Pumpkin Spice Overnight Oats

Pumpkin spice overnight oats are a no-cook breakfast dish that combines rolled oats with pumpkin purée, milk, and warm spices, resulting in a creamy and slightly thickened texture after chilling. The mixture is assembled the night before, allowing the flavors to meld and the oats to absorb the liquid for a ready-to-eat morning meal with a velvety finish.
