Ingredients

  • 1 cup water
  • 1/2 cup old fashioned rolled oats gluten-free, if desired
  • 1/4 of a medium banana mashed
  • 1/4 cup organic pumpkin puree not pumpkin pie filling
  • 1 packet stevia or other sweetener optional
  • 1/2-1 tablespoon chia seeds
  • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice if you don't have this spice, add 1/4 teaspoon more of cinnamon

Instructions

  • Bring water to a boil in a medium pot over high heat.
  • Add oats and lower temperature to a simmer. Simmer oats for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  • When oats have cooked for about 5 minutes, stir in chia seeds, pumpkin puree, mashed banana, seasonings and a stevia packet (optional). With this method, you may need to stir a little more often during the last few minutes of cooking. Depending on the consistency that you prefer your oats, you also may want to add more water or almond milk.
  • Transfer oats to bowl and add desired toppings.

Notes

Optional toppings: blueberries, chopped walnuts, dried fruit, unsweetened shredded coconut, and/or nut butter
