Prepare this easy recipe for pumpkin pie overnight oats the night before for a creamy, grab-and-go breakfast that tastes like a comforting autumn treat.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1/2 cup rolled oats
  • 1/2 cup milk (dairy or non-dairy)
  • 1/3 cup pumpkin puree (not pumpkin pie filling)
  • 1/4 cup Greek yogurt (or dairy-free alternative)
  • 1 tablespoon chia seeds
  • 1–2 tablespoons maple syrup (adjust to your sweetness preference)
  • 1/2 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
  • 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Pinch of salt
  • Optional topping: Chopped pecans or a drizzle of maple syrup

Instructions

  1. In a jar or container with a lid, combine the rolled oats, milk, pumpkin puree, Greek yogurt, chia seeds, maple syrup, pumpkin pie spice, vanilla extract, and salt.
  2. Stir all ingredients together well until everything is fully mixed and the chia seeds are distributed.
  3. Secure the lid tightly on the container.
  4. Place the container in the refrigerator and let it chill for at least 4 hours, but preferably overnight. This allows the oats and chia seeds to absorb the liquid and become creamy.
  5. In the morning, remove the pumpkin pie overnight oats from the refrigerator. If the mixture is too thick, stir in a splash more milk until you reach your desired consistency.
  6. Add your desired toppings, such as chopped pecans or an extra drizzle of maple syrup.
  7. Eat cold directly from the jar. This is a perfect make ahead breakfast for busy mornings.

Notes

  • For a protein overnight oats boost, add one scoop of vanilla or unflavored protein powder when mixing the ingredients.
  • If you prefer a thinner consistency, increase the milk slightly. If you want it thicker, add a few more chia seeds.
  • This recipe is naturally vegetarian. To make it vegan, use non-dairy milk and dairy-free yogurt.
  • These refrigerated oats keep well in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
