HaveĀ pumpkin pie for breakfast with this healthy pumpkin pie overnight oats recipe. It’s fast, easy, vegan, gluten-free and delicious!Ā
I hope you are ready for all things pumpkin because as you know, October is here and Iām obsessed. Call me basic if you want, but I love pumpkin flavored things (and I know many of you do as well) so letās celebrate. And by celebrate I mean, enjoy as much pumpkin goodness as possible… without having our skin turn orange.
SEE HOW EASY IT IS TO MAKE THESE PUMPKIN PIE OVERNIGHT OATS:
Most of you probably know what overnight oats are, but just in case we have some newbies, hereās a simple explanation āĀ overnight oats are simply plain rolled oats (not instant) that soak up liquid overnight in the fridge. You can use any type and combination of liquid/wet ingredients you like. My favorite is unsweetened vanilla almond milk, coconut milk and/or Greek yogurt.
For this particular batch Iām using almond milk and canned pumpkin for my wet ingredients. After letting the oats soak up the liquid overnight (or a few hours if you’re pressed for time) youāre ready to eat. You take the oats out of the fridge, give them a good stir, top with your favorite toppings and enjoy. Thereās no cooking involved!
This particular overnight oat combo is one of my absolute favorites! I basically wait all year for it. Pumpkin puree, pumpkin pie spices and almond milk give the oats a creamy texture and fall flavor that I love. If Iām craving more protein Iāll add a little protein powder or Greek yogurt to the mix but I donāt always find it necessary ā especially if Iām adding pepitas (raw pumpkin seeds) and hemp seeds as a topping. The add ins and toppings are totally customizable so feel free to experiment with what works for you!
Eating something that tastes like pumpkin pie for breakfast is an amazing way to start the day. Seriously, you have to try it!
Short on time or forgot to prep your overnight oats? Iāve got you covered… make this pumpkin pie smoothie instead!

P.s- can’t wait to try this recipe! Bring on all the pumpkin.

October 5, 2015 at 10:32 amYum! What are the nutrition stats? Doesn’t look like they came though in the post.

October 5, 2015 at 12:52 pmHi Cindy. Sorry about that — I don’t know what happened to the stats. Just added them again.

Ashley @ Fit Mitten Kitchen says
October 5, 2015 at 11:22 amFinally was able to get on the overnight oats bandwagon by using steel cut instead of old-fashioned! Something about the cold texture got me. But I had something like this last week and LOVED it. So so good. #pumpkineverything #noshame š
Have fun on your trip!
Brittany Mullins says
October 5, 2015 at 12:51 pmYay! So happy you’re on-board with the overnight oats now. I’ve made them with steel cut oats before too and I really like the extra chewiness.

October 5, 2015 at 1:03 pmWhere are you staying in Aruba? We were just there in July, we stayed at Bucuti and Tara and it was fabulous! I highly recommend going on one of the snorkeling tours- we went on a 3 stop catamaran one and it was amazing! We also went on a horseback tour to the Natural Pool which was great, so if you like/think you will like riding horses you may want to try it. There’s a great restaurant called the flying fishbone that you can sit with your feet in the water at sunset, fun and great food!
Brittany Mullins says
October 5, 2015 at 4:08 pmWe’re staying at the Divi Resort an it’s our first time so your suggestions are really helpful. I definitely think we’ll do a couple snorkeling trips and we’ll look into the horseback ride as well. Thank you!!

Susan Krueger Morrison says
October 6, 2015 at 8:05 amThese oats look so yummy – can’t wait to try them! Have dinner at Passions on the Beach if you have the time. The food and atmosphere was so wonderful – a meal highlight of our trip. If you return on a weekend day – be sure to get to the airport at least 3 hours early. You clear US Customs in Aruba and the lines are very long. Have a great trip!
Brittany Mullins says
October 6, 2015 at 2:26 pmThanks so much for all the suggestions Susan! We do come home on the weekend so we’ll make sure to get to the airport early.

September 26, 2016 at 9:52 amLooks like we both had pumpkin pie on the brain for breakfast š
Love that you added in so much texture with those pepitas, hemp and chai seeds!
Suzi says
July 23, 2018 at 11:33 amCan they be wormed up in the morning? Will it taste right? I prefer warm oatmeal but not if it’s going to “mess it up” ?
Jenny says
January 7, 2019 at 2:20 amI’ve seen overnight oatmeal recipes… and this one sounds yummy. So… do you eat them cold? I kinda like warm oatmeal and am not sure about cold.
Brittany Mullins says
January 7, 2019 at 10:26 amYes! Typically you eat overnight oats cold, BUT if that doesn’t sound good you can always heat them up in the morning. Maybe try this recipe, give the cold oats a taste and if you don’t like it, heat them up. š
