Pumpkin spice overnight oats are the tasty autumn breakfast you've been looking for
Oat milk — which was recently added to the Merriam-Webster dictionary — is everywhere. And pumpkin spice is also seemingly everywhere, at least this time of year.
Oat milk brand Planet Oat has designed a recipe for the meeting of the two ingredients: Pumpkin spice overnight oats.
This recipe takes only 5 minutes to prep and yields four servings making it great for meal prep purposes if you're planning ahead, or a Saturday breakfast at home with the family.
The best part? Overnight oats are adjustable to your own taste. So, if you don't want maple syrup, use honey — or, if you want to serve without yogurt, you can nix that, too.
