📝 Instructions

Prepare the pumpkin puree. In a large bowl, beat the eggs with the maple sugar until the mixture is frothy. Add the pumpkin puree and mix well. Gradually incorporate the oat milk while stirring constantly. Add the cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger and salt. Mix well. Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F). Spread the crumbled biscuits in the bottom of an ovenproof dish. Pour the pumpkin mixture over the cookies. Bake for approximately 45 minutes or until the pudding is set. Allow to cool before serving.

Note regarding oat milk : The consistency of oat milk can vary depending on the brand. If you find your mixture is too thick after adding the oat milk, add it in small amounts until you reach the desired consistency. A guideline for the right consistency is that the mixture should be slightly thicker than pancake batter, but not as dense as cake batter.
