These Pumpkin Overnight Oats are full of warming pumpkin spice flavor, but require exactly zero cooking…just 5 minutes of prep and some chill time in the fridge. Made with oats, pumpkin puree, chia seeds, and Greek yogurt for a boost of protein, they’re filling, creamy, and one of my favorite meal prep breakfasts for that weird little summer-to-fall in-between season….or just always.

Pumpkin overnight oats that let you enjoy fall vibes, even if it still feels like summer.

If you’ve been around TNN for a while, you probably know that the second there is even a whisper of fall in the air, I start adding pumpkin to all the things. Pumpkin puree is SUCH an easy, no-prep way to add a little veg to a meal, and I am alllll about it. Especially with breakfast…because breakfast can be a hard one to get veggies into. My Pumpkin Pie Chia Pudding has been a reader favorite (and one of mine!) for years, and my Pumpkin Baked Oatmeal has become another fall breakfast staple around here. Both are gluten free, and it felt like high time we added some pumpkin overnight oats to the lineup too.

These oats are the *perfect* bridge between summer and fall. You get all those cozy pumpkin spice flavors when you’re mentally ready for fall, even if Mother Nature hasn’t quite caught up and it’s still way too warm to want to cook breakfast. These Pumpkin Overnight Oats take about 5 minutes to stir together and then the fridge does the rest. They’re naturally vegetarian and easy to make gluten free with certified gluten-free oats. I skipped the protein powder in the recipe because the Greek yogurt does a lot of heavy lifting in that department, but I also will whisk in a vanilla protein powder on the days when I want an extra boost.

I found while testing that they’re thickest and creamiest after chilling overnight, but a couple of hours will absolutely get the job done if you didn’t have the foresight to think about tomorrow’s breakfast tonight. The oats, pumpkin, chia seeds, and Greek yogurt make them hearty with a nice mix of protein and fiber, while maple syrup and pumpkin spice bring all the fall feels. Basically, 5 minutes of work tonight = a really good, creamy pumpkin-spiced breakfast waiting for you tomorrow.

Let’s make breakfast together. Just you and me…
