Easy Pumpkin Oatmeal

Method

  1. 1

    **If you are using pumpkin puree skip the first step and just add the milk to a pot. **

  2. 2

    In a small saucepan over medium heat combine the milk and pumpkin. Cook for 15 minutes or until the pumpkin is fork tender.

  3. 3

    With the help of an immersion blender process the pumpkin and milk until combined.

  4. 4

    Add the oats, maple syrup, pumpkin pie spice, vanilla extract and salt to the milk and pumpkin mixture.

  5. 5

    Continue cooking for 8 minutes or until thickened.

  6. 6

    Remove from heat and serve with granola, yogurt or any topping you like.

Notes

I highly recommend you dice the pumpkin in smaller pieces so it cooks faster. I love my oats THICK so I cooked them for 8 minutes stirring constantly. You can cook them for a little bit less time if you want yours more runny.
