Ingredients needed

This healthy pumpkin spice latte baked oatmeal uses simple, wholesome ingredients. Here's what you'll need:

Eggs: A couple of eggs give the oatmeal a soft texture. You can substitute them for a vegan option.
Pumpkin Puree: Use pure pumpkin puree, not sweetened pie filling, as the binding ingredient.
Milk: Any non-dairy milk or cow's milk works well. Unsweetened vanilla almond milk is my favorite.
Coffee: Brew your favorite coffee for that delicious pumpkin spice latte flavor. You can absolutely omit the coffee for more milk if you prefer!
Maple Syrup: Sweetened naturally with maple syrup, but honey can also work.
Vanilla Extract: A splash adds great flavor.
Rolled Oats: Old-fashioned rolled oats are best, but gluten-free rolled oats can be used too.
Baking Powder: This helps the oats rise.
Pumpkin Pie Spice: Adds all the fall flavor!
Nuts: Walnuts, pecans, or almonds add a nice crunch; feel free to skip them if you have allergies.

How to make pumpkin baked oatmeal

Pumpkin baked oatmeal is incredibly easy to make and perfect for meal prep! Just mix all the ingredients in one bowl, top with pecans and chocolate chips, and bake. Here are the step-by-step instructions:

Step One: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a 9-inch square baking dish with cooking or avocado oil spray.

Step Three: In another bowl, combine the rolled oats, pumpkin pie spice, baking powder, and salt.

Step Five: Pour the mixture into the greased baking dish. Sprinkle some extra chocolate chips and pecans on top.

Step Six: Bake for 30 to 40 minutes, or until the top is golden and the center is set.

Enjoy warm with maple syrup, honey, or on its own!

My top recipe tips:

Stick with Rolled Oats: Quick oats can get mushy, and steel-cut oats won't soften enough. Rolled oats keep it just right.
Choose a Coffee You Love: Since the coffee flavor is noticeable, pick one you enjoy. Avoid instant coffee for the best flavor.
Bake at 375°F: This higher temperature gives a nice, crisp top while keeping the center perfectly cooked.
Skip the Coffee if You Prefer: Just add an extra ½ cup of almond or oat milk instead.
Make It Vegan: Swap out the eggs for two flax eggs (2 tablespoons ground flax + 5 tablespoons warm water; let it sit for 5 minutes).
Nut-Free Option: Simply leave out the nuts and use oat or cow's milk.
Freeze Leftovers: If you have extra, slice and freeze individual portions. Just thaw overnight and reheat for an easy breakfast on busy mornings!
