Ingredients and Substitutions
You only need a few simple ingredients to make these amazing pumpkin spice overnight oats. They are truly the best breakfast for fall and are loaded with pumpkin flavor. Here is what you’ll need:
- Rolled oats – this is the base of the recipe, I used Bob’s Red Mill Rolled Oats. You can use gluten free as well.
- Protein powder – I added protein powder to give this overnight oats recipe a nice boost of protein. I love vanilla protein powder for the flavor but you could also use chocolate or pumpkin flavored if you prefer.
- Pumpkin puree – canned pumpkin puree gives this recipe that wonderful pumpkin flavor.
- Milk – the milk is mixed with the other ingredients to allow the oats to soak up all of the amazing flavors and become nice and soft. I used unsweetened soy milk but any milk will work.
- Chia seeds – I love adding chia seeds for more volume, creaminess and fiber in this recipe. Feel free to leave them out if you don’t like chia seeds.
- Maple syrup – a little bit of maple syrup gives this recipe a nice natural hint of sweetness. You could also use agave or honey.
- Pumpkin pie spice – for that warm pumpkin fall taste we all love!
- Salt – just a pinch to round out all of the flavors.

Will steel cut oats work?
Rolled oats work better for overnight oats because they soften and absorb liquid without becoming too mushy, creating that thick, creamy texture you want. Steel cut oats will work but will become mushier.
