There are so many flavor options too – you can can add a number of different fruits, nuts, and spices. I just happened to have a can of pumpkin and some cranberries in the pantry, so that’s what I went with. How about apple sauce instead of pumpkin, chopped apples and pecans, blueberries and almonds, raisins, pineapple, peaches? The list goes on and on.
Makes 8-16 servings*
Ingredients:
2 cups uncooked old fashioned rolled oats
1/3 cup packed brown sugar
1/3 cup dried cranberries
1 tsp baking powder
½ tsp ground ginger
½ tsp ground cinnamon
¼ tsp salt
1 1/2 cups low fat milk
1 tsp vanilla extract
3/4 cup canned pumpkin
1 Tbsp butter, melted and cooled slightly
1 large egg, beaten
Directions:
Preheat oven to 375°.
Combine the first 7 ingredients in a medium bowl. Combine the milk, vanilla, pumpkin, butter, and egg. Add milk mixture to oat mixture; stir well. Pour oat mixture into an 8-inch square baking dish coated with cooking spray. Bake at 375° for 25-30 minutes.
*I cut these into 16 pieces, and that works for kid-size portions, or even adullts that just want a little something to go with their coffee. You could cut into 8 or 12 larger pieces for a more substantial breakfast.
