Ingredients
- 3 packets Kodiak Maple & Brown Sugar Peak Oatmeal Packets
- 2/3 cup butternut squash purée
- 1/4 cup maple syrup
- 1/2 cup almond butter
- 1/4 cup milk
- 1/2 teaspoons cinnamon
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 1-2 tablespoons milk
Directions
- Preheat the oven to 350° F. Line a 8x8” baking pan with parchment paper.
- Place the contents of the oatmeal packets in a mixing bowl along with the butternut squash purée, maple syrup, almond butter, milk, and cinnamon. Mix until well combined.
- Spoon the mixture into the prepared baking pan and carefully spread out until evenly distributed and smooth on top.
