My kitchen smells like there is a pumpkin pie baking this morning and on the last day of September, that will take me nicely into all things fall. In my search for another variety of one of my favorite healthy breakfasts ever - baked oatmeal, I pinned this recipe for Pumpkin Pie Baked Oatmeal, hoping it would taste as delicious as it sounded. When I was putting it together, and adding in the aromatic spices; cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger and cloves, I had a good feeling about this one. As always, for my diabetic diet, I substituted Splenda brown sugar for the regular brown sugar, with no difference in the taste.
The flavor was as I hoped; just like eating a slice of pumpkin pie for breakfast. All it needs is a big dollop of whipped cream :-)
Have a great start to your week! I will be busy on my kitchen update, making decisions and preparing the walls for paint. I also hope to at least make a start on my fall decorating. This oatmeal will be the perfect thing to give me energy on my busy mornings.
