I am straight-up addicted to this comforting + warm breakfast! It has the perfect amount of sweetness and spice and the flavor and really just puts me in the fall spirit ☺️ I also love that you can make a big batch to share or to have for easy breakfasts for a few days.
This baked oatmeal comes together super quickly and is gluten-free, dairy-free, and low sugar.
I love making this recipe on Sunday’s because then I have breakfast ready for a few weekdays and it’s also delicious for snacks! My favorite is heating up a slice for breakfast in a bowl and then topping with Greek yogurt (for extra protein), sliced bananas, and paleo granola for some bonus healthy fat + crunch.
I usually keep these stored in the fridge but they also freeze perfectly in case you want to eat half the batch one week and the other half later! Just thaw in the fridge overnight or stick in the microwave from frozen for 30 seconds – 1 minute.
Pumpkin Spice Baked Oatmeal with an Almond Butter Glaze

- 2 tbsp coconut oil (melted + cooled)
- 2 tsp pumpkin spice
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp sea salt
For the almond butter glaze
- 2 tbsp almond butter
- 1 tbsp coconut oil
- 2 tbsp maple syrup
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350F and line an 8×8 baking dish with parchment paper and set aside.
- Mix all ingredients in a large bowl.
- Pour batter into baking dish and bake for 35-40 minutes.

I had some leftover pumpkin purée so I tried these. I just finished that first half batch (great road snacks on trip from Michigan to Florida) and went searching for the recipe to make more. This time I have steamed white pumpkin, curious to see if there’s any different flavor. I also have quick cook steel cut oats on hand and will try those. Did not have pumpkin spice but used typical blend of cinnamon nutmeg and cloves. I also cheated on the glaze, used just a little powdered sugar and water. I don’t think they even need the glaze.
Such a good idea to bring as car snacks! I haven’t tried using white pumpkin, but I think it will still work! Let me know how it goes 😊 I am sure they are just as delicious with the classic glaze! Thanks for sharing.
