How to Make Pecan Pie Baked Oatmeal

Have all the ingredients ready? Now it’s time to start making this delicious breakfast delight.

Start by preheating your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Then, coat the bottom and sides of your baking dish with cooking spray. We recommend using an 8- to 9-inch square baking dish for this recipe.

While the oven is heating up, you can start making the baked oatmeal mixture by whisking the eggs, milk, and vanilla extract in a large bowl. Add the rolled oats, salt and cinnamon, and mix all the ingredients together. Pour the mixture into the baking dish and bake for 10 minutes. You’ll put it back in later with the pecan pie topping.

To make the topping, mix the butter, brown sugar and maple syrup in a saucepan over medium heat. Make sure to whisk the entire time! It will thicken after about a minute, and that’s when you’ll stir in the pecans.

Remove the oatmeal mixture from the oven after the 10 minutes are up and spread the pecan topping all over it using a spatula. Return the pecan pie oatmeal to the oven and bake for another 15 minutes, until the top is golden. Take it out of the oven and let it cool down for 5 minutes before serving.
