Want to include more veggies in your day? Then enjoy these sugar-free pumpkin pie overnight oats in the morning. This healthy breakfast will make you feel excited to start the day.
My first pumpkin recipe this fall season is here! If you are a pumpkin lover like I am you will enjoy these vegan and sugar-free pumpkin pie overnight oats. This simple breakfast is filling, healthy and of course delicious. It's actually a great breakfast if you want to include more veggies to your day.
Overnight oats are not much different from cooked oatmeal. They're just, well, not cooked. If you want something warm for breakfast on those really cold fall days - which I can totally relate to - just heat those vegan pumpkin pie overnight oats. It will be just as delicious.
As I already mentioned, these pumpkin-pie overnight oats are sugar-free. They are naturally sweetened with dates. If you prefer a slightly sweeter breakfast you can add more dates or add a splash or two of maple syrup.
In terms of what milk to use, I recommend something less watery - like cashew milk, oat milk or mix it up with a bit of coconut milk for that extra dose of richness.
It's all about the spices
Let's not forget those pumpkin pie flavors! First and foremost there is cinnamon. I add cinnamon to basically everything and just loooove it in my morning oats. I also added a pinch of ground nutmeg and ginger to these overnight oats but feel free to omit these. Or even use other spices, like cardamom.
What I always add to my overnight oats are chia seeds. They add this great texture and of course those healthy, brain-boosting omega-3 fatty acids.
Serve these overnight oats with soy or coconut yogurt, maybe some walnuts and dried cranberries. I think bananas would also be great. If you're feeling fancy, top it all off with some (sugar-free) chocolate chips. Who doesn't like dessert for breakfast?
