Pumpkin Pie Breakfast Bake
Serves 6-8
Ingredients:
2 cups leftover pumpkin pie cut into 1" chunks
2 cups old fashion rolled oats
1 tsp cinnamon
1/2 tsp nutmeg
Pinch of ground clove
2 large eggs
2 cups half and half
1 tsp kosher salt
1 tsp vanilla extract
1/4 cup maple syrup (grade b- not pancake syrup)
Directions:
Preheat your oven to 365F and grease a 9x13" casserole dish.
Chop pie into 1-inch chunks (don't worry if it gets messy we are going to mix this all together). In a large bowl add the oats, nutmeg, cloves, cinnamon, and salt- mix together. In another bowl add all of the wet ingredients together and mix until it's well blended.
Add the mixed wet ingredients to the dry and stir until incorporated. Now fold in the pie pieces until just incorporated trying to leave them in recognizable chunks.
Pour into casserole dish and bake until set- approximately 40 to 45 minutes.
You can also refrigerate the mix overnight to meld the flavors and hydrate the oats.
Serve with vanilla bean ice cream for an extra treat!
