About The Ingredients
You will need:
- pureed pumpkin – don’t confuse this with pumpkin pie filling. This canned pumpkin does not include the added sweeteners and spices and pumpkin pie filling and has a different consistency. So make sure you choose pumpkin puree off of the shelf
- almond milk – using almond milk in place of water in this recipe really gives it a creamy finish. I like to use the unsweetened original flavor almond milk.

Pumpkin Oatmeal FAQ
Pumpkin puree is rich in vitamins, minerals and antioxidants, making is a nice healthy food.
Canned pumpkin is just that – cooked, pureed pumpkin. There are no added sugars or spices.

I loved the topic you wrote on. It was an amazing ride of some great work.

Instant pot kept giving burn warning and wouldn’t come to pressure. I did as the instructions said. What do you think could’ve caused this??
Kadee says
Sometimes if your ingredients are too thick, the pressure cooker will burn it. Try adding the ingredients in this order:
2 cups almond milk
1 cup water
1 c steel cut oats
1 c pure pumpkin purée
1/2 c dark brown sugar
1/2 t cinnamon
1/4 t salt
1 t vanilla extract
2 T butter melted
DO NOT STIR. Cook, and stir after cooking.
