Ingredient Notes
- Pumpkin: You’ll want to use plain canned pumpkin puree in this recipe – make sure you don’t grab pumpkin pie filling by mistake! You’ll have some pumpkin puree leftover since these only use ½ cup, so definitely check out the Pumpkin section of my recipe index for ideas on how to use the leftovers!
- Apples: I used Empire apples because that’s one of my favorite varieties to eat so I generally always have it on hand. Feel free to use your preferred type, but crisp apples work best in baking! Honey Crisp, Granny Smith Jonagold, Braeburn, or Fuji apples are all good choices.
- Pecans: You’ll want to use plain, unsalted chopped pecans for this recipe, which can usually be easily found in the baking aisle. I happed to have pecan halves in my cupboard, so I just chopped them up a bit to achieve the same thing.
- Pumpkin Pie Spice: This is pretty easy to find pre-mixed in the spices section in the baking aisle. I used Trader Joe’s brand because that’s what was in my cabinet, but you can use any brand you like. If you prefer to make your own spice blend, there are many recipes for pumpkin pie spice online! You’ll generally need cinnamon, ground ginger, nutmeg, allspice, and cloves.
- Oats: I always use Old Fashioned Oats in my baked oatmeal recipes and haven’t tried them with any other type. I always have a big container of these in my pantry for baked oatmeal!
- Alternative Sweeteners: I haven’t personally tried making these using a zero-calorie sweetener in place of the brown sugar, but I feel that it would work out just fine. Just make sure the sweetener you’re using has a 1:1 substitution ratio with brown sugar so that the sweetness level isn’t off.
