Number of Servings: 2

Ingredients

    1 c. nonfat milk
    1/4 firmly packed light or dark brown sugar
    1/4 cup canned pumpkin (or you can use sweet potato puree)
    1 tsp. vanilla extract
    1/4 tsp. pumpkin pie spice or cinnamon
    1 c. old-fashioned oats
    Optional add-ins:
    2 tsp. natural peanut butter
    dried fruit and nuts
    pure maple syrup

Directions

2 servings

Combine milk, sugar, pumpkin, vanilla and spice. Bring to a gentle boil and stir in oatmeal. Reduce the heat and simmer for 2 to 3 minutes, until the oatmeal is soft and creamy.

You can add 2 tsp. natural peanut butter at that point, if you wish. I also like to cook in raisins. But I kept the nutritional data without these two add-ins.

Jessica also suggests you can add maple syrup.

Variation: Add 2 tbsp. sweet potato to 1 c. oatmeal. Add 1/4 c. milk and 1/4 c. water. Add cinnamon to taste and top with maple syrup or brown sugar.
