* 1 cup old fashioned oats, not quick cook
* 1 Tbs whole flax seeds, optional
* 2 1/2 Tbs brown sugar, packed
* 1/2 tsp cinnamon
* 1/4 tsp allspice
* 1/8 tsp nutmeg
* 1/2 tsp lemon zest
* 1/4 tsp salt
* 1/2 tsp vanilla
* 2 tsp butter, softened
* 3/4 cup pumpkin puree
* 3/4 cup milk
Topping:
* 1/4 cup pecans, chopped
* 2 tsp butter, softened
* 1 Tbs brown sugar
Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Grease 4 individual sized ramekins. Set aside.
Combine the oats through salt in a medium sized bowl. Stir well. In a separate bowl, combine the vanilla, butter, pumpkin, and milk. Whisk thoroughly. Pour the pumpkin mixture into the oats. Stir until combined.
Divide mixture evenly between 4 individual sized ramekins. Place ramekins on a baking sheet (this makes it easier to move in and out of the oven.). Bake at 375 degrees F for 10 minutes.
Meanwhile, combine the ingredients for the topping: chopped pecans, butter, and brown sugar. After the oatmeal has baked for 10 minutes, remove and divide topping mixture evenly between the ramekins. Bake and additional 7 minutes. Cool for 5 minutes before serving. Top with a splash of milk and raisins, if desired.
