Pumpkin Pie Oatmeal

I have had two giant containers of old-fashioned oats sitting in my pantry for what seems like forever! Naturally, when I stumbled across a recipe for pumpkin pie oatmeal, I had to give it a try! Extra bonus: this recipe came from Budget Bytes, which estimates the cost per serving as only $0.46.

This recipe reheats really well, and is very dense. I tried it with milk a couple mornings, and that gave it a thinner consistency. I left the milk cold, and that was a little weird. You probably should heat the milk up if you eat it that way.

Then a couple days ago, I decided to reheat it with some sugar-free maple syrup. That was a winning decision! It added a little more sweet flavor, without adding too many calories. I hope you can enjoy this recipe as much as I did!

I think this recipe is a keeper when it comes to fall breakfast - so I am linking up with "It's a Keeper Thursday". You can link up as well, just click the button!

Without further ado, here's the recipe!
