  • Total Time: 4 hours 5 minutes
  • Yield: 1 serving

Ingredients

Basic Ingredients

  • 1/3 cup old-fashioned rolled oats, gluten-free if needed
  • 1/3 cup unsweetened vanilla almond milk or other preferred milk
  • 1/3 cup pumpkin puree (not pumpkin pie filling)
  • 1/3 cup plain or vanilla Greek yogurt
  • 1/2-1 tablespoon chia seeds (optional, to thicken the oats)
  • 1/2 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice or cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla or almond extract
  • Sweetener to taste (1 1/2 packets Stevia, or 2-3 teaspoons honey or maple syrup)

Optional Toppings

  • Raisins
  • Craisins
  • Shredded coconut
  • Granola
  • Seeds
  • Nuts
  • Nut butter

Instructions

  1. Combine Ingredients: In a small bowl or jar with a lid, mix the rolled oats, almond milk, pumpkin puree, Greek yogurt, chia seeds (if using), pumpkin pie spice or cinnamon, vanilla or almond extract, and your choice of sweetener. Stir thoroughly to combine all ingredients.
  2. Refrigerate: Cover the bowl or jar with a lid or plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight to allow the oats to soak and flavors to meld.
  3. Serve: Enjoy the overnight oats chilled straight from the fridge or gently warm them in the microwave. Optionally, let the oats sit at room temperature for 10-20 minutes before eating for a less cold texture.
  4. Add Toppings: Before serving, sprinkle your desired toppings such as raisins, craisins, shredded coconut, granola, seeds, nuts, or a dollop of nut butter. Add extra milk if you prefer a thinner consistency.
  5. Meal Prep: You can prepare multiple servings ahead of time and store them in individual jars in the refrigerator. They will keep well for up to 5 days for convenient breakfasts throughout the week.

Notes

  • Use pumpkin puree, not pumpkin pie filling, to control sugar and additives.
  • Chia seeds are optional but help thicken the oats and add fiber.
  • Adjust sweetness according to your preference with stevia, honey, or maple syrup.
  • Overnight oats are best enjoyed within 5 days when refrigerated properly.
  • Warm gently if preferred, but this recipe is commonly eaten cold.
  • Use gluten-free oats if accommodating gluten-free diets.
