Pumpkin Pie Oatmeal
I just found a way to have pumpkin pie for breakfast every day starting October 1st. This pumpkin pie oatmeal features the same two key ingredients used in pumpkin pie, so, yes, the flavor is *actually* there. You have to try it!
This Pumpkin Pie Oatmeal is
- Creamy and nostalgic.
- Made with actual pumpkin puree and pumpkin pie spice.
- Ready in 10 minutes.
- Easily customizable: use your favorite milk (dairy or non-dairy).
Ingredients for Pumpkin Pie Oatmeal
Milk. You can use your favorite dairy or non-dairy milk, any will work.
Oats. I use old-fashioned rolled oats for this recipe.
Pumpkin puree. The same one you’d use for actual pumpkin pie. You can use canned pumpkin puree or homemade (you can find the instructions for homemade puree down below). Do not use canned pumpkin pie filling, that is a different product.
Brown sugar, for sweetening. You can also use white sugar but I like the deeper flavor of brown sugar.
Pumpkin pie spice, again the same one you’d use for pumpkin pie.
How to make Pumpkin Pie Oatmeal From Real Pumpkin
Making your own pumpkin puree from scratch is very easy and convenient because you can freeze any leftovers in ready-to-use portions for breakfasts and drinks like pumpkin spice latte.
You will need a small butternut squash (about 2-2.5 lbs or about 1 kg). To cut the pumpkin open, cut one side from the stem down to the bottom and repeat on the opposite side, then pull the two halves apart using your hands.
Cut into wedges, remove any seeds or stringy parts of the pumpkin, then place on a baking sheet and bake until soft (15-20 minutes), finally remove the peel and blend until smooth. Store in the refrigerator for up to a week or in the freezer for up to 3 months.
HAPPY PUMPKIN SZN!! I hope you’ll love this easy pumpkin breakfast idea as much as I do!
