Scale
Main Ingredients
- ¼ cup (56g) plain nonfat Greek yogurt (or use vanilla)
- ½ cup (120g) unsweetened vanilla almond milk (or any milk)
- ¼ cup (61g) pumpkin puree
- 1-2 tablespoons pure maple syrup
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
- ½ cup (48g) rolled oats (gluten free if desired)
- 2 teaspoons chia seeds
- ½ teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
Instructions
- Combine wet ingredients: In a medium bowl, mix together Greek yogurt, almond milk, pumpkin puree, vanilla extract, and 1 tablespoon of maple syrup until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
- Add dry ingredients: Stir in the rolled oats, chia seeds, and pumpkin pie spice thoroughly to disperse all ingredients evenly throughout the mixture.
- Adjust sweetness: Taste the mixture and add additional maple syrup if you prefer a sweeter flavor, mixing thoroughly after adding.
- Refrigerate: Pour the mixture into a glass jar or container with a lid. Seal and place it in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours or overnight to allow the oats and chia seeds to soak and soften fully.
