If you’re looking for an easy breakfast recipe that’s full of fall flavor, this baked pumpkin oatmeal makes a delicious addition to any morning. Spiced with cinnamon and nutmeg and drizzled with vanilla glaze, it can be pulled together with just a few minutes of hands-on time . . . or made in advance to nosh on throughout the week.

Something about this recipe makes ordinary mornings feel a little more cozy and warm. Maybe it’s the pumpkin puree that gives it a chewy, creamy texture that’s moist but firm enough to cut into bars. Maybe it’s the warming spices or vanilla. Whatever it is, it’s definitely one of our favorite autumn-inspired additions to the breakfast routine. I like to serve it alongside this roasted veggie breakfast hash – the blend of sweet and savory is so satisfying!

Instructions

To make the pumpkin oatmeal:

  • Preheat the oven to 375°F.
  • Prepare an 8x8 baking dish by greasing with butter, coconut oil, or palm shortening.
  • Place dry ingredients (oats, baking powder, pumpkin spice and dates/raisins) in a large bowl. Stir to combine.
  • In another bowl, whisk together the milk, pumpkin puree, eggs, coconut oil/butter, 1/2 cup maple syrup and  2 teaspoons vanilla.
  • Pour the wet ingredients in with oat mixture and stir until well-combined.
  • Pour the batter into the prepared 8x8 baking dish.
  • Bake in the preheated oven at 375 F for about 30-35 minutes, or until center is set. Let cool for 5 to 10 minutes.

To make the glaze topping:

  • Add the coconut butter, honey, water, and vanilla to a small pan.
  • Place over low heat and stir constantly until the texture is smooth and spreadable, adding more water if necessary.
  • When the pumpkin oatmeal has cooled a little, drizzle the glaze over the top, then slice and serve.
