Cozy Pumpkin Baked Oatmeal
A warm and hearty breakfast dish that tastes just like a slice of pumpkin pie.
recipesbynani.comThere is nothing quite like the smell of pumpkin and warm spices baking in the oven on a crisp morning. This baked oatmeal is a family favorite because it feels like a treat but keeps everyone full until lunchtime.
My best tip is to use real pumpkin puree rather than pumpkin pie filling. It allows you to control the sweetness perfectly with the maple syrup.

๐ก Tips
Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to four days. You can easily reheat individual portions in the microwave for thirty seconds. It also tastes lovely with a splash of cold milk or a dollop of yogurt on top.
