Simple Baked Pumpkin Oatmeal

I love oatmeal for breakfast and have been noticing several recipes out there for pumpkin oatmeal.  I figured it would be another fun way to enjoy pumpkin this season. So I decided to give this Baked Pumpkin Oatmeal a try.

This oatmeal itself isn’t extremely sweet so the addition of fresh chopped apple and dried cranberries on top helps to balance out the flavors.  Plus, I love the combo of the apple pumpkin, and cranberry.  It just screams fall.

I have to admit I like my oatmeal pretty sweet. So I did add a sprinkling of brown sugar on my serving of this baked pumpkin oatmeal.

  4. Do you think that this recipe could be made the night before to be baked in the morning? It sounds delicious and I’d love to try either way but I’m always looking for make-ahead options as morning are a bit… horrible. 😉

    1. I haven’t made this yet, but I would say try baking it ahead of time a warming it slightly in the morning in the microwave or toaster oven. If you mix the batter, but don’t bake the oatmeal will absorb the moisture.

  5. Yours looks beautiful! Glad you enjoyed the recipe. I agree, it’s not very sweet, we actually drizzle a little caramel sauce on top too. 😉
