Pumpkin Pie Overnight Oats FAQs

Can I use steel-cut oats instead of rolled oats?

Rolled oats work best for this recipe due to their quicker absorption. You can also use steel-cut oats if you don’t mind a chewier texture. Keep in mind that steel-cut oats may require a longer soaking time.

Can I make this recipe without Greek yogurt?

Absolutely! Greek yogurt adds creaminess. You can substitute it with regular yogurt or a dairy-free alternative for a similar effect. Adjust the quantity based on your preference to maintain the desired consistency.

How long can I store these overnight oats in the refrigerator?

These Pumpkin Pie Overnight Oats can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days. Here’s a helpful article that answers your overnight oats questions.

Remember to keep the jar tightly sealed to prevent them from drying out.

How can I customize Pumpkin Pie Overnight To Make Them Different?

To make your pumpkin puree overnight oats stand out, you can add a unique twist or additional ingredients that set it apart. Here are a few creative ideas:

Orange Zest: Grate a bit of fresh orange zest into the mix. The citrusy brightness will complement the pumpkin and spice flavors, adding a refreshing twist.

Cranberry Compote: Layer a spoonful of homemade cranberry compote between the oats. The tartness of cranberries will balance the sweetness and enhance the fall feel. Another thing to try is to add some concord grape sauce.

Vanilla: For an extra layer of yum, add the seeds of a real vanilla bean to the mix.

Toasted Pumpkin Seeds (Pepitas): Sprinkle some toasted pumpkin seeds on top. These give it a bit of crunch.

Chai Spice Blend: Replace or combine traditional spices with a chai spice blend.

Gingerbread Cookie Crumbles: Crush a small gingerbread cookie and sprinkle it on top for a festive touch.

Dark Chocolate Shavings: Grate a small amount of high-quality dark chocolate into the oats.
