🥘 Ingredients

Here is everything you need to make this creamy, delicious breakfast!

Milk: I used whole milk for this recipe, however non-dairy milks can be used in it's place.
Old-fashioned oats: these work best as they lend some chew to the oatmeal. These are also known as rolled oats,
Pumpkin puree, be sure to buy the can that says puree, not pie filling. Or, make your own homemade pumpkin puree.
Brown sugar: light or dark will work. I prefer the dark brown sugar for a deeper flavor.
Pumpkin pie spice: to add the warm fall flavors to the oatmeal.
Vanilla extract: compliments the flavors
Chia seeds: add fiber and healthy fats to the oats.
Pecans: chopped
