Pumpkin Oatmeal

Posted on | November 24, 2008 | No Comments

I’ve been making things with pumpkin lately and we had some leftover that needed to be used.  Our daily oatmeal breakfast would be boring if we weren’t always playing with the ingredients. Mix those and you end up with pumpkin oatmeal. 

1/2 c old fashioned oats
1/2 c vanilla soy milk
1/4 c pumpkin puree
1/8 to 1/4 tsp cinnamon
dash of cardamom
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
1 T agave syrup
Toppings (choose from pumpkin seeds, dried cranberries, almond butter, peanut butter or raisins)

Blend everything but the toppings and oats into a puree. The Magic Bullet made quick work of this. Put the oats in a microwave safe bowl, stir in the mix you just blended up. Microwave until done, stirring every 30 seconds so the oats don’t overflow. This usually takes 60 seconds in my microwave. 

Top with some pumpkin seeds and craisins or maybe 1/2 T of almond butter and some raisins.
