Serves: 5 servings
Ingredients
- 3 cups water
- 2 cups Silk Unsweetened Cashew Milk Beverage or Coconut Milk Beverage, plus additional for serving
- 1 14-ounce can pumpkin puree (1½ cups)
- 2 tablespoons maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
- ¾ teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 2 cups old-fashioned rolled oats (certified gluten-free, if needed)
- ½ cup quick oats (certified gluten-free, if needed)
- Sweetener of choice, to taste (optional)
- Raisins, dried cranberries, or crystalized ginger, for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- Whisk the water, milk beverage, pumpkin, maple, vanilla, pie spice, salt, and cinnamon in a medium saucepan until smooth. Bring the mixture to a boil over medium heat.
- Whisk in the old-fashioned oats, and reduce the heat to low. Let the mixture simmer, whisking often to prevent sticking, for 10 minutes.
- Stir in the quick oats, and continue simmer, whisking often, for 5 minutes.
- Cover and remove from the heat; let sit for 3 minutes.
- Optionally serve with additional sweetener (maple syrup, brown sugar, stevia, etc), dried fruit, and / or milk beverage.*
Notes
*When craving something gently sweet and warming, I enjoy 1 serving of this delicious pumpkin spice oatmeal with 5 to 6 drops of vanilla stevia and a small handful of organic raisins stirred in. For a breakfast cereal experience, I then pour on a generous drizzle of unsweetened dairy-free milk beverage.
