Ingredients
Scale
Base Ingredients
- 1/4 cup plain nonfat Greek yogurt
- 1/2 cup unsweetened almond milk
- 1/4 cup pumpkin purée
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1–2 tablespoons pure maple syrup
Dry Ingredients
- 1/2 cup rolled oats
- 2 teaspoons chia seeds
- 1/2 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
Instructions
- Whisk Base: In a medium bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt, unsweetened almond milk, pumpkin purée, vanilla extract, and 1 tablespoon of maple syrup until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
- Fold Oats and Spices: Gently fold in the rolled oats, chia seeds, and pumpkin pie spice. Taste the mixture and add an additional tablespoon of maple syrup if you prefer a sweeter flavor.
- Refrigerate: Transfer the combined mixture into a glass jar or an airtight container. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours or ideally overnight. This resting time allows the oats and chia seeds to absorb the liquid, softening into a creamy consistency while the flavors meld together.
Notes
- Use plain nonfat Greek yogurt for creaminess and added protein without extra fat.
- Adjust maple syrup to control sweetness; use less for a lower sugar version or substitute with honey if preferred.
- Chia seeds add texture and boost fiber and omega-3 fats.
- This recipe is easily dairy-free when using almond milk and non-dairy yogurt alternatives.
- Overnight oats can be prepared up to 24 hours in advance and stored refrigerated.
- For thickness, reduce almond milk slightly; for thinner oats, add a bit more.
