Pumpkin Spice Oatmeal

We are going on week 8 on our kitchen remodel….which also means week 8 of no kitchen!  Never have I appreciated the modern convenience of the dishwasher so much!  Without a kitchen, we’ve been using my single burner that I use for blog videos, and the Instant Pot for virtually all cooking (and I’ve got a new Instant Pot recipe coming up next week!).  This cozy bowl of Pumpkin Spice Oatmeal came together one morning when David and I wanted something a little more special for breakfast than our go to toast!  Super simple, cooks on 1 burner (ha!), and fast to make too.  It was a win!

Warm flavors of pumpkin, agave or maple syrup, and DIY pumpkin spice mix—cinnamon, ginger, clove, and nutmeg—come together to start your morning off right!  You could just use store bought pumpkin spice blend as well.  Whatever you have handy!  If you go the DIY route, be sure to use just a dash of cloves—they are easily overpowering!

Fall Flavors

Anyone else have pumpkin fever?  I feel this self imposed pressure to make as many pumpkin flavored things as I can think of during October and November, because I feel like you’re not supposed to use pumpkin after the fall.  I know it’s available year round these days, but I really make my fall months count!  Just in the past few weeks I’ve shared recipes for Mac and Cheese with Pumpkin, Pumpkin Patch Chocolate Bark, and Pumpkin Spice Syrup, and that hardly scratches the surface of my pumpkin obsession!  Oh, and a couple of good apple recipes to round off the fall flavors—Apple Cinnamon Instant Oatmeal and Homemade Applesauce!

Look how easy it is to make Pumpkin Spice Oatmeal!

Ok, enough chit chat!  Let’s make breakfast!  Be sure to give this simple recipe a try—it would be perfect for Thanksgiving week—even something quick and light before cooking all day on the big day!  If you make it be sure to post a pic to social media and give me a tag!  {@frieddandelions // #frieddandelions}
