Preparation Steps
  1. In a small saucepan, combine the rolled oats, pumpkin puree, almond milk, maple syrup, pumpkin pie spice, vanilla extract, and salt. Stir well to combine all ingredients.
  2. Bring the mixture to a gentle boil over medium heat, then reduce heat to low and simmer, stirring occasionally, for 5-7 minutes or until the oatmeal has thickened to your desired consistency. If it becomes too thick, add a splash more milk.
  3. Remove from heat and let it sit for a minute or two before serving.
  4. Divide the pumpkin pie oatmeal into serving bowls. Garnish with optional toppings like chopped pecans, a dollop of whipped cream, or a drizzle of extra maple syrup. Serve warm and enjoy!

Notes

This oatmeal is great for meal prep! Prepare a larger batch and store it in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat with a splash of milk or water to restore creamy consistency.
