Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup rolled oats
- 1 cup water
- 1 cup milk (dairy or non-dairy)
- 0.5 cup pumpkin puree
- 2 tablespoons maple syrup
- 0.5 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 0.25 teaspoon ground ginger
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons chopped pecans (optional, for topping)
- 2 tablespoons whipped cream or coconut cream (optional, for topping)
Instructions
In a medium saucepan, combine the rolled oats, water, and milk. Stir to mix well.
Place the saucepan over medium heat and bring the mixture to a gentle simmer, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking.
Once the liquid begins to bubble, stir in the pumpkin puree, maple syrup, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, and salt. Mix thoroughly to distribute the spices and pumpkin puree evenly.
Continue to cook over medium heat for about 5–7 minutes, stirring frequently, until the oatmeal thickens and the oats are soft.
Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the vanilla extract.
Divide the oatmeal into two bowls. Top with chopped pecans and a dollop of whipped cream or coconut cream if desired.
Serve warm and enjoy your cozy, pumpkin pie-inspired breakfast!
