I have been trying to free up some space in my freezer lately and I have been coming across some amazing finds. My most recent discovery was some pureed pumpkin that I had frozen earlier in the winter when I had more than I had needed. I had also recently come across the steel cut oats in my cupboard and I thought that pumpkin pie oatmeal would be a nice treat for breakfast. You could easily make this with any kind of oatmeal but I prefer the steel cut oatmeal for its chewier texture. Steel cut oatmeal takes a bit of time to cook and I don't really have the time to make in on weekday mornings but a rice cooker with a timer and a porridge setting is the perfect solution. Waking up to the smell of the cooking oatmeal in the morning and knowing that it will be ready by breakfast time is always nice. After the oatmeal was done cooking in the rice cooker I transferred it to a small pan and added the pumpkin, some brown sugar and pumpkin pie spices. The pumpkin pie oatmeal was great! It was just like eating a bowl of pumpkin pie for breakfast. I wonder what I will find in my freezer next...
