This rich and creamy oatmeal is the perfect winter breakfast. The oatmeal is packed with delicious and comforting flavor from a base of pureed pumpkin and warming spices like turmeric and cinnamon. The oatmeal comes together using similar ingredients to golden milk, a traditional Indian drink that is known to have anti-inflammatory benefits. Creamy coconut milk adds the perfect texture and provides the fat needed to improve absorption of fat-soluble turmeric.

1/2 cup

Pumpkin Puree

1 1/2 cups

Chia Seeds

1/2 cup

Water

1/2 tsp

Cinnamon

1 tsp

Turmeric

1/4 tsp

Black Pepper

Instructions
