Blueberry overnight oats are another favorite of mine too that I make all the time! These pumpkin pie overnight oats are so good and simple to make too! When I had my mom try it out she said, “Oh my gosh, it tastes like pumpkin cookie dough…where is the vanilla ice cream?!” This is a perfect breakfast to prepare the night before especially if your mornings seemed rushed. If you’re looking for more traditional style oatmeal recipes, check out my instant pot steel cut oats or snickerdoodle cookie oatmeal! These oatmeal breakfast bars and protein energy balls are two of my other favorite breakfasts to prep in advance. To make this healthy overnight oats recipe, here’s what you’ll need:
100% pure pumpkin puree: look for the 100% pure canned pumpkin, not pumpkin pie mix. Old-fashioned rolled oats: I recommend making these with the old-fashioned rolled oats. Most recipes use old-fashioned rolled oats, not the quick 1 minute because quick oats break down more quickly. Almond milk: Feel free to use regular cows milk, soy milk, etc. Plain Greek yogurt: I love adding a boost of protein with Greek yogurt and it helps make these oats ultra creamy. I think this recipe would be delicious with a pumpkin spice yogurt too! Pumpkin pie spice: cozy, warming spices are a must in this recipe! If you don’t have actual pumpkin pie spice you can easily whip up your own by combining nutmeg, cinnamon, cloves and ginger together. See recipe notes for specific measurements. Chia seeds: I love how the chia seeds thicken the texture of the oats. Plus, they add healthy fats! Ground flaxseed: ground flaxseed, or flaxseed meal, is an easy way to boost the fiber and add a nutritional punch to these oats.
