Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Steel cut oats
- 1 cup Pumpkin puree
- 3 cups Unsweetened almond milk (or milk of choice)
- 1 cup Water
- 3 tablespoons Maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1.5 teaspoons Pumpkin pie spice
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 cup Chopped pecans or walnuts (optional, for topping)
- 0.25 cup Dried cranberries or raisins (optional, for topping)
Instructions
In a medium pot, combine the steel cut oats, almond milk, water, and salt.
Bring the mixture to a boil over medium heat, stirring occasionally to prevent oats from sticking to the bottom.
Reduce the heat to low and simmer for about 20-25 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the oats have softened and thickened but are still slightly chewy.
Once the oats are cooked, stir in the pumpkin puree, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and pumpkin pie spice. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until everything is fully combined and warmed through.
Remove the pot from heat and allow the oats to cool slightly before transferring them to an airtight container.
Refrigerate the oats overnight to allow the flavors to meld and deepen.
In the morning, portion out the desired amount into bowls. Warm the oats in the microwave or on the stovetop if desired.
Top with chopped pecans or walnuts and dried cranberries or raisins for added texture and flavor. Optionally, drizzle with a little extra maple syrup for sweetness.
Serve and enjoy your cozy, pumpkin-pie-inspired breakfast!
