The temperatures are officially starting to drop and it’s time for everything pumpkin spice. I know, I know… pumpkin spice may be a little overplayed this fall and winter according to some, but just wait until you try this bowl for yourself! I promise you will be boarding the pumpkin train and embracing the seasonal goodness when you have this.

This bowl of oats is nourishing, grounding and absolutely delicious! It is also so easy to make with just a few simple ingredients that you have on hand in your pantry.

Here is how you can make this for yourself, and enjoy a warm breakfast and celebrate the new season and changing leaves!

Ingredients:

1 cup water
½ cup rolled oats
2 tbsp. nut milk (cashew or almond works best)
3 tbsp. pumpkin purée
1 tsp. cinnamon
¼ tsp. ground ginger
1/8 tsp. ground nutmeg
Pinch of salt

Method:

Bring one cup of water to boil // add 1/2 cup oats // cool until the oats absorb the water // add your cashew or almond milk and stir // add 3 tablespoons of pumpkin purée + a pinch of sea salt + 1 tsp. cinnamon + 1/4 tsp. ground ginger + 1/8 tsp. ground nutmeg* // spoon into a bowl and top with maple syrup and pumpkin seeds.

*if you have a pumpkin spice blend on hand, you can use 1.5 tsp. of this instead of the cinnamon, ginger and nutmeg combo.

Now sit in your favorite chair or couch, put those cozy socks on and dive under a warm blanket. Things are about to get cozy! Enjoy!
