    With this pumpkin pie spice baked oatmeal recipe, rolled oats are baked in the oven with a liquid concoction that has all of the flavors of a creamy, pumpkin spice latte. I even added instant espresso powder for a morning pick-me-up!

    🎛️ Baked Oatmeal Vs. Stovetop

    Baked oatmeal is quickly growing in popularity as more recipes are being shared in mainstream media. This method of cooking enables a nice firm and chewy consistency, with a golden, crispy exterior. Many people find this much more palatable than mushy stovetop oats.

    This recipe is the perfect solution for chilly mornings when you don’t want to spend a lot of time on breakfast prep. Without having to stand over a stovetop pot of oatmeal, you are free to continue your morning routine while this healthy breakfast bakes in the oven.

    🥧 Pumpkin Pie Spice Baked Oatmeal Ingredients

    Pumpkin spice oatmeal ingredients labeled.
    • rolled oats - Rolled oats are also known as old-fashioned oats. This recipe has also been tested with quick oats and they work well as a substitute.
    • vanilla oat milk - I use unsweetened. If you only have plain oat milk, you can add a touch of vanilla powder or extract. Just as fitting would be pumpkin seed milk.
    • pumpkin purée - This needs to be pure pumpkin purée without any added ingredients.
    • maple syrup - Or an alternative sweetener such as honey or agave nectar.
    • instant espresso powder (not pictured) - This isn't regular instant coffee; make sure it says espresso on the package. It has a more concentrated flavor.
    • pumpkin pie spice - You could also use homemade pumpkin spice syrup, but you might have to use less maple syrup if so.
    • salt (not pictured) - To enhance the flavor.
    • Garnishes: shelled pumpkin seeds and cinnamon powder

    *Check recipe card for ingredient amounts.

    📖 Recipe Tweaks

    • Milk Swap: I love oat milk in this recipe but feel free to swap it out for any milk of choice (dairy or non). Dairy milk and vanilla soy milk are great for adding in some additional protein. Several different types of nut milks are available to add unique flavor and nutrient profiles.
    • Caffeine or Not: If you aren’t a fan of the espresso flavor or you are serving it to kids, it can easily be omitted.
    • Add an Egg: You could also mix an egg into the ingredients before baking. Not only does this add protein, but it also acts as a binding agent to give the oatmeal a more casserole-like consistency.
    • Chocolate Addition: Adding a handful of chocolate chips to the mixture would be delicious.

    🥣 How to Make it

    Chef's Note: Optionally, you can drizzle the baked oatmeal with some maple syrup when serving.

    ✔️ Joss' Tips

    • Scale it easily. This meal could easily be scaled up and baked in a large casserole dish for an early morning gathering or work event. This warm and comforting dish is sure to be a crowd favorite and is easy to divide up and serve to several people.
    • Use a proper-sized baking dish. A 9"x9" or 8"x8" baking dish is ideal as it provides the right thickness for even cooking and without the risk of overflowing.
    • Grease the dish. Make sure to grease the dish or line it with parchment paper for easy removal and cleanup.
    • Let It cool slightly before serving. Let the baked oatmeal cool for about 5-10 minutes after removing it from the oven. This helps it set further and makes it easier to cut into squares.

    ❓ Recipe FAQs

    How do you store leftover pumpkin pie spice oatmeal?

    Leftovers can be kept in the refrigerator for a few days and reheated as needed. You may need to add in another splash of milk when reheating to keep the original consistency.

    Why is my baked oatmeal dry?

    You've either used too many oats are not enough milk. Stick to the amounts listed for the correct ratio.
