Ingredients:

  • 1 cup Rolled Oats (old-fashioned, not instant)
  • 1 cup Milk (dairy or non-dairy)
  • 1/2 cup 100% Pumpkin Purée
  • 2 Tbsp Maple Syrup (or desired sweetener)
  • 1 Tbsp Chia Seeds
  • 1 tsp Pumpkin Pie Spice Mix
  • 1 tsp Vanilla Extract
  • Pinch Fine Sea Salt

Instructions:

  1. In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the rolled oats, chia seeds, pumpkin pie spice, and the pinch of sea salt. Set aside.
  2. In a separate container, whisk together the pumpkin purée, milk, maple syrup, and vanilla extract until completely smooth and there are no pumpkin lumps remaining.
  3. Pour the wet mixture over the dry ingredients. Stir vigorously for 1–2 minutes until the oats are fully coated and the mixture is uniform.
  4. Divide the mixture evenly between two airtight jars or containers. Seal and place them immediately in the refrigerator.
  5. Allow the oats to chill and set for a minimum of 6 hours, or ideally, overnight (8 hours).
  6. Before serving, check the consistency. If it is too thick, stir in 1–2 tablespoons of milk until the desired spoonable consistency is achieved.
  7. Garnish with desired toppings (such as pecans or a dollop of yogurt) and serve straight from the fridge.
