Notes
- Make Ahead Instructions: The oatmeal can be made stored in the refrigerator for up to 1 week. This is the perfect breakfast meal prep!
- Oats: If needing this recipe to be gluten-free, use certified gluten-free oats.
- Milk: Any type of milk can be used— I prefer to use oat or almond milk.
- Pumpkin Puree: This recipe calls for pure pumpkin puree, NOT pumpkin pie filling.
- Toppings: Add what you love or eat it plain— I usually top it with a splash of milk and nuts (either walnuts or pecans.)
- Microwave: Add the oats and milk to a microwave safe bowl. Microwave for ~2 minutes or until the oats are cooked through. Then, stir in the pumpkin puree, maple syrup, vanilla, pumpkin pie spice, cinnamon, cloves and allspice.
