Baked Pumpkin Oatmeal (gluten free)
I found this recipe on a blog I follow. The Baking Beauties is a wonderful blog and a great resource for gluten free cooking. I have not discussed here, on Wives in Bloom, much about my Celiac diagnosis a year ago. I need to remedy that. In the meantime I wanted to introduce our readers to this wonderful blog where you will find a treasure of gluten free recipes and resource, and post my favorite Fall recipe from that site!
My camera had a fatal fall in Germany last month, so please forgive the absence of pictures. I must admit that I would have needed my camera settings for fast motions because this delicious baked pumpkin oatmeal did NOT last in our home! Enjoy!
