Equipment

  • saucepan
  • measuring cups & spoons

Ingredients

  • cup (GF) rolled oats
  • cup vanilla almond milk
  • 2-3 tablespoons pumpkin puree*
  • 1 tablespoon flaxseed meal
  • 1 tablespoon pure maple syrup
  • ½ teaspoon cinnamon
  • pinch sea salt

Toppings

  • ¼ cup chopped pecans
  • additional drizzle of maple syrup + dash of cinnamon (optional)

Instructions

  • Combine: Add all ingredients to a saucepan, warm over medium heat and stir well.
  • Simmer & stir: Once the oatmeal begins to simmer, lower heat to medium-low and stir continuously until desired texture is achieved. Continue to lower heat if the oatmeal starts to boil or is absorbing liquid too quickly. If it does absorb too much liquid, add a splash of milk and stir well to thin.
    I typically cook mine for about 2-3 minutes, but you may need up to 5 minutes.
  • Top & enjoy:Remove from heat and top with chopped pecans, an extra drizzle of maple syrup and a dash of cinnamon. Enjoy!

Notes

*Use 2 tablespoons if you'd prefer to taste more maple and pecan than pumpkin, 3 tablespoons if you're a pumpkin lover.
