I was restless and bored one night and couldn't sleep so I decided to bake something. After raiding the kitchen this is what I threw together. I love that it has a mild sweetness and isn't over powering. So, if you prefer really sweet things I suggest you add more sugar. I also love how light these are. Ingredients:

1 cup quick oats |
1 teaspoon baking powder |
1 cup chocolate chips |
1 tablespoon and 1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice (separated) |

3. In a medium bowl whisk together pumpkin, teaspoon of pumpkin pie spice, egg, milk, and sugar until smooth.
