Description
Welcome the crisp autumn air with these creamy, delicious Pumpkin Spice Overnight Oats. A perfect make-ahead breakfast that tastes like fall in a jar, transforming busy mornings into a delightful autumnal treat. Embrace ease and flavor with this cozy, satisfying meal.
Ingredients
1/2 cup rolled oats (old-fashioned)
1 cup unsweetened almond milk (or milk of choice)
1/4 cup pumpkin puree (not pumpkin pie filling)
1 tablespoon chia seeds
1 tablespoon maple syrup (or to taste)
1/2 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
Pinch of salt
Optional toppings: chopped nuts, granola, a drizzle of maple syrup, whipped cream
Instructions
In your jar or container, add the rolled oats, almond milk, pumpkin puree, chia seeds, maple syrup, pumpkin pie spice, vanilla extract, and salt.
Stir everything together until well combined. Make sure there are no clumps of pumpkin puree or chia seeds stuck to the bottom.
Secure the lid on your jar or container and place it in the refrigerator. Let it chill for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the oats and chia seeds to absorb the liquid and thicken.
In the morning, give your oats a good stir. If they seem too thick, add a splash more milk. Add your favorite toppings and enjoy.
Notes
Store your prepared overnight oats in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days. This makes them perfect for batch prepping a week’s worth of breakfasts!
Feel free to use any milk you prefer – dairy milk, soy milk, oat milk, or coconut milk all work wonderfully and will subtly alter the flavor.
Adjust the maple syrup to your personal preference. You can also use other sweeteners like honey or agave nectar.
If you don’t have pumpkin pie spice, you can create your own blend with cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, and cloves.
