Pumpkin Spice Oatmeal

Pumpkin Spice Oatmeal - My Cooking Spot

I don’t care what anyone says. A season of pumpkin-flavored food is fine with me. I don’t believe in going overboard, no, but a little here and there is totally fine! I say we stop hating because it’s delicious. Lattés, toffee, oatmeal…

Yes, oatmeal! Every Halloween night should begin with the perfect breakfast jumpstart. This Pumpkin Spice Oatmeal is just that. I am a recent oatmeal convert, but this is my new favorite thing to eat in the morning.

My go-to combination is brown sugar with cinnamon swirled in, sometimes with apples or raisins too. But lately I’ve been in the spirit of fall, so I’ve been tossing in pumpkin pie spice instead. If you’re feeling really pumpkin-loving, you can stir in a spoonful or two of pumpkin purée, but the fall spices are just fine on their own. I like to top mine with pumpkin seeds for a little extra crunch. Enjoy!

What are your favorite fall toppings for oatmeal?
