These looks delicious! We’re on a pumpkin/apple kick too so this is a perfect recipe for us!
Do you use rolled oats not quick cook? And does this freeze well?
I havenāt tried it with rolled oats, and I havenāt tried freezing it. If you try, let us know how it goes! Iām sure it would work fine, it would just change the texture a bit. This recipe is supposed to be gooey so it isnāt important for the oats to be absorbent like in my flourless baked goods. Hope that helps
Hi Katie – I love your recipes! I may not be doing the math quite right, but if this recipe is four servings, I don’t think it adds up to a full protein or full fruit serving if folliowing the BLE program, correct?
Hi! Thatās correct, youāll need to complete the protein serving with nuts or yogurt as a topping. To complete the fruit serving, you can top with some diced apples or eat some extra fruit on the side.
These are absolutely delicious! Iām making them for Christmas breakfastā¦ This is my second time making them. Canāt wait to eat them! My kids are excited too!
Yay! So happy to hear that Carolee, Merry Christmas! š

These are wonderful! Has anyone tried it with unsweetened applesauce instead of pumpkin? I donāt always have pumpkin on hand, but applesauce (fresh when possible) is a staple.
Thank you for your feedback Thelma! I’m sure it would work well, if you try it let us know!
