This cozy dish is not only delicious but also brings the rich, spiced flavor of pumpkin pie right to your breakfast table.
Ingredients
Scale:
1 cup rolled oats
2 cups water or milk (dairy or non-dairy)
1/2 cup pumpkin puree
2 tablespoons brown sugar or maple syrup
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Chopped nuts or seeds (for topping, optional)
Instructions
In a medium saucepan, combine the rolled oats and water or milk. Bring it to a boil over medium heat.
Once boiling, reduce the heat to low and stir in the pumpkin puree, brown sugar or maple syrup, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt.
Cook for about 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the oats are tender and the mixture is creamy. If it gets too thick, add a little more water or milk to reach your desired consistency.
Remove from heat and stir in the vanilla extract. Let it sit for a minute to thicken further.
Serve warm, topped with your choice of chopped nuts or seeds for added texture and nutrition.
