Ingredients
- 1/2 cup old-fashioned rolled oats
- 1/2 cup milk of choice (dairy, almond, or oat milk)
- 1/3 cup pumpkin puree (not pumpkin pie filling)
- 1 tablespoon chia seeds
- 1 tablespoon maple syrup or honey
- 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
- 1/8 teaspoon ginger
- Pinch of cloves
- Pinch of allspice
- Optional: 1 tablespoon protein powder
- Optional: 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Toppings: chopped pecans, granola, whipped cream
Instructions
- Combine oats, chia seeds, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, cloves, and allspice in a mason jar or container. Stir well.
- Pour in milk, pumpkin puree, and maple syrup or honey. Add vanilla extract or protein powder if using.
- Stir thoroughly until the mixture is evenly combined with no dry spots, and the oats have a consistent orange color.
- Seal the container and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight for best texture.
- Remove from refrigerator and stir before serving. Add your desired toppings, such as chopped pecans, granola, or whipped cream.
- Serve cold or let sit at room temperature for a few minutes before enjoying.
Notes
Substitute rolled oats with quick oats for a softer texture or use steel cut for extra chew. Replace maple syrup with agave or sugar-free syrup, and use any milk—including nondairy—for dietary preferences. Prepare the night before and store refrigerated for up to 3 days. To avoid blandness, make sure to stir thoroughly. If oats are too thick, simply add a splash of milk before serving. Adjust sweetness and spice levels to taste.
