Pumpkin Pie Baked Oatmeal
I struggle with breakfast on most days, and folks…the struggle is real. I have to keep my fridge stocked with easy – yet HEALTHY options or else I reach for that snack cake in the cabinet. Yes. A snack cake at 7:30 am. Making things like this yummy make ahead pumpkin pie baked oatmeal, on a weekend, allows me to have a delish breakfast every day through the week. Sometimes I double the recipe, in case I have to share with these pesky people that live in my house. Sigh.
I am a creature of habit. I actually enjoy having the same things for breakfast every day. This pumpkin pie baked oatmeal is FULL of healthy goodness. Lots of fiber, protein and vitamins. Anytime that I can take a recipe and make it healthier by swapping ingredients with something like Yoplait yogurt, I’ll do it. Usually, that recipe turns out better!!
This isn’t only the perfect fall breakfast idea….but it’s the perfect mid-afternoon snack for me too. Something that gets me through, till dinner time.

On days that I don’t have something like oatmeal, I usually reach for a yogurt and a handful of granola or fruit, like pineapple and strawberries. My faves! Yoplait has a lot of varieties that we really like. The husband likes the regular, while I’m a big fan of the Greek yogurts. As for the kiddo, Gogurt is perfect for lunchbags or as an after school snack. He gets off the school but STARVING and wants to eat as soon as he walks through the door. We always stock up on our Yoplait at Walmart.
What is your favorite way to snack with Yoplait?
