Pumpkin Spice Overnight Oats
Pumpkin paired with warming spices, such as the cinnamon, nutmeg, and ginger in this recipe, is one of the great flavor combinations in the fall. There is something so soothing about it, which might explain why starting mornings off with a bowl of these overnight oats is so appealing. Top with your favorite toppings such as chopped nuts or roasted pumpkin seeds.
