Here are some tips for making baked oatmeal.
I just mentioned that this recipe can easily be made vegan. Simply sub in for your egg an egg replacement such as one tablespoon of flaxseed meal and three tablespoons of water.
Here are some more helpful tips.
- I prefer to use old fashion (rolled) oats with this recipe rather than the quick variety. This is because old fashion oats will hold up better and add a better texture to the finished recipe.
- Make this recipe in individual servings. Simply use ramekins or a cupcake pan that is well prepped for nonstick. I also suggest adding an additional egg (or substitute) to help the servings hold up better. Also, check this often while baking as it will probably not have to bake as long.
- You can serve this recipe as is once you are ready to eat it. However, adding a bit of Greek Yogurt, sugar free pancake syrup, sugar free powdered sugar, or even some sugar free whipped topping can also make this recipe taste good!
Here is how to make pumpkin puree.
Preheat the oven to 325 and cut a small pumpkin in half (some folks like a sweet or baking pumpkin as they have more meat in them). Remove the stem, seeds, and pulp. Cover both of the halves with foil and bake for an hour or until tender. Then while the pumpkin meat is still warm, scoop it from the pumpkin and puree it until done. You can freeze this away for later use!!

- Preheat your oven to 350 and prep a casserole dish or similar baking dish for nonstick.
- In a mixing bowl, use a fork or whisk to mix together the oats, baking powder, and pumpkin pie spice. If you are using a granular sugar alternative, add it to the bowl as well. A liquid sugar alternative can be added to the next bowl.
