Pumpkin Spice Oatmeal
Description
Pumpkin Spice Oatmeal combines pumpkin puree with old fashioned oats cooked in a mixture of milk and water. The warm spices from pumpkin pie spice and the richness of vanilla extract create a gently spiced porridge that is both creamy and naturally sweetened with maple syrup. Cooking the oats until tender yields a soft texture balanced by the crunchy pecan topping. This recipe is simple but captures seasonal pumpkin flavors without overpowering the oats. Maple syrup and pecans garnish the finished bowls for added texture and taste. It can be served as a wholesome breakfast to enjoy comforting autumn flavors with each spoonful.

Instructions
- Whisk the milk, water, pumpkin, maple syrup, pumpkin pie spice, vanilla and salt together in a large saucepan and bring to a simmer over medium heat.
