Microwaveable Pumpkin Spice Oatmeal
From Anna Monette Roberts, POPSUGAR Food
Notes
If the cooked oatmeal isn't sweet enough for you, drizzle honey or maple syrup on top.
Ingredients
- 1/4 cup pumpkin puree (not pumpkin pie filling)
2 tablespoons almond butter (I used one packet Justin's Almond Butter [1])
1 packet pumpkin spice oatmeal or 1/2 cup plain instant oatmeal seasoned with pumpkin spice seasoning (I used one packet Nature's Path Pumpkin Spice Chia Hot Oatmeal [2])
Splash of nondairy milk, optional
Flake salt, to taste
Additional pumpkin spice seasoning, dark chocolate chips, and/or honey for garnish
Directions
- Add pumpkin puree and almond butter to a mug and mix until fully combined. Stir in oatmeal. If mixture is too dry, splash a bit of nondairy milk and continue mixing. Press mixture down until it's flat.
- Microwave for 2 minutes or until oatmeal becomes slightly translucent and the top becomes spongy and cake-like.
- Garnish with flake salt, a sprinkling of pumpkin spice seasoning, dark chocolate chips, and/or honey.
