I tend to forget that there is always a little batter left over until I am in the midst of pie-making! When I discovered this yet again, I began to think about what I could do with the leftovers. I ended up preparing 4 mini gluten-free pumpkin pies. I simply placed the leftover batter atop some leftover oatmeal from that morning, then baked in the oven.<\/p>\n<p>They turned out pretty tasty, and I was inspired to consider other delights I could create using my pumpkin pie mixture. The result is this recipe for <em>Easy Dairy-Free Pumpkin Pie Oatmeal Bars<\/em>.
