Autumn is my favorite season with its lively colors, comforting rainy days and fresh, crisp air. Only thing I don't like is the chilly weather but I found a perfect solution to this problem. Heartwarming breakfast food! Apple and pumpkin are great options during fall season to add to any of your dishes and they make oatmeal super creamy.






- 240 ml almond milk
- 2 tablespoons grated apple
- 2 tablespoons pumpkin puree
- 1 tablespoon maple syrup
- 80 g oats
- cinnamon
- pumpkin spice mix
- dried cranberries
- 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
- 1/4 tablespoon ground ginger

Directions
For the pumpkin oatmeal: Combine pumpkin puree, 40g of oatmeal, ground ginger, 1/2 tbsp vanilla extract, 120ml of almond milk, maple syrup, cinnamon and pumpkin spice mix in a saucepan over medium heat. Bring to a low boil then reduce heat to simmer. Stir regulary until a creamy and thick consistency is achieved (about 5 min.) Pour in a bowl and serve with desired toppings. I used dried cranberries.
For the apple oatmeal: Combine 120ml of milk, grated apple, 40g oatmeal, maple syrup, 1/2 tbsp vanilla extract and cinnamon in a saucepan over medium heat. Same method as with the pumpkin version, bring it to a boil then reduce heat to simmer. Stir regularly until it becomes creamy and thick. Top with apple, dark chocolate or even with almonds.
