Servings: 2 people
Calories: 354kcal
Ingredients
- 60 g of Oats (use certified gluten free oats to ensure this recipe is gluten free)
- 350 ml of Whole milk
- 5 tablespoons of Pumpkin puree
- 2 tablespoons of chia seeds
- 0.5 teaspoon of Cinnamon
- 0.5 teaspoon of Ground nutmeg
- 0.5 teaspoon of Ground ginger
- 2 tablespoons of Maple syrup
- Pecans and dried cherries for serving (optional)
Instructions
- Add everything to a pan: Put all of the ingredients in a saucepan and mix well.
- Heat: Simmer for 4-5 minutes until thickened.
- Serve: Divide between bowls and top with yogurt and maple syrup and any other toppings of your choice.
Notes
- Stir more frequently towards the end of cooking, as the chia seeds make the mixture thicken quickly.
- Toast pecans, walnuts or pumpkin seeds before adding them for even more flavour.
- If you open a whole can of pumpkin puree for this recipe, freeze the remaining puree in small portions so it is ready for future breakfasts and baking.
- A tiny pinch of salt can help bring out the sweetness and warming spices if your oatmeal tastes a little flat.
- Give the oatmeal a minute to stand before serving, as it will thicken slightly once it comes off the heat.
