I am so excited for this recipe because I have felt like I am in a breakfast rut and I love pumpkin things this time of year.
What a great idea for all of my Pumpkins!
Looking forward to breakfast!
Every morning I find myself craving jumbo pumpkin/chocolate chip muffins, I make this instead. Sometimes with chocolate chips, sometimes without. Does the trick every time. 🙂
Did your apple cinnamon overnight oatmeal, trying this one next!
I made this without any sweetener in the slow cooker and just served it drizzled with 1-2 tsp of maple syrup. Delish!!! Going to be a fall staple in our house.
I have made this several time. This time added currents and cranberries in my bowl and put the oatmeal on top. Let it sit for a few minutes and drizzle a little pure maple syrup. Sooo good!
I have made this twice- we love it. I divided the leftovers and stored in the fridge for quick breakfasts or power snacks. I love doctored up oatmeal, and this is one of our favorites!
I'm starting WW this weekend, what's the pts per serving and how many servings does this make?
Margo, This recipe was submitted by a guest and nutritional info was not included. We’re hoping to have data added to these recipes in the near future. Thanks!
I wasn't fond of it. The idea is good but the Pumpkin Pie Spice is not. Depending on your "mix", my oatmeal wound up overloaded with cinnamon, which was too much. I would use the actual spices for pumpkin pie instead.
this was really good – added a bit more water – and added cinnamon on top when I took out my serving no issues re-heating didnt have to add extra moisture
How long will this last in the fridge?? I'm the only one in my family that will eat this.
Karen, I’d prefer to eat within a few days.
It will be good for about 2 days.
Can this be made in a 6 qt. slow cooker or does it need.to. Be the smaller size so it doesn't burn?
Robin, 6 Qts is a little large but I think it should still be fine. Keep us posted! 🙂
A 6 Qt Slow Cooker will work fine.
This sounds delicious! Excited to try it as my husband and I eat oatmeal almost every day for breakfast during the week…breaking up the monotony is always nice! Is this something that can be doubled? I would be using a 7-quart slow cooker. Thanks for all the fabulous recipes!!
Jen, Yes, doubling the recipe should work fine. You’re so welcome! 🙂
Thought this was delicious.The only problem I had with it was the consistency.I like a chewy,grainy oatmeal and this was gummy.Anyone have any ideas?
Think I could do this with rolled oats instead of steel cut?
Karl, Definitely! Just be sure to adjust the liquid for rolled oats.
