Ingredients

Scale

Oats Base

  • 1 cup rolled oats
  • 1 cup milk of choice (dairy or non-dairy)
  • 1/2 cup pumpkin purée (not pumpkin pie filling)
  • 2 tablespoons chia seeds
  • 2–3 tablespoons maple syrup or honey (adjust to taste)
  • 1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

Toppings (Optional)

  • Chopped nuts (such as pecans or walnuts)
  • Granola
  • Yogurt
  • Whipped cream
  • Nut butter

Instructions

  1. Combine ingredients: In a mason jar or a bowl, add the rolled oats, pumpkin purée, milk, chia seeds, maple syrup or honey, pumpkin pie spice, and vanilla extract. This creates the flavorful and nutritious base of your overnight oats.
  2. Stir well: Mix all ingredients thoroughly to ensure they are evenly combined and the flavors are well distributed throughout the oats and liquid.
  3. Refrigerate overnight: Cover the jar or bowl with a lid or plastic wrap and place it in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight. This allows the oats and chia seeds to absorb the liquid and soften, creating a creamy texture.
  4. Stir before serving: After soaking, give the oats a good stir. If the mixture is too thick, add a splash of milk to reach your desired consistency.
  5. Top and enjoy: Add your favorite toppings such as chopped nuts, granola, a dollop of yogurt, a drizzle of nut butter, or whipped cream for extra flavor and texture before serving.

Notes

  • Use pure pumpkin purée, not pumpkin pie filling, to avoid added sugars and unnecessary spices.
  • Adjust the sweetness to your preference by varying the amount of maple syrup or honey.
  • For a vegan version, use plant-based milk and maple syrup instead of honey.
  • Chia seeds add thickness and nutrition, but you can omit them if desired.
  • Overnight oats can be prepared up to 3 days in advance and stored in the refrigerator.
  • Add toppings just before eating to keep them crunchy.
