Pumpkin Pecan Oatmeal Cups

Of all the mamas I’ve worked with, almost every single one has noted breakfast as THE hardest meal to prepare (usually for them!), aside from dinner. This is where I recommend prepping something easy ahead so that breakfast is a no-brainer! So why not whip up a quick batch of these maple sweetened pumpkin pecan oatmeal cups for a quick and easy on the go breakfast to start the week feeling less-stressed?

They’re kind of like having a hearty bowl of oatmeal- but one you can hold in your hand and eat in the drop-off line… not that I recommend that, but you know- you’ve gotta do what you’ve gotta do, mama!

1/4 tsp sea salt

1/4 cup ground flax

1/4 cup chopped pecans (more for topping)

3/4 cup milk of choice

Instructions

1. Pre-heat oven to 375.

2. In a medium bowl, whisk oats, baking powder, spices, salt, flax and pecans.

3. In a large bowl, whisk milk, pumpkin, maple syrup, vanilla and eggs until well combined.

4. Pour dry ingredients into wet and mix well. Mixture will be very wet.

5. Divide into 12 muffin cups- I prefer silicone to avoid sticking. If silicone is not available, use paper liners.

6. Bake for 25-30 minutes, until set.
