I haven’t had much success with my own pumpkin oats so I need to make yours. I have a half of a can left so it will be happening soon. I am leaving for RI to go to my bf’s wedding this weekend! Can’t wait! Have a great weekend!
Love pumpkin oats!! I just got some pumpkin from the store yesterday! I’m so excited to make this
Mmm pumpkin oats are soo good! I made some the other morning
I’m going to use the rest of the puree to make one of my favorite cookies ever–pumpkin ginger!
XOXO
have fun this evening and it sounds like fun!
Pumpkin ginger cookies?!? Oh man, those sound delicious. I think I need to come over.
yum!! that looks so delicious! my weekend plans include a pita pizza party tonight, and nyc for my best friend’s birthday tomorrow
happy weekend, britt!
So jealous of your trip to NYC Allison! I hope you have a blast!
Yay! I’m so excited! Thank you.
I’ll shoot you an email ASAP. I LOVE pumpkin oats! I also love making Gina’s breakfast cookies using pumpkin – they’re so good!
I love your pumpkin oats, they look delicious! Last night I made pumpkin banana bread and my house smells AMAZING!!!
No big plans for the weekend, dinner/movie tonight with Jason then the rest of the weekend will be filled with cleaning, organizing and relaxing
I’ve been waiting for a good recipe since my mish mash of spices and ingredients hasn’t been the best. It’s definitely on the docket to be made soon!! Thanks!
Those oats look divine! I randomly had overnight oats for breakfast this morning. I had nothing else but oats, almond milk, and a peach in the house, et voila! All I missed was the pumpkin.
This is great! I made pumpkin oats this mornign too! instead of banana (I was out) I just added raisins+ oats + 1/2 c org. milk + 3 T pumpkin + pumpkin pie spice + cinnamon + dash of vanilla….= AMAZING!
ps. wrote a post today about WHY we need Rd’s….check it out!
i like that its ‘overnight oats’ !!! they look really plump too <3 <3
I’ve been using homemade apple butter on my oats, too! It’s delish, especially with the pumpkin
Lovely recipe. Thank you for sharing it with me. I’ve yet to make overnight oats…and I don’t know why! I hope your Friday is full of laughter, love and joy!
Have a great weekend! My weekend will hopefully consist of lots of running, swimming, eating delicious food and simply relaxing after a hectic week!
Oh yum! I will have to try these. I actually just got some homemade pumpkin butter from a friend of mine so that might be even more pumpkin goodness!
Pumpkin butter would be perfect! I almost used some of my homemade butter then I realized it was last year. haha
that’s fall in a bowl
I haven’t gotten into overnight oats yet, but I love pumpkin oats and apple butter!
Goodness. That is autumn in a bowl.
Yummy! Where do you get the pumpkin pie spice? I’ve had my eye out and haven’t come across it anywhere.
I found it at Trader Joe’s!
i got some today at a QFC (like kroger)… it was a small container. you have to look hard.
Thanks Jenny.
I really enjoy pumpkin Overnight oats ! It tastes good and so smooth !
(I have a little question, what does the “T” when you say “2 T canned pumpkin and 1 T vanilla protein powder ” ? Does it means tablespoons ?)
*Sorry if my english is not perfect, I’m from Quebec !!:D)
I’m glad you like the pumpkin overnight oats! Yes, T stands for Tablespoon and t stands for teaspoon. Hope that helps!
Thanks !
Would whole grain quick oats work too? This sounds so scrumptious!
Hi Tiffany, quick oats don’t work well for overnight oats. You’ll want to use old fashioned rolled oats.
Do you think this would work with steel cut oats? Or does it need to be pumpkin? I’m tempted to also just try it with Muesli—can you tell I just want to use what’s in my cabinet at the moment?? =)
Hi Danielle,
You definitely don’t have to use pumpkin so no worries about that. I don’t think steel cut oats would work as they wouldn’t soak up the liquid the way regular, old fashioned rolled oats do. But, muesli should work!
Hope that helps!
Thanks!! I ended up cooking the steel cut outs with pumpkin right in the pan – topped with cinnamon and crushed walnuts. Delicious! Thanks for the inspiration..
