Recipe type: Breakfast
Serves: 4-6 servings
Ingredients
4 Tbsp. unsalted butter
2 Tbsp. maple syrup
2½ tsp. vanilla
½ cup pumpkin butter
3 cups old-fashioned rolled oats
½ tsp. salt
1½ tsp. ground cinnamon
½ tsp. ground nutmeg
¼ tsp. ground cloves
1 cup pecan halves
Instructions
Preheat oven to 350F.
Melt the butter in a small, light-colored pan. Continue cooking the butter until it starts to brown. When it's golden brown, remove from heat and immediately stir in the maple syrup and vanilla. (Careful: adding the liquid may cause the butter to spatter.)
Whisk in the pumpkin butter until smooth.
In a medium bowl, stir together the oats, pecans salt, and spices. Pour the pumpkin butter mixture over and stir until the oats and nuts are well-coated.
Spread on a baking sheet lined with parchment and bake about 30 minutes, stirring halfway through.
Cool completely and store in an airtight container.
