Ingredients
Method
- Mix the Ingredients: In a bowl or jar, combine rolled oats, pumpkin puree, Greek yogurt, milk, chia seeds, and maple syrup. Stir well to mix.
- Add Flavor (Optional): Stir in pumpkin pie spice and vanilla extract for a more classic pumpkin pie taste.
- Refrigerate: Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight to let the oats soften and absorb the flavors.
- Serve & Enjoy: Stir before serving. Top with chopped nuts, granola, or an extra drizzle of maple syrup for added texture and sweetness.
Notes
- Adjust Sweetness: Start with 1 tablespoon of maple syrup and add more if needed. You can also use honey or a sugar-free sweetener as an alternative.
- Extra Pumpkin Flavor: Add ½ teaspoon of pumpkin pie spice or just cinnamon and nutmeg for a warm, spiced taste.
- Make It Creamier: Use full-fat Greek yogurt for a richer texture or add a splash of coconut milk.
- Boost the Protein: Stir in 1-2 tablespoons of protein powder or a spoonful of nut butter (like almond or peanut butter).
- Crunchy Toppings: Sprinkle on chopped pecans, walnuts, granola, or pumpkin seeds before serving for a satisfying crunch.
