The perfect oatmeal with all of the flavor of pumpkin pie
Ingredients
◦1/2 cup skim milk
◦1/2 cup water
◦1/3 cup Coach’s Oats
◦2 tablespoons light brown sugar
◦2 1/2 tablespoons 100% pure pumpkin( I did NOT use pumpkin pie filling)
◦1/4 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
◦1 tablespoon half and half
◦3 pecans, toasted (optional)
Instructions
1.In a small saucepan bring the milk and water to a boil.
2.Add the oats and reduce the heat to a simmer.
3.Cook oats for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
4.Remove from heat and allow to sit for 1 minute.
5.Stir in the brown sugar, pumpkin and pumpkin pie spice.
6.Pour into a bowl and top with half and half and pecans.
Notes
You could use pumpkin pie filling if that is all you have, you would just have to decrease the pumpkin pie spice.

I used oatmeal from Winco's,and only cooked it with water....made 6 servings so added the spices and sugar for 6 servings......topped with chopped pecans and milk not half and half just due to budgetary restrictions......cooking it with milk would use up milk I can't afford to use and half and half is just to expensive.....plus when I can get oatmeal for 0.65 a pound I would be silly to buy a name brand oatmeal....

Preheat oven to 375 F (190 C).
Topping: In bowl, combine oatmeal, flour, brown sugar, and salt. Stir in melted butter until crumbly. Set aside.

Apple Mixture: Place apples, in greased 9 inch (2L) square pan (When I double it, I use a 9X13 casserole). Sprinkle lemon juice and brown sugar.

Sprinkle crumb mixture evenly over apples.

Bake 30-40 minutes or until apples are tender and topping is golden brown.
