In a small saucepan, combine the pumpkin puree, rolled oats, almond milk, maple syrup, and pumpkin pie spice. Simmer until milk has absorbed into the oats, about 5-8 minutes, stirring occasionally.
¼ cup pure pumpkin puree, ⅓ cup gluten-free rolled oats, ⅔ cup dairy-free milk, 2 tablespoons pure maple syrup, ½ teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
While the oats simmer, heat a small saute pan and melt the coconut oil. Add the diced apple pieces, maple syrup, and cinnamon. Saute until slightly softened, about 5 minutes. Toss in the chopped pecans.
½ teaspoon coconut oil, 1 teaspoon pure maple syrup, ½ apple, ¼ teaspoon pumpkin pie spice, 2 tablespoons chopped pecans
Place the oatmeal into a bowl and top with sauteed apples and if desired, a drizzle of nut butter (pecan butter is a great choice here). Enjoy immediately!
