Oatmeal that tastes like pumpkin pie and is good for you. Easy to make and perfect for a quick work day breakfast!

3/4 cup of rolled oats (not the quick cooking or instant oats)
1/2 cup of canned pumpkin (the plain, unsweetened kind, not the pumpkin pie mix)
1/2 cup of unsweetened almond milk
1/4 tsp of pumpkin pie spice (add more or less according to your tastes)
2 splenda packets or sweetener of your choice

Mix everything except the oats in a smaller sized tupperware type of container. Whisk milk, pumpkin, splenda, and spices with a fork together until they are all blended into a unified orange liquid. Then add in oats and mix together until oats are fully coated with orange liquid.

Put oats in the fridge for a few hours (preferably overnight) or until the oats are soft. Then serve and eat. Can also be heated up, but this particular oatmeal tastes best cold in my opinion.

Here is the nutritional breakdown:

Serves 1 person

Calories - 285
Fat - 8 grams
Carbs - 52 grams
Protein - 11 grams
Sodium - 95 grams

Hope you enjoy this recipe as much as I did for breakfast today!

    I love oatrmeal and would love to try this. Sadly, it's just not something I can eat. I need protein in the morning.

    Oatmeal has protein! I think there are 6 grams per half cup of dry oats. :-)

    I wonder if I could use skim milk instead of almond milk? If so then I think I already have all the ingredients! :)

    Bump! This is exactly what I've been looking for. We simply can't get canned pumpkin in the UK, but a friend I met on here sent me some. I was planning on using it in porridge - so thanks loads for this recipe. x

    Skim milk and other types of milk would work fine in this. Calorie amounts will change, but otherwise it should still be good.

    Glad I could share this with you all!

    I'm preparing this tonight (minus the spices, since I don't have those). I'm excited to see how it turns out!

    Have a couple of slices of bacon with it?
