Another fall recipe with pumpkin and I’m not even sorry or waiting to post this because these are THAT good! I used my Triple Berry Overnight Oats recipe as a base and added in pumpkin and lots of spices. These are super easy to make, taste soo good and makes for the quickest and most convenient breakfast ever! Like I said with my first overnight oats recipe, I was a little skeptical of overnight oats at first because I was worried I wouldn’t like the texture, but these are perfect for me and I think it tastes great whether it’s straight out of the fridge or heated in the microwave.
Health Benefits:
- Oats and flax seed are a good source of fiber, which is important for our digestive health.
- Yogurt and milk both provide calcium and protein, essential for our skeletal and muscular systems. You can use whatever types work best for you, whether that’s dairy-free, lactose-free or regular!
- Pumpkin puree is very high in vitamin A and is a good source of other antioxidants and minerals, as well.
- Protein powder is an extra boost of protein, but a lot depends on the brand and type you use, so do your research.

The perfect recipe for a healthy, easy and delicious breakfast or snack that can be prepped in advance and tastes like pumpkin pie!
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup oats
- 1/4 cup walnuts and/or pecans

- 1/4 cup pumpkin
- 1/4 cup milk
- 1/4 cup yogurt

Directions
- In a mason jar or tupperware with a sealable lid, combine all ingredients. I like to add dry ingredients first, shake well, then add wet ingredients and shake or mix together.
- Seal lid and place in refrigerator for 4 or more hours (I recommend overnight).
- Enjoy cold or warm. Heat by simply microwaving in a microwave safe bowl in 30 second intervals until heated through.
