How to Make Pumpkin Oatmeal:
To make pumpkin oatmeal you'll simply combine all your ingredients together in a pot on medium heat and stir to combine. Once everything starts to boil, stir the oatmeal to avoid sticking to the pan. I like to keep stirring and cooking until most of the liquid has been boiled out of the oatmeal so it's not super runny, but if you like your oatmeal to have a bit more liquid, you can stop the cooking process sooner.
