These Pumpkin Pie Overnight Oats have all the flavor you love in a healthy, gluten-free breakfast. A little prep the night before is all you have to do!
Pumpkin season is in full swing over here! With the cooler weather comes lots of comforting, hearty dishes, hot chocolate, cozy movie nights, and of course, lots of pumpkin! We can’t stop eating this healthy pumpkin cookie dough dip right now; it’s perfect with fresh fruit! I had to make another pumpkin creation for the family to enjoy.
What happened was these Pumpkin Pie Overnight Oats. I’d say it was a great idea!
Oats are already a healthy breakfast option (especially for those who are gluten-free), and pumpkin just adds even more nutrition! It’s full of vitamin A for healthy eyes, beta-carotene, and fiber. Mixed with some cinnamon, pecans, and a drizzle of molasses, it’s the perfect fall addition to your morning bowl of oats. Plus, all you have to do is mix everything the night before, wake up, and dig in!

can i use instant oats in place of old fashioned? i have never had overnight oats. are they meant to eat cold?
Yes you can! And you can enjoy them cold straight out the fridge, or warm them up a little in the microwave if you prefer that.
