    Pumpkin Pie Oatmeal

    Oct 7, 2015 • Breakfast, Festive/Holidays, Luteal Phase, Menstrual Phase

    Jump to Recipe·Print Recipe

    HIII!! It’s been a while.. I’ve seriously missed you guys!

    I’m finally all moved and settled into my new apartment – thanks to my parents and brother who helped me move the bigger things in AND went up 4 flights of stairs like a million times  🙂 they’re amazing and I could not have done it without them. 

    I really love it here so far and am beyond excited for this next chapter. I honestly can’t believe I’m here… and this apartment is actually mine for the next year… so surreal… but so amazing how things fall into place, right?! Taz is loving it as well, aside from the loud city noises (he’s a total scaredy cat) but I know he’ll be a city dog in no time.

    Do you guys want to see pictures of my little studio?! I’d be happy to do a post about it!

    Anywaysss, I have a super yummy and festive fall oatmeal recipe for you.. Pumpkin Pie Oatmeal. It’s luscious and healthy with ALL the good things. Perfect for a cold morning to warm you up alongside some hot pumpkin coffee (like this one that I’m obsessed with) and a cozy blanket. Sounds dreamy right?! It so is.

    Healthy vegan 'Pumpkin Pie Oatmeal'. Warming, comforting and lusciously creamy, this bowl of pumpkin goodness will get you feeling good and keep you full until lunch. From The Glowing Fridge.

    Pumpkin season is in full swing, although I have yet to get a PSL (a pumpkin spice latt? for anyone living under a rock) and I’m loving all the fall things. Roll your eyes all you want… I know you secretly love it too 😉 so this morning I made my watermelon cayenne detox juice and was literally frozen afterward which gave me the idea to create this comforting oatmeal to warm me up.

    It did just the trick. 

    In the summertime, I do lots of smoothies, juices and fruit for breakfast but once it starts getting chilly, I find myself switching to a warm bowl of oatmeal. Do you do that too? I feel like it’s a common switch. Starting your morning with nourishing oats is amazing for sustained energy and keeping you full until lunch. They’re packed with fiber and are quite possibly the best whole grain around! Low in fat and full of protein (6g per every 1/2 cup) you can’t go wrong with oats.

    I buy the bag of gluten free rolled oats from Trader Joe’s (so cheap!) and it lasts me quite a while. 

    For this bowl of pumpkin goodness you will need:

    • gluten free oats
    • canned pumpkin (not pumpkin pie filling)
    • mashed banana
    • chia seeds (optional)
    • pumpkin pie spice
    • cinnamon
    • maple syrup 
    • vegan chocolate chips (optional) but duh, why not?!

    Buy them here: vegan chocolate chips and crushed pumpkin seeds too, as a yummy topping 🙂

    Mash the banana and mix in the pumpkin pur?e.

    Pin Recipe

    Ingredients

    Scale
    • 1/2 cup gluten free rolled oats
    • 1/2 cup water
    • 1/2 cup unsweetened vanilla almond milk
    • 1/2 banana, mashed
    • 1/4 cup organic pumpkin purée
    • 1 tablespoon maple syrup (or coconut sugar/agave)
    • 1/4 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
    • 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
    • pinch of sea salt
    • 1 tablespoon chia seeds
    • additional 1/4 cup unsweetened vanilla almond milk
    • vegan chocolate chips (optional)
    • pumpkin seeds (optional)

    Instructions

    1. In a small pot, stir the oats, water and almond milk together and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer for 10 minutes until creamy.
    2. Meanwhile, in a small bowl, mash the banana and stir in the pumpkin purée and maple syrup along with the pumpkin pie spice, cinnamon and sea salt.
    3. Turn off heat and stir the pumpkin mixture into the oats with the optional chia seeds. Mix until well combined.
    4. I like to add extra almond milk at the end as well as it can get dry.
    5. Enjoy!!

      Thanks so much for sharing this recipe – we absolutely loved it! I didn’t even add the maple syrup, topped it with chopped dates instead, and added some coconut. I’m obsessed with pumpkin, so this is for sure a new favorite!

      Amazing recipe! Added cacao nibs and coconut shreds on top of mine and it was absolutely delicious. Serving size will last me a few breakfasts because it is so filling! Thanks for sharing.

      Hi Shannon, I just stumbled across your blog. I really love all of the healthy recipes but I’m wondering about calorie counts. Do you ever post them?

      I plugged this recipe in to myfitnesspal.com and before adding the syrup, chocolate chips and pumpkin seeds this recipe is already 470 calories with 106 g of carbohydrates, 8 g of fat, 10 g of protein and 23 g of sugar. Any recommendations or advice for keeping this a little healthier for someone who’s trying to loose some weight before summer kicks off?

        Hey Brittany! Honestly I never count calories or keep track of amounts, I’m just mindful and use my best judgement. I love this recipe because it’s so nourishing and everything is a whole food (minus the tiny amount chocolate chips) so instead of focusing on calories, I like to focus on ingredients. If you still want to cut back, you could omit the chocolate chips, pumpkin seeds and almond milk (use water instead) and omit or cut back on the maple syrup and use stevia instead. Hope this helps! Let me know how it goes.

        xo,
        Shannon

        I imported this into myfitnesspal.com as it was 193 calories 35g of carbs, 5g of protein, 4g of fat and 11g of sugar. I did change it to 2 servings and omitted the chocolate chips and pumpkin seeds. I sprinkled a few chocolate chips on top in full disclosure :P.

      So I made this the other day and loved it! Super delish (especially when topped with a few chocolate chips)! I curled up on the couch with my bowl and enjoyed every bite.

    HANDLE NAME CHANGE!! I’ve been wanting to do th HANDLE NAME CHANGE!!

I’ve been wanting to do this for a while as a fresh start with all the changes to my “brand” in the last year. It feels right to just use my name 😀 (fun fact: I haven’t taken my hubbys last name yet because of business paperwork that I’m too lazy to figure out 😅 name changes are complicated) 

@theglowingfridge started out of my love for the plant based lifestyle but so much has changed in the last 9 years and I’ve been itching to update. Nothing else will change and my blog will still remain as is, if you still use my recipes and such. Love you all and thank you for supporting me through all these changes 🤍🤍🤍

When my blood sugar is on a nasty rollercoaster, I’m not the best mama that I know I should be for my girl. I’m more irritable and short. So I prioritize protein, healthy fats and carbs at each meal. This helps me feel balanced and provides energy to play and chase after her all day! I need all the fuel I can get.

- collagen king coffee ☁️

    I don’t get ready everyday… But when I do I f I don’t get ready everyday…

But when I do I feel better, duh! And more confident. More productive. Happier in general. Of course I have super lazy days but I try to get myself together because I’m more likely to leave the house, you know mamas? I hate when people ask “why do you get ready if you’re home all day”.. 

I’m sharing different content like this because I feel like it and don’t want to be stuck in a box 😀

    I mean if you drink it everyday… It should be o I mean if you drink it everyday…

It should be organic, mold-free, tested for mycotoxins and taste delicious, etc. King coffee goes a step further with a therapeutic dose of reishi spores, the most powerful and potent part of reishi mushroom! Most other companies use the lucidum part of reishi, in case you’re wondering 👑

    passes & smashes for gut healing ❤️‍🩹 I passes & smashes for gut healing ❤️‍🩹

I have many more passes too.. extreme diets, too many supplements, gluten, juice cleanses, eating too fast and not chewing enough.. the list goes on!

Gut healing takes a multi-faceted approach and it’s never just one supplement to heal or one thing to do.

It takes time, patience and grace! And working alongside a practitioner you feel called to 🙏🏼
