Pumpkin Pie Oatmeal
Ingredients
- 2 cups (490 grams) low-fat milk
- 1 cup (240 grams) water
- 2 1/2 cups (200 grams) uncooked quick oats (certified gluten-free, if necessary)
- 1/4 cup (60 grams) canned pumpkin puree (certified gluten-free, if necessary)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 1/2 teaspoons pumpkin pie spice
- 2 tablespoons honey
NOTE: No pumpkin spice? No problem! Add 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon and 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg to the bread batter instead.
Directions
In a saucepan, combine milk and water and heat over medium-low heat for 2–3 minutes. Add oats, pumpkin puree, vanilla extract, salt and pumpkin pie spice to the pot, then stir until well combined. Allow the oatmeal to simmer for 2–3 minutes.
If the oatmeal is too thick, stir in a tablespoon of water at a time until it reaches the desired consistency.
Add honey, and stir. Enjoy!
