Start your fall mornings with the taste of pumpkin pie overnight oats with this easy make-ahead breakfast topped with dried cranberries, pepitas and pecans.
If you are a fan of hot oatmeal, you will love pumpkin pie overnight oats.
Full of fiber, gluten-free, sugar-free and healthy, this simple breakfast can be prepped the night before.
The great thing about this recipe is how versatile it is.
If it’s fall, spoon a scoop of pumpkin purée and top with your favorite nuts.
Summertime is the perfect time to top your overnight oats with fresh berries, juicy peaches, or bananas.
If you have five, minutes the possibilities are endless.
For this recipe I grabbed a bag of mixed cranberries, glazed pecans and pepitas from Costco that I typically reserved for salads.
It’s the perfect combination of fall nuts, seeds and dried fruit.
What are overnight oats?
It’s a simple mixture of rolled raw old fashioned oats, a liquid of your choice and a sweetener.
Have you tried it?
You should. While this breakfast is typically served cold, overnight oats can be easily warmed up in the morning if that is your preference.
Do pumpkin pie overnight oats really need to sit overnight?
No, four hours is all you need but overnight is ideal. That gives your oats a chance to soak up the add-ins.
