Oatmeal, canned pumpkin, walnuts, and berries baked into a hearty, low-sugar breakfast. Pumpkin Spice Baked Oatmeal is real food, deliciously. 

I’ve been on a pumpkin roll.

After making Pumpkin Spice Seedy Granola, there was leftover pumpkin, so I stirred it into the milk mixture when I made Berry Baked Oatmeal. I was delighted with the creamy results and happy to have another pumpkin recipe!

In this recipe, as it bakes, the pumpkin rises to the top, so the oatmeal looks like pumpkin pie. Except for all the berries peaking through.

Rate it below and pin it for later, please and thank you!

Baked Pumpkin Oatmeal

This one bowl recipe is mix and pour. Mix all the ingredients together and bake.

  • 2 cups berries, frozen is fine
  • 2 cups old-fashioned oats
  • 1/2 cup walnuts
  • 1/4 quinoa, uncooked
  • 2 T ground flax seeds
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cloves
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground allspice
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1 1/2 cups milk
  • 1 cup pumpkin, or half a15-ounce can
  • 1/2 cup plain yogurt
  • 1 egg, beaten
  • 2 T maple syrup

Cook’s Note: There are several spices. You could substitute 3 teaspoons of pumpkin spice for all the spices in this baked oatmeal. But if you don’t have some on hand, you can leave them out. While they all add up to spiced deliciousness, you won’t miss a couple.

This recipe uses half a can of pumpkin. I freeze the remaining pumpkin in an airtight bag or container. When ready to bake oatmeal again, let it thaw before you begin cooking. Or check out more ideas on how to use leftover pumpkin.

Baked Pumpkin Oatmeal benefits

  • Pumpkin makes this baked oatmeal super creamy, like silky pumpkin pie. This humble squash’s color is one of its benefits. Beta carotene is responsible for the orange color and pumpkin is one of the richest sources of this powerful cell protector. Beta carotene is converted to vitamin A which helps your eyes and immune system. Go, Orange!
  • Pumpkin is a healthy vegetable. Canned pumpkin is convenient to keep on hand. Rich in potassium, it helps lower blood pressure. It’s also a good fiber source.
  • The spice blend adds complex flavors, making it just plain yummy. Plus the spice compounds help reduce inflammation and strengthen cells.
  • It’s pumped up with protein. Yogurt, milk, egg, quinoa, nuts and seeds are good protein sources.
  • This easy pumpkin recipe can be made ahead and keeps for a 4-5 days, making mornings ja whole lot easier.
  • Most of all, I love the that this is delish and nutrish. Fiber, protein, phytonutrients and healthy fats, all on the same spoon. That’s a LiveBest recipe!

  2. I’m not a huge reviewer but this just wasn’t good. Maybe if we he quinoa had been pre cooked? The entire dish tasted like toasted quinoa. Disappointed.
