About Overnight Oats
Looking for the taste of pumpkin pie without the guilt? This overnight oats recipe can be prepared the night before and is a great way to enjoy seasonal flavors. It was inspired by Trader Joe’s Pumpkin Overnight Oats, and is great with a dollop of whipped coconut cream on top.
Since I limit my intake of almonds (I have a slight sensitivity), I omitted the almond butter included in the original recipe. Add a tablespoon or two for some extra protein and for a taste that better imitates the original recipe!
