Ingredients:

• 1/3 cup canned pumpkin puree (NOT Pumpkin pie filling)
• 1/4 cup (1/2 packet) plain oatmeal (old fashioned oats can also be used)
• 1/2 cup water or unsweetened almond milk (1/2 cup unsweetened almond milk is about 20 calories)
• 2 tsp Splenda or other no calorie sweetener
• 2 TBSP Sugar free pancake syrup (about 20 calories per serving like Mrs. Butterworths) 
• 1 tsp Pumpkin pie spice (or to taste)
• I also like to add 1 TBSP raisins, yummmmm.

Directions: 

1. Cook oatmeal. 
• If using instant oatmeal and microwave, cook in intervals no longer than 1 minute and 30 seconds as the oatmeal might boil over. I suggest even putting a plate under your bowl just in case. Typically shouldn't take longer than 3 minutes depending on amount of liquid used. 
• Old fashioned oats take longer, about 15 minutes, since you need to use your cook top)
2. Once water or almond milk is fully absorbed add pumpkin and syrup. Mix and continue to cook until warm. (prob 20-30 seconds in microwave; 1 minute on stove top)
3. Remove from heat and pour into bowl. Add remaining ingredients and stir. 
4. Enjoy! You can even make this ahead of time to eat cold.
