Ingredients
  

1 cup rolled oats

1 cup unsweetened almond milk (or your preferred milk)

1/2 cup canned pumpkin puree

1/4 cup chia seeds

2 tablespoons maple syrup (or honey for sweetness)

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 teaspoon pumpkin spice blend (or a homemade mix of cinnamon, nutmeg, and ginger)

A pinch of salt

Optional toppings: chopped nuts (such as pecans or walnuts), coconut flakes, sliced banana, or extra pumpkin seeds

Instructions
 

Combine Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, add the rolled oats, chia seeds, pumpkin spice blend, and a pinch of salt. Use a spoon to thoroughly mix these dry ingredients, ensuring the spice is evenly distributed throughout the oats and chia seeds.

    Mix Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the almond milk, pumpkin puree, maple syrup, and vanilla extract until the mixture is smooth and well integrated. This step ensures that the pumpkin puree blends seamlessly with the liquid components.

      Combine Mixtures: Gradually pour the wet mixture into the bowl containing the dry ingredients. Stir with a spoon or spatula until all the oats and chia seeds are evenly coated and the mixture is uniformly mixed.

        Refrigerate: Cover the bowl tightly with plastic wrap, or transfer the combined mixture into individual jars or containers with lids. Place in the refrigerator overnight, or for at least 4 hours, allowing the oats and chia seeds to absorb the liquid and swell to a creamy consistency.

          Serve: The next morning, take your mixture out of the refrigerator and give it a good stir. If the mixture appears too thick for your liking, simply stir in a splash of almond milk until you reach your desired creaminess.

            Add Toppings: Portion the overnight oats into bowls or keep them in jars for convenience. Top with your favorite garnishes like chopped nuts, coconut flakes, sliced banana, or additional pumpkin seeds to add texture and flavor.

              Enjoy: Indulge in your creamy and spiced Pumpkin Chia Overnight Oats, a delightful and nutritious start to your day!
