    Vegan pumpkin overnight oats are such an easy breakfast for meal prep, so I came up with this fall-inspired oat recipe for you.  Yep, I’m part of the “everything pumpkin once fall starts” club.  No oven or stovetop is needed for these pumpkin pie-inspired oats.

    The overnight oats use pumpkin pie spice for that familiar fall flavor and a bit of peanut butter to add a little something special to tie it all together.  If you don’t have pumpkin pie spice, you can use ground cinnamon to give it some extra flavor.  

    The pumpkin peanut butter overnight oats only take about 5 minutes to put together and can be used for snack time or even as a healthier dessert with a dollop of coconut cream. 

    If you’re looking for more pumpkin oatmeal recipes, I have a pumpkin steel-cut oat recipe.  The recipe utilizes the instant pot but it also has instructions for the stovetop. For more overnight oat recipes try cinnamon overnight oats, applesauce overnight oats, basic overnight oats with flaxseed, mango overnight oats, or chocolate peanut butter overnight oats.

    What are Overnight Oats?

    Overnight oats use a method of softening uncooked oats without cooking them.  Instead of cooking your oats in the microwave or stovetop with liquid, they are soaked in liquid for at least a few hours or overnight.  The result is a creamy consistency for a cold no-cook method for making oatmeal. 

    Storage

    These overnight oats will keep for about 3-5 days in the refrigerator when stored in airtight containers.  

    Meal Prep

    The recipe is for just one serving, but it can easily be made in bulk.  On Sunday night my family and I make our oats for the work/school week.  I reuse cleaned-out peanut butter jars with their lids.  

    I line the jars up and put in all of the ingredients to make a weekly batch for everyone in the house.  Prep once, clean once but have breakfast for five days.

    Tips 

    • These vegan pumpkin overnight oats need to soak for at least 2 hours for the oats to absorb the liquid, but they get super creamy when left to soak overnight.  
    • If you like a thinner consistency, add a little more plant-based milk before consuming it.
    • Add maple syrup to suit your preferences for sweetness.

    Substitutions

    • Almond butter can be used instead of peanut butter.
    • Sunflower butter can even be used for a nut-free version of these vegan pumpkin pie overnight oats.
    • Use ground cinnamon instead of pumpkin pie spice.
    • The ground flax seed can be substituted with chia seeds.  I’m not a fan of a 1-to-1 substitution in oats, it’s just too many chia seeds for me.  So I’ll reduce it to 1 to 2 teaspoons of chia seeds, but substitute according to your liking.
    • Maple syrup can be substituted with agave syrup or your sweetener of choice.

    Toppings

    • Toasted or candied pecans
    • Dried cranberries
    • Pepitas
    • Chocolate chips
    • Coconut yogurt 
    • Oil-free granola

      Oh man, these are GOOD! They taste like pumpkin pie! They're filling, because, well, oatmeal; but they're not too heavy. I can't recommend these enough for somebody trying to get a taste of fall, or just somebody that likes pie for breakfast!
