Ingredients
  

For the Base
  • 2 cups Water Substitute with milk for a creamier texture.
  • 1 cup Pumpkin Puree Canned or homemade.
  • 2 tablespoons Maple Syrup Adjust to taste or substitute with honey or agave.
  • 1 pinch Salt Enhances flavor.
  • 1 teaspoon Pumpkin Pie Spice Can be swapped for gingerbread spice.
For the Oats
  • 1 cup Large Flaked Oats Rolled oats can be used if preferred.
  • 1 cup Milk of Choice Any non-dairy option works for dairy-free versions.

Equipment

  • Medium-sized saucepan

Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. In a medium-sized saucepan, combine water, pumpkin puree, maple syrup, salt, and pumpkin pie spice. Whisk together over medium heat until the mixture is smooth and begins to lightly bubble, about 3-5 minutes.
  2. Stir in the large flaked oats into the bubbling mixture. Bring to a gentle simmer, cooking for approximately 7 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  3. Pour in your milk of choice and stir to combine. Simmer for an additional 2 minutes, allowing the oatmeal to become creamier.
  4. Remove from heat and taste the oatmeal. Stir in more maple syrup if a sweeter finish is desired. Let it sit for 5 minutes.
  5. Spoon the pumpkin spice oatmeal into bowls and top with your favorite toppings like nut butter, fresh fruit, or granola.
