TO ME, EVERY SEASON IS PUMPKIN SPICE SEASON…

So it’s suuuper nice when the whole world gets on board with this glorious flavor in the fall. With the cooler weather, I like to start my day with something warm and comforting. This recipe for pumpkin spice steel cut oats has become a fast favorite for myself and my husband, Ryan.

I hope you find a quiet moment in the morning to make this stovetop breakfast for yourself. I also think it tastes better in flannel jammies while wrapped in a soft blanket cocoon on the couch…just sayin!

RECIPE (SERVES 2):

  • 3/4 c. steel cut oats (I used Bob’s Red Mill Steel Cut Oats)

  • 2 T. ground flax meal

  • 1 T. chia seeds

  • 1 tsp. pumpkin pie spice

  • 1/3 c. pumpkin puree

  • 2 T. pure maple syrup

  • 1 1/2 c. water

  • Pinch of salt

  • Optional: Pumpkin seeds or chopped nuts to sprinkle on top

Add all ingredients in a small pot and bring to low boil. Turn down the heat to low/medium and simmer for 5-7 minutes, until it reaches your desired thickness. Spoon into bowls and top with pumpkin seeds, chopped walnuts, chopped pecans, butter, ghee, coconut oil, or anything else you’re feelin’ that day.
