Ingredients:

  • 2 cups old fashioned oats dry or steel cut oats, uncooked

  1. Combine almond milk, water, 4 tablespoons of syrup, salt and the pumpkin pie spice in a pot. Bring to a slow boil, whisking occasionally.
  2. Reduce heat to low and add in the oats. Cook, stirring often for about 6-8 minutes, until the oats are fully tender.
  3. Remove the pot from the heat and stir in the pumpkin pie puree and 1/2 the remaining syrup.
