Pumpkin Oatmeal

My kids requested oats for breakfast. So I decided to sneak some good stuff into it and added some pumpkin. Normally roasted pumpkin or similar doesn’t interest my two in the slightest (they will eat butternut squash and sweet potato). But added to their oats with some cinnamon, well what can I say. They devoured it.

You can add any kind of fruit to this and drizzle with maple syrup (although it doesn’t need it if adding fruit, as the sweetness of the fruit is enough).
