Most of you probably know what overnight oats are, but just in case we have some newbies, here’s a simple explanation: overnight oats are simply plain rolled oats (not instant) that soak up liquid overnight in the fridge. You can use any type and combination of liquid/wet ingredients you like. Our favorite is unsweetened vanilla almond milk, coconut milk and/or Greek yogurt. You take the oats out of the fridge, give them a good stir, top with your favorite toppings and enjoy. There’s no cooking involved!

Enjoy pumpkin pie for breakfast with these healthy overnight oats! They’re super easy to prep, taste amazing and perfect for mornings when you have zero time to make breakfast.
