Ingredients
- Rolled oats
- Pumpkin puree
- Milk (dairy, almond, oat, or any preferred milk)
- Chia seeds
- Maple syrup or honey
- Pumpkin pie spice (cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, cloves)
- Pinch of salt
Instructions
- Combine rolled oats, pumpkin puree, and milk in a bowl. Mix until smooth and creamy.
- Add maple syrup, pumpkin pie spice, and a pinch of salt. Stir well to blend the flavors.
- Let the mixture sit for a few minutes to allow oats to soak up the pumpkin flavor.
- Portion the mixture into mason jars or airtight containers for easy storage.
- Refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight to allow the oats to soften and flavors to meld.
Notes
- Storage: Keeps fresh for up to 5 days in the fridge. For longer storage, freeze individual portions for up to 3 months. Thaw overnight in the fridge before serving.
- Consistency Tip: Adjust milk amount for desired thickness. Add more milk if oats are too thick, or reduce it if they are too thin.
- Custom Pumpkin Spice: Mix 2 parts cinnamon, 1 part nutmeg, 1 part ginger, and ½ part cloves for a homemade pumpkin spice blend. Add cardamom or black pepper for extra depth.
