Bake up this quick & cozy Gluten-Free Maple Pumpkin Baked Oatmeal recipe for a delicious autumn breakfast! Vegan, top-8 allergy-free, & baked right in a cast iron skillet with a crisp maple sugar top!
It’s beginning to look (smell) a lot like PUMPKIN season! You all know I’m a summer girl, but the only redeemable thing about Fall is the fact that we can go pumpkin crazy and it being 100% socially acceptable. With all the pumpkin comes the cozy hot breakfasts, warming spices, and piping hot cups of coffee (okay, and those big comfy sweaters top my “redeemable list” too!)
Grabbing some seasonal novelty goodness, I was able to brew up some pumpkin spice coffee right at home, bringing those cozy feelings of Fall, pumpkin, warming spices, and coffee all together in one delicious sip! I’m thinking this will be my way to pep myself up on a slow, chilly autumn morning for the rest of the season. But, a cozy cup of coffee in hand needs a little nourishment to go along with it, don’t you think?
Ah, yes, why not get out that mini cast iron skillet (the epitome of cozy comfort) and bake up a delicious gluten-free maple pumpkin baked oatmeal for breakfast! I’m pretty sure this combination of home-brewed pumpkin spice coffee and baked maple pumpkin oatmeal is guaranteed to get everyone (even me) a bit more excited for Fall 😉
While your coffee is brewing you can whip up this oatmeal so fast! Gluten-free quick oats, pumpkin, spices, maple syrup, pumpkin seed butter, all mixed together and spread in the skillet, then topped with some pure maple sugar to create a delicious crisp top! It’s vegan, allergy-free, and just the right amount to share with a loved one. I guess that makes this an even more perfectly cozy breakfast set up. Grab your coffee, your baked oatmeal, and someone who makes you feel warm and fuzzy inside!
Gluten-Free Maple Pumpkin Baked Oatmeal
- 1 ½ Cups Gluten-Free Quick Oats
- ½ Cup Pure Pumpkin Puree
- 2 TB Pumpkin Seed Butter
- 2 TB Pure Maple Syrup (plus more for topping, optional)

- Preheat the oven to 400°F.
- In a large mixing bowl combine all ingredients, except the maple sugar, and mix together until you get a thick oatmeal batter.
- Spread the oatmeal mixture into a greased 6 inch cast iron skillet* and smooth out the top.
- Sprinkle the top with the maple sugar and place in the oven to bake for 15 minutes.
- Remove and eat from the skillet or cut and serve on plates with a drizzle of maple syrup if desired.
If this doesn’t get you ready to celebrate Fall, I don’t know what will! Go stock up on some pumpkin spice coffee, turn on those ovens, and cook up one delicious autumn breakfast that will warm the soul inside and out! Your kitchen is going to be smelling like one upscale coffee house and bakery combined!
So tell me:
+ What gets your excited about Fall?

Baked oatmeal in a cast iron skillet?! Yes please! This looks delicious!
That cast iron magic!
YUM! You know how much I love cooking in cast-iron skillets, add that to pumpkin spice oatmeal and I’m in breakfast heaven.
We only cast iron cook here!
Very simple and delicious, I am sure that adults and children love it! All those spices look amazing and I bet this sweet is very fragrant. Thanks for sharing!
Yes, I think everyone will enjoy! Thank you!
We’ve been having oatmeal for breakfast every single morning since school has started this year. I’ve just been making it on the stove top but baking it would be a game changer and I’m sure my boys would love it just the same. Definitely going to give this one a try. Thanks for the idea, Rebecca!
It would be great as a make-ahead time savor!
I keep seeing baked oatmeal but I’ve never tried it. I love that you did it with oatmeal and used a cast iron skillet. Trying!
It is such a great way to cook it!
This is such a good way to prepare oatmeal – will be trying out this recipe for sure, so thank you for sharing 🙂 Also, did I mention your photography is stunning? Oatmeal and food photo goals right here 😉
O, thank you SO much!! That means a lot, Maria!
I’m stocking up on pumpkin this weekend when I hit the grocery store so I can eat it with pretty much every meal. This is awesome for breakfast!
Haha, yes! Stock up!!! I always make sure to have a can on hand (year-round)!
Pumpkin oatmeal…awesome for this fall!!!
Yup, of course!
We are always looking for lots of different oatmeal breakfast ideas.
And for this one I get to use my beloved skillet!! Thanks Rebecca. Yum!!!
Woohoo!!! Skillets make it THAT much better 😉
I need to try this. I am in love with baked oatmeal and this pumpkin version sounds delicious.
Your next breakfast!
Oh, I need to make this ASAP! I just love oatmeal in the fall and winter. Plus it really is the season for pumpkin everything! I love the idea of baking the oatmeal. I can just imagine the texture. This also sounds like it would be great as an overnight oats recipe!
Baked oatmeal is something special!
Haha, overnight oats are too cold for fall comfort!
Well, it is still in the 90’s where I live, so I want all of these flavors right now, but it’s still too hot! I can’t wait to try either way!
Haha, I wish I was where you are then!
Filled with my favorite Fall flavors! Pinning!

This just screams fall! Delish!!
Thank you!
So cozy and perfect for breakfast! I am all about this!
