Instructions

Place the oats, chia seeds, maple syrup, pumpkin, pumpkin pie spice and almond milk into a medium bowl and stir until well combined. Cover with plastic wrap and chill overnight.

The next morning, preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Grease an 8×8" baking dish with cooking spray. Remove the oats from the refrigerator and stir well, then pour into the prepared baking dish. Optional: allow the oats to come to room temperature for 30 minutes prior to baking as cold oats take longer to bake.

Bake for 30 minutes, then top with the pecans. Bake another 20-30 minutes or until the oats are set. Cover the oats with aluminum foil if they begin to brown too quickly.

Remove from heat and cool slightly on a wire rack before cutting into squares. Serve warm and enjoy!

Tips & Tricks (5)

Toast Your Steel Cut Oats First 🔥
Dry-toast the steel cut oats in a skillet for 2-3 minutes before adding liquid to deepen their nutty flavor and improve texture in the finished bake.
Use Full-Fat Liquid for Creaminess 🥛
Replace half the almond milk with heavy cream or full-fat coconut milk to create a rich, creamy texture that prevents dryness during overnight storage.
Bloom Your Spices in Butter ✨
Toast your homemade pumpkin pie spice in melted butter for 30 seconds before mixing into the oat mixture to unlock and amplify the warming spice notes.
Prep in Individual Ramekins 🍲
Divide the mixture into individual baking dishes instead of one large pan for better portion control, more even baking, and easier meal-prep storage.
Add Pecans Mid-Bake for Crunch 🥜
Sprinkle pecan halves on top halfway through baking (around 20 minutes) rather than mixing them in to maintain their crispy texture and prevent them from becoming soggy.
