I really like oatmeal. Cold, hot, baked, plain, flavored...I like it all. During the summer, I enjoyed overnight oats frequently with blueberries. Now that it is Fall..I thought I would give pumpkin a try. I love pumpkin spiced oatmeal (cooked version), but haven't tried it cold. It is super simple, healthy, and delicious...b/c even thought it's Fall...the temps are still holding on to summer. We've had ONE cool morning!
Overnight Pumpkin Oats
1/4 steel cut oats
1/2 cup milk *I like unsweetened almond/coconut milk
1/4-1/2 cup pureed pumpkin
1 tsp. pumpkin pie spice (or to taste)
Add oats and milk in a jar or covered container overnight in the fridge. In the morning, mix in pumpkin and spice. Eat. That's it! Super simple.
Happy Friday :-)
I'm linking up at Eat at Home for Ingredient Spotlight - Pumpkin!
So that's all you do, is put it in the fridge and eat it cold?
ReplyDeleteCould you do the overnight oats and then just heat them up?
@Jenn - haha, that was my first reaction too! Yes, they are traditionally eaten cold. A lot of people add yogurt too. But yes, you couldn't definitely heat them up in the morning. I haven't tried that, but have heard of others doing it. Let me know if you try them out!
