake covered for 30 minutes, then remove the foil and bake another 15 minutes.

Serve hot or cold, can microwave the leftovers. Serving sugestions are to add milk, maple syrup, whipped cream, or nuts. I liked it plain but warm, my kids liked it best warm with syrup. I thought about adding a few chocolate chips next time as we like pumpkin chocolate chip muffins.

You can substitute plain yogurt for 1/2 cup of the milk but it will probably take a little longer to bake.

thank you for this as my 13 yr old is getting ready to have surgery on her liver and because of this all her fav foods have been jerked from her, she cant even have anything in moderation. its so extreme she is allowed 1 gram of fat per 100 calories. so she can have this if I tweak it and the Dietitian explained to me that 2 egg whites was = to 1 whole egg in a recipe. so I will replace 4 egg whites and will cut down on the 3 grams of fat even more.

I wont to be able to give her a treat for halloween and this recipe is how I can do it.

again, thank you so much for sharing.
