Ingredients Equipment Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup rolled oats
  • 1/2 cup canned pumpkin
  • 1 cup milk  dairy or plant-based
  • 2 tbsp maple syrup or honey
  • 1 tsp cinnamon ground
  • 1/2 tsp nutmeg ground
  • 1/4 tsp cloves ground
  • Pinch salt
  • 1/2 cup Greek yogurt optional topping

Equipment

  • Mixing bowl
  • Spoon or spatula

Method
 

  1. Combine the rolled oats, canned pumpkin, milk, maple syrup, cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, and a pinch of salt in a mixing bowl. Whisk until the mixture is smooth and well combined, with the oats fully coated.
  2. Cover the bowl with a lid or plastic wrap and place it in the refrigerator overnight. Let the oats soak and absorb all the flavors, turning into a creamy, thick mixture.
  3. The next morning, open the refrigerator and give the oats a gentle stir to ensure an even texture. The oats should be soft, thick, and pudding-like.
  4. Spoon the overnight oats into bowls and top with a dollop of Greek yogurt or your favorite toppings, such as nuts or seeds, for added texture and flavor.
