Pro Tips

✔ Boost protein by stirring in a scoop of vanilla protein powder or Greek yogurt.
✔ Warm it up if you prefer a cozy breakfast—just microwave for 30-60 seconds.

Why This Recipe Works

Overnight oats are a magical combo of convenience and nutrition. The chia seeds plump up overnight creating a pudding-like texture while the pumpkin adds creaminess and a dose of vitamin A. The pumpkin pie spice? That’s the cheat code for making it taste like dessert.

Variations to Try

  • Vegan? Use almond milk and maple syrup.
  • Extra crunch? Top with toasted coconut or walnuts.
  • Chocolate twist? Add a tsp of cocoa powder for a mocha-pumpkin vibe.
