Ingredients
Dry Mix
1 1/2cupsold fashioned oatmeal
1/2cupdried cranberries,plus more for topping
1tspbaking powder
1/2tspground cinnamon
1/4tspground allspice
dash of ground cloves and powdered ginger
1/4tsptable salt
Wet Mix
2cupswhole milk
2tbspunsalted butter,melted and cooled
1tbspvanilla extract
1largeegg
2tbspmaple syrup
1cupcooked pumpkin
Streusel
1/2cupchopped pecans
2tbspbrown sugar
2tbspalmond flour,or all-purpose flour
2tbspunsalted butter,softened
Instructions
Preheat oven to 350F. Get out a 9x9 inch or similar sized casserole dish.
Mix together all the dry mix ingredients in a medium bowl.
For the wet mix, whisk together the milk, butter, vanilla, egg, and maple syrup in a large bowl. Mash the pumpkin with a fork so it's still a little chunky. Stir the mashed pumpkin into the wet mix.
In a small bowl rub together the streusel ingredients until everything is well mixed and the flour is coated with butter.
Add the dry mix to the wet mix. Stir to combine. Pour the oatmeal mixture into the casserole dish. Top with the streusel. Sprinkle some more dried cranberries over it if desired.
Bake the oatmeal for 30-35 minutes, or until most of the liquid is absorbed and the oatmeal is puffed and golden.
Serve topped with maple syrup and extra milk or yogurt if desired.
Choosing a Squash: Any of the sweeter, orange-fleshed winter squashes or sweet potatoes would work well in this dish. This is a great recipe to use up leftover roasted squash.
Doubling: The recipe doubles well. Use a 9x13 dish to bake and double check the center before you take it out of the oven, since it may need a few more minutes.
Canned Puree: If using canned pumpkin puree (which is thinner than homemade), bake the oatmeal for 15 minutes first, then add the streusel and continue with the recipe.
