Stir well and cook for another two to three minutes, stirring occasionally until flavors are combined. Serve in two bowl and top with chia seeds, flax seeds and chopped almonds.

    "How can I make overnight pumpkin oatmeal," you may ask!

    Overnight oatmeal is a great option for meal prep as you can do it ahead of time and have breakfast ready for the rest of the week. To make over night oatmeal with pumpkin:

    • Mix quick oats, almond milk, almond butter, maple syrup, pumpkin puree and pumpkin spice in individual jars.
    • Top with chopped almonds, chia seeds and flax seeds and seal the lid.
    • Refrigerate the oatmeal overnight.
    • When ready to serve, transfer the oatmeal to a microwave safe bowl and microwave for about two minutes until warm. You can also serve it cold.

    Want to jazz things up in this pumpkin spice oatmeal?

    • You can use peanut butter and peanuts instead of almond butter and whole almonds.
    • Add chocolate chips to make this into chocolate chip pumpkin oatmeal.
    • Instead of almond milk, you can use cashew or coconut milk as well.
    • Use honey or molasses instead of pure maple syrup.

    Notes and tips for making this pumpkin spice oatmeal: 

    • The recipe requires 1 teaspoon of pumpkin pie spice. You can always add more if you like. If pumpkin pie spice is not available, use a combination of cinnamon, nutmeg and allspice.
    • Quick oats cook very fast. If you're using old fashioned rolled oats, cook them longer so they are soft. Make sure you stir the oatmeal occasionally.
    • You can mix all the ingredients in a container and store in the fridge overnight. Heat later using a microwave or stove top.

    This healthy pumpkin spice oatmeal is simple and delicious.

    Celebrate fall with this pumpkin pie almond oatmeal that is easy and healthy. You can make it on the stove or in the microwave, and adding the almonds will give it a great crunch!

      Yum, this looks so cozy and delicious! I just may make it for breakfast tomorrow - hopefully my toddler will love it, too, and I'll know he's getting a little veg in his morning oatmeal!
