Delicious and nutritious Pumpkin Overnight Oats made with organic quick oats, pumpkin butter, chia seeds, and warm spices. This easy no-cook breakfast is perfect for busy mornings, topped with fresh banana slices, nuts, and optional whipped cream for extra indulgence.


Ingredients

Scale

Base Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup organic quick oats*
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened milk of choice (such as oat milk)

Flavoring

  • 2 tbsp pumpkin butter (use less if store bought)
  • 1 tsp chia seeds
  • Pinch cinnamon
  • Pinch pumpkin pie spice

Toppings

  • 1/4 sliced banana (freeze the rest for smoothies)
  • Pinch cinnamon
  • Pinch pumpkin pie spice
  • 1 tbsp raw hulled pecans, pepitas, walnuts, or any nut
  • Whipped cream or dairy free cream (optional)


Instructions

  1. Combine Base Ingredients: In a jar, combine 1/4 cup organic quick oats with 1/2 cup unsweetened milk of your choice.
  2. Add Flavorings: Stir in 2 tablespoons pumpkin butter, 1 teaspoon chia seeds, and a pinch each of cinnamon and pumpkin pie spice until well incorporated.
  3. Refrigerate Overnight: Cover the jar, shake it to mix well, and refrigerate overnight (about 8 hours) to allow the oats to soften and flavors to meld.
  4. Prepare to Serve: The next morning, remove the jar from the refrigerator and let it sit at room temperature for 30 minutes to take off the chill, or microwave a few seconds if you prefer it warm.
  5. Add Toppings: Top with 1/4 sliced banana, additional pinch of cinnamon and pumpkin pie spice, 1 tablespoon raw nuts (pecans, pepitas, walnuts, or your choice), and finish with whipped cream or a dairy-free alternative if desired. Enjoy immediately.

Notes

  • For gluten-free, be sure to use gluten-free oats to avoid any cross-contamination.
  • Use less pumpkin butter if using store-bought as it may be sweeter than homemade.
  • This recipe can easily be doubled or tripled for meal prepping multiple servings.
  • Freezing leftover banana slices is great for future smoothies.
