I absolutely love this pumpkin collagen oatmeal. It has the most delightful creamy pumpkin flavor, with lots of festive Fall spices. It’s like pumpkin pie, but in healthy stovetop pumpkin oatmeal form!
There’s a lot of fiber in this recipe thanks to the pumpkin puree and the rolled oats. There is also extra protein thanks to the collagen peptides inside.
