Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Old-fashioned oats
- 1 cup Pumpkin puree (unsweetened)
- 4 cups Unsweetened almond milk
- 1 cup Water
- 2 tablespoons Maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 2 teaspoons Ground cinnamon
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground nutmeg
- 0.25 teaspoon Ground ginger
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 cup Chopped pecans or walnuts (optional)
- 0.5 cup Chopped fresh fruit or dried cranberries (optional garnish)
Instructions
Spray the inside of your slow cooker with a light coat of non-stick cooking spray to prevent sticking.
In the slow cooker, combine the old-fashioned oats, pumpkin puree, almond milk, water, maple syrup, vanilla extract, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, and salt. Stir well to ensure everything is mixed evenly.
Set the slow cooker on low heat and cook the oatmeal for 7-8 hours, or until the oats are tender and the mixture is creamy. Stir occasionally if possible to prevent sticking.
Once cooked, give the oatmeal a good stir. Taste and adjust sweetness if needed by adding a touch more maple syrup.
Serve warm. If desired, top with chopped pecans or walnuts for crunch and garnish with fresh fruit or dried cranberries for extra sweetness and nutrition.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. Reheat in the microwave or on the stovetop with a splash of almond milk to restore creaminess.
