Jump to Recipe - Print Recipe

These healthy orange and pumpkin overnight oats make for the perfect quick breakfast. Just mix everything together the night before to get a creamy mixture of tasty and zesty oats ready to go in the morning.

Being in a hurry in the morning does not mean you have to skip on delicious breakfasts! Overnight oatmeals are great to get your dose of nutrients to start the day right while making your busy mornings easier and tastier.

And this recipe is right on time as I am looking for more recipes to put myself into an autumn mood.

I feel like cuddling on the couch with a warm cup of coffee plus this delicious sweet raw oats breakfast. Maybe while reading a book in front of our fireplace.

WELL, THAT SOUNDS LIKE A NICE DREAM.

I also live with a 3.5 and a 2 year old, so this won’t actually happen. Actually, probably never for 10 more years. But, it is always nice to dream.

I have to say though that in my tornado-like intense morning routine with my two high energy children, this breakfast brings me huge comfort and satisfaction. I get my pumpkin fix and really feel like I’m treating myself.

There is a see through jar with a few layers of pumpkin purée in the bottom, then raw oats, then chopped oranges, then raw pumpkin seed and a sprinkle of brown spices. Behind, these is a glass with milk.

Ingredients to make these orange and pumpkin overnight oats?

These raw oats are so easy to make and definitely don’t miss on flavor. The pieces of orange are bursting with sweet juice and is so delicious when mixed in with the spiced and creamy oats. This breakfast is almost like eating a slice of rich and creamy pumpkin pie, but in a much healthier way.

You will need old fashioned oats for this recipe. Do not use quick cooking oats as it gets very mushy after soaking in the liquid.

For the creamy base, the oats are mixed with canned pumpkin purée, non dairy milk (I love using almond milk), maple syrup, pumpkin seeds, pumpkin pie spices mix and a hint of turmeric.

If you don’t have pumpkin pie spices mix, then you can swap for cinnamon with a dash of nutmeg. Also, check out this easy homemade pumpkin pie spice mix recipe if you want to make your own.

Also, don’t hesitate to add nut or seed butter when making this overnight oats. It adds so much creaminess! Pumpkin seed butter would go beautifully in this raw oat breakfast.

  • 1/2 navel orange diced
  • 2 tbsp maple syrup or to taste
  • 3/4 tsp pumpkin spice mix
  • 1 1/2 tbsp pumpkin seeds

Instructions

  • In a jar or a medium size bowl, combine all the ingredients. Cover and store in the fridge ideally overnight or at least for 2 hours. During that time, the oats will soften.
  • Once the oats are ready, eat straight from the jar. Top with more diced orange and pumpkin seeds if desired.
  • If you want to store the oats for up to 5 days in the fridge, then I recommend you keep the orange apart from the mixture and add the pieces of fruit the night before eating.

    This was an absolute treat to have for breakfast. Perfect oats for the September month when it’s not that cold outside, but you want something that tastes like autumn. I think the cooler temperature of the oats straight from the fridge somehow helps the pumpkin spice flavors really come through. My two-year-old enjoyed it, too. Made an ordinary morning feel special. Will definitely be making again!
