Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Rolled oats
- 1 cup Milk (or milk alternative)
- 1 cup Water
- 0.5 cup Pumpkin puree
- 2 tablespoons Maple syrup
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoon Ground nutmeg
- 0.25 teaspoon Ground ginger
- 1 pinch Ground cloves
- 0.5 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 pinch Salt
- 2 tablespoons Chopped nuts (optional, e.g., pecans or walnuts)
- 2 tablespoons Dried cranberries or raisins (optional)
Instructions
In a medium saucepan, combine the rolled oats, milk, and water over medium heat.
Stir in the pumpkin puree, maple syrup, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, cloves, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt.
Bring the mixture to a gentle boil, then reduce the heat to low and simmer. Stir frequently to prevent sticking.
Cook for about 7-10 minutes, until the oats are tender and the mixture reaches your desired consistency.
If the oatmeal becomes too thick, add a splash of milk or water to loosen it to your liking.
Remove the saucepan from heat and let the oatmeal sit for a minute to cool slightly.
Serve warm, topped with chopped nuts, dried cranberries, or any additional toppings you prefer.
