    About The Ingredients

    Ingredients for pumpkin oatmeal on a metal tray - oats, pumpkin, almond milk, sugar.

    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.

    Notes

    *nutritional info does not include toppings.
    For Slow Cooker Method:
    If you have an oven-proof bowl that fits in your crockpot, a water bath is a great method to use to prevent any burned edges if you end up sleeping in. Simply place the bowl in your crockpot, fill the crockpot (outside of the bowl) about halfway with water, and pour your ingredients into the dry bowl. It cooks the food a little more gently.

      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??

        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.
