Author: Kim

Ingredients

  • 2 cups old-fashioned rolled oats, certified gluten-free oats, if desired
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
  • 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup canned pumpkin puree, not pumpkin pie filling
  • 1/4 cup pure maple syrup*
  • 1 1/2 cups fresh cranberries, divided
  • 1/2 teaspoon imitation maple flavor**
  • 1 cup unsweetened vanilla almond milk***
  • 1/4 cup pecan pieces, optional

Instructions 

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees and prepare 2 quart baking dish with cooking spray.
  • Place half of the berries on the bottom of the baking dish.
  • Combine all dry ingredients, except cranberries and nuts (if using). Add in all wet ingredients and stir into dry ingredients.
  • Evenly spoon pumpkin/oat mixture over cranberries in the baking dish.
  • Scatter the remaining berries and the nuts (if desired) over the top.
  • Bake for approximately 45 mins uncovered. Allow to cool about 10 mins before serving. Enjoy!

Notes

*honey works too, but is not vegan
**could use vanilla extract instead or omit
***any milk product works
-If you're not a fan of cranberries, feel free to substitute your favorite berry and you could even try 1 cup of mashed banana instead of the pumpkin puree.
-I enjoy my baked oatmeal served in a bowl combined with a splash of warm almond milk, a packet of stevia and a spoonful of almond butter. 🙂
