Ingredients

Scale
  • 1/2 cup rolled oats
  • 1 cup unsweetened almond milk (or other plant milk)
  • 1/4 cup pumpkin puree (not pumpkin pie filling)
  • 1 tablespoon maple syrup (adjust to your sweetness preference)
  • 1/2 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • Pinch of ground nutmeg
  • 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 shot espresso or 1/2 teaspoon instant coffee powder (optional, for the ‘latte’ flavor)
  • Toppings: vegan whipped cream, extra cinnamon, toasted pumpkin seeds

Instructions

  1. Combine the rolled oats, almond milk, pumpkin puree, maple syrup, pumpkin pie spice, cinnamon, nutmeg, and vanilla extract in a small saucepan.
  2. If using, stir in the espresso shot or instant coffee powder now.
  3. Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer over medium heat, stirring frequently.
  4. Reduce the heat to low and cook for 5 to 7 minutes, or until the oatmeal reaches your desired thickness. Stir often to prevent sticking.
  5. Remove the saucepan from the heat. Let it sit for one minute.
  6. Pour the oatmeal into your favorite bowl.
  7. Top with vegan whipped cream, a sprinkle of extra cinnamon, and toasted pumpkin seeds before you eat.

Notes

  • For a thicker oatmeal, use less plant milk. For a soupier texture, add a splash more milk while cooking.
  • You can prepare the spice blend ahead of time by mixing your own pumpkin pie spice if you prefer.
  • This recipe works well with quick oats, but adjust the cooking time.
  • Make this ahead! Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to three days. Reheat on the stovetop or microwave with a little extra liquid.
