Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Rolled oats
- 0.5 cup Pumpkin puree
- 1.5 cups Unsweetened almond milk (or milk of choice)
- 1 tablespoon Maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon Pumpkin pie spice
- 0.5 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon Chia seeds (optional, for added nutrition)
- 1 pinch Pinch of salt

- 1 tablespoon Coconut flakes (optional, for topping)
Instructions
In a medium saucepan, combine the oats, almond milk, pumpkin puree, pumpkin pie spice, chia seeds (if using), and a pinch of salt.
Cook the mixture over medium heat, stirring frequently to prevent sticking, until the oats are tender and the mixture thickens, about 7-10 minutes.
Stir in the maple syrup and vanilla extract, adjusting the sweetness to your preference.
Once cooked, remove the oatmeal from the heat and divide it evenly between two bowls.
Top each serving with chopped pecans and coconut flakes, or any additional toppings you like, such as fresh fruit or a dollop of Greek yogurt.
Serve warm and enjoy this healthy, cozy breakfast!
