Pumpkin Baked Oatmeal



Oh.

My.

Word.

I have posted recipes for baked oatmeal before, but this one, hands down, takes the cake!

Especially with the fact that it is turning fall outside and the weather is chilly, and I start thinking of things I can enjoy with the almighty can of pumpkin!

This simple recipe is sure to be a hit and will hit every comfort spot you have on a cold morning. I made mine the night before and threw it in the fridge so that I could just wake up and pop it in the oven.

Baked Pumpkin Oatmeal

3 cups quick cooking oats
½ cup brown sugar
1 cup milk
2 tablespoons butter
2 eggs
2 teaspoons baking powder
¾ teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons vanilla
½ teaspoon cinnamon
¾ cup canned pumpkin
¼ cup brown sugar (for the top)
In a large bowl mix together all ingredients except the ¼ cup brown sugar for the top.

Spread into a greased 9×13 pan.

Sprinkle remaining ¼ cup brown sugar on top.

Bake at 350 for 20 minutes.

Serve with milk and enjoy!

Seriously. You have to make this!


Parents Review: Perfection.
Kids Review: Agreed.

  1. We loved having this for breakfast this morning! The only change I might make is to cut back on the sugar. I only added 1/3 C to the oatmeal, but I still felt like it was too sweet for my taste, so I'd probably only put 1/4 C in the next time. I loved the sugar sprinkled on the top though! And I think this would be a-mazing with walnuts too!
