How To Make Pumpkin Baked Oatmeal

Mix the wet ingredients together in a medium bowl. Then, add in the dry ingredients. Mix the batter and pour the batter into a greased 8×8 inch 2 quart pan.

Top the batter with optional nuts and brown sugar or your favorite baked oatmeal toppings. Lastly, bake the oatmeal at 350 degrees for 30-35 minutes or until the top is golden brown. Serve the pumpkin baked oatmeal warm with your favorite oatmeal toppings. I like to drizzle warm maple syrup over the top, but other toppings like almond butter and coconut or greek yogurt are wonderful options too!
