pumpkin pie overnight oats Ingredient Notes:

  • Gluten-Free Rolled Oats: Make sure to use certified gluten-free oats if you’re following a gluten-free diet. Rolled oats work best for a creamy texture but avoid instant oats, as they can become mushy.
  • Chia Seeds: Chia seeds not only add nutrition but also help thicken the oats. If you’re not a fan of chia seeds, you can omit them, but the texture will be less creamy.
  • Nut Milk: Unsweetened nut milk (like almond, cashew, or coconut) keeps the recipe healthy and low in sugar. You can substitute it with any milk of your choice, including dairy milk.
  • Pumpkin Puree: Use pure pumpkin puree for the best flavor. Avoid pumpkin pie filling, which contains added sugars and spices.
  • Maple Syrup: This natural sweetener enhances the flavor of the oats. Adjust the amount according to your sweetness preference. You can substitute it with honey or agave syrup if desired.
  • Greek Yogurt: For a creamy topping, use plain or vanilla Greek yogurt. Dairy-free yogurt can be substituted for a vegan option.

Ingredients

  • For the Overnight Oats
  • 1/2 cup gluten-free rolled oats

  • 2 tablespoons chia seeds

  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon

  • pinch kosher salt

  • 3/4 cup milk of choice

  • 1/4 cup pumpkin puree

  • 1 tablespoon maple syrup (add 1 extra tablespoon if you like it sweeter)

  • For the Yogurt Topping
  • 1/3 cup plain or vanilla whole-milk or low-fat Greek yogurt (can sub dairy-free)

  • 1 teaspoon maple syrup

  • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon

Directions

  • In a 12-ounce jar, combine the oats, chia seeds, cinnamon, and salt.
  • Whisk in the milk, pumpkin puree, and maple syrup and mix until evenly combined and no dry ingredients remain clumped at the bottom.
  • Cover and refrigerate for at least 6 hours or overnight to set. Keep refrigerated until serving.
  • In a small bowl mix the Greek yogurt, maple syrup, and cinnamon together and top the chilled oats before serving.

Notes

  • Meal Prep Tip: To make breakfast even easier, prepare multiple jars of overnight oats at once. Simply add all the measurements above to 4 or 5 jars to have breakfast ready for the week! Keep the jars refrigerated until you’re ready to enjoy.
  • Pumpkin Spice Variation: For added flavor, consider incorporating pumpkin pie spice into the mix. A teaspoon can elevate the pumpkin flavor even more.
  • Oats: Old fashioned or rolled oats are the best option for overnight oats! While you can use instant oats, the texture will be different. Instant oats may become mushy after sitting.
  • Dairy-free, vegan: Use a plant-based milk and dairy-free yogurt.
    Maple syrup: Swap for honey
    Protein Powder: For an added protein boost, add 2 tablespoons vanilla protein powder to each jar. This is my go-to vanilla protein powder for oats.

  1. I made these for my daughter’s first day of school (she’s a teacher) and made an extra one for myself. Just enjoying it now and it is absolutely delicious. Just the right amount of sweet. I did add a tablespoon of hemp hearts and used pumpkin spice. I will alternate these with your awesome breakfast biscuits! Just to clarify, is one recipe supposed to fill two separate jars?

    1. I hope this helps. With different brands you may have different results so please only use this for reference.

  2. Very tasty recipe. Only used 1 tbsp of chia seeds since 2 seemed like a bit too much. Also, the amount of cinnamon in the yogurt topping was overwhelming. Would definitely make again but would cut the cinnamon to 1/4 tsp.

  3. This is delicious! It has been in my meal prep rotation for 2 weeks. The cinnamon yogurt topping is a must!

  4. Eating this right now and it’s delicious!! Topped it with banana mixed with honey and cinnamon softened on the stove top. Good for any season!

  5. This was delicious! I did 1tbsp chia & 1 tbsp ground flaxseed and added about 3/4 scoop of vegan vanilla protein powder. Left the maple syrup out and used a vanilla Greek yogurt- the sweetness was perfect for me. I also topped with walnuts for some added crunch. This is going into my meal prep rotation for sure!
