Recently, I posted about baked pumpkin oatmeal. It’s quickly become a favorite of mine. Then I ran out of pumpkin and forgot to get some more. However, I did have some applesauce and decided to give it a try. It turned out really well and now I know I can substitute the pumpkin for other fruit or sweet vegetables I have available. I’m thinking maybe mashed banana or baked sweet potato?
The ratio is 1/3 oats, 1/3 plant milk, and 1/3 pureed fruit. You can also feel free to play with additions like berries, dried fruit, nuts, etc.
