Ingredients

• 1.5 cups Rolled oats
• 0.25 cups All-purpose flour
• 2 tablespoons Brown sugar
• 4 tablespoons Unsalted butter, melted
• 2 cups Mashed cooked squash or canned pumpkin
• 2 large Eggs
• 0.75 cups Whole milk
• 0.25 cups Maple syrup
• 1 teaspoons Vanilla extract
• 1 teaspoons Ground cinnamon
• 0.5 teaspoons Ground ginger
• 0.25 teaspoons Ground nutmeg
• 0.25 teaspoons Salt

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9-inch pie dish lightly with butter or non-stick spray.

Step 2

Prepare the crust by combining rolled oats, flour, and brown sugar in a bowl. Add the melted butter and mix until it forms a crumbly dough.

Step 3

Press the oat mixture evenly into the prepared pie dish to form the crust, covering the bottom and slightly up the sides. Set aside.

Step 4

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the mashed squash or pumpkin, eggs, milk, maple syrup, and vanilla extract until smooth.

Step 5

Add the cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, and salt to the filling mixture and whisk again to combine.

Step 6

Pour the filling into the crust, smoothing the top with a spatula.

Step 7

Bake the pie in the preheated oven for 45-50 minutes, or until the filling is set and a knife inserted into the center comes out clean.

Step 8

Let the pie cool for at least 20 minutes before slicing. It can be served warm, at room temperature, or even chilled.

Step 9

For added breakfast appeal, serve with a dollop of plain Greek yogurt and a drizzle of additional maple syrup.
