It’s begun, friends! I’m sharing fall recipes. Yippee! I’m kicking things off with

Baked Pumpkin Oatmeal!

Orange oatmeal! Yay or nay? It’s a little startling at first (what exactly is that?), but once you taste it you’ll be hooked. Pumpkin, oats, brown sugar, cinnamon, pecans, dried cranberries… What’s not to love?

Baked oatmeal is one of my favorite breakfasts because it can be made in advance, and portions reheated as needed. It’s perfect for busy mornings. No standing over the stove stirring a pot of oatmeal. Simply combine the dry ingredients, combine the wet ingredients, place in a casserole dish, and bake. You can eat it fresh from the oven, or refrigerate it for later.

Pumpkin Spice Oatmeal

This oatmeal is creamy with a pumpkin flavor and spices throughout. It’s studded with dried cranberries and topped with brown sugar-cinnamon pecans. It’s a big bowl of warm fall flavors! The perfect way to start the day.

Ingredients

Dry ingredients:

• 3 cups old fashioned rolled oats
• 1/2 cup brown sugar
• 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
• 1 1/2 teaspoons pumpkin pie spice or ground cinnamon
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/3 cup dried cranberries

Wet ingredients:

• 2 eggs lightly beaten
• 2 cups milk
• 1 cup pumpkin puree
• 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
• 2 tablespoons melted butter or melted coconut oil

Topping:

• 2 tablespoons melted butter or coconut oil
• 3/4 cup chopped pecans
• 1/4 cup brown sugar
• 1/2 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice or ground cinnamon

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 350°F. Butter a 2 ½ quart baking dish.
2. Combine all dry ingredients and place in the prepared baking dish.
3. Whisk the wet ingredients and pour over the oat mixture. Gently shake the baking dish back and forth from side to side to allow the wet mixture to get down into the oats.
4. In a separate bowl, combine all topping ingredients until the pecans are thoroughly coated in brown sugar. Scatter the topping mixture over the top of the oats.
5. Bake uncovered for about 35-40 minutes, until oats are tender and the mixture is set.
6. Serve immediately with a splash of milk, or cool, then cover and refrigerate to reheat later.

Recipe Notes

If the oatmeal firms up too much after chilling, just add a little milk or water to each portion before reheating to make it creamy again.
