Hello! I made an amazing pumpkin oatmeal this morning and wanted to share the recipe. Pumpkin season officially starts tomorrow, wait I mean Fall – Fall begins. Same thing, right?
First, I hit up the gym this morning super early for a group class. I really want to find some good (read: make me sore) classes to change it up and get in some cross training.
On the way home I stopped at the store for seltzer (addicted) and pumpkin (craving). I made a huge bowl of oatmeal with oats, pumpkin and egg whites. It’s packed with whole grains, healthy fat and protein. Boom.
Pumpkin Oatmeal Recipe
- 1/2 cup instant oats
- 3/4 cup water or almond milk to cook oats
- 1/3 cup egg whites (or 2 egg whites)
- 1/3 cup canned pumpkin
- season with: stevia or sugar, pumpkin pie spice, dash salt
Directions: Cook oatmeal to package directions (I cook them in the microwave but stove top works if you’re cool like that). Add egg whites, cook 30 more seconds. Stir. Add pumpkin, cook 30-45 more seconds. Stir. Add in sweetener and spice. Cook an extra 30-60 seconds if you want it thicker. Top with walnuts, almond butter, chocolate chips, goldfish or whatever you want.
I love how simple yet delicious this pumpkin recipe is! Cant’ wait to make it over the weekend. My favorite thing about the fall is pumpkin!

Love all things pumpkin and oatmeal. I’m embarrassed to admit that I never thought of using egg whites. I’ll definitely be giving this a try.
YUM. Need this in my life. Lovin’ all things pumpkin this time of year 🙂
I never thought about putting egg in the oatmeal. That is a great idea.
Bring on the pumpkin! These oats look awesome! I’ve never been very creative with breakfast, but THIS I might have to try!
I love fall! The food is pretty solid during this season too 🙂
After seeing your pumpkin oatmeal, I am now a solid 10. That looks amazing, definitely going to have to make that like, everyday until spring. Love that it’s so easy to!
Am I the only one who eats pumpkin year round???
Apple pie, butternut squash!!! Roasted pumpkin seeds!!! I’m in love. But I have to agree with Sarah…the fresh fruits and vegetables of summer make me happiest.
Hi from Canada!
It’s still super summery here but yeah, I’m excited about fall spices and apple things.
11!! I’m obsessed with anything pumpkin! I wait all year for pumpkin season!
I’m going to miss summer but I am looking forward to more fuzzy socks and hot drinks time.
I am at about a 6-7! I think I will be more amped for all of the Fall food once it gets cooler

If I had to choose a season for food, I’d pick summer. Berries, stone fruits, melons… all the best things. I couldn’t give a shit about squash. The end.
