Ingredients to Make These Pumpkin Chai Latte Overnight Oats

  • Non-dairy milk – The creamy base that softens the oats.
  • Brewed coffee – Adds subtle bitterness that pairs with pumpkin and chai spice. You can replace it with more non-dairy milk if preferred.
  • Pumpkin purée – Adds natural sweetness, fiber, and a vibrant orange hue.
  • Non-dairy yogurt – Creates a creamy texture and tangy contrast.
  • Maple syrup – Adds rich sweetness that complements chai spices. Any liquid sweetener of your choice can also be used in its place.
  • Spices: A blend of cinnamon, ginger, cardamom, nutmeg, allspice, and cloves enhances the recipe with the perfect blend of chai spices.
  • Salt – Enhances and balances out the flavors.
  • Old-fashioned oats – The heart of the recipe that provides both structure and chew, without turning mushy.
  • Chia seeds – Thicken the mixture and also adds in healthy omega-3s.
  • Yogurt and Maple Syrup (For Topping) – Add an extra touch of creaminess and sweetness before serving.

Equipment Needed

  • Large mixing bowl
  • Whisk
  • Mixing spoon or spatula
  • Small bowl for topping mixture
  • Jars or airtight containers for storage

Tips for perfect results

  • Use rolled oats, not quick oats, for the best texture.
  • Let the mixture rest before chilling. This helps the chia seeds gel evenly and the mixture thicken.
  • Adjust maple syrup to taste. The coffee adds bitterness that balances the sweetness.
  • For thicker overnight oats, reduce milk slightly. For a looser texture, add more after chilling.

Storage Instructions

  • Store sealed in the fridge for up to 4 days.
  • Keep the yogurt topping separate if you are not dividing the mixture into separate containers and top when serving.
  • You can freeze portions for up to 1 month. Thaw in the fridge overnight, stir, and top with the yogurt mixture before eating.
  • If you would prefer it heated, you can warm gently on the stove or microwave for 30–60 seconds, adding the yogurt mixture after serving or skipping it all together.

Serving Ideas

  • Add crushed pecans, pumpkin seeds, or hemp seeds before serving for crunch.
  • Top with banana slices or apple chunks for a fresh touch.
  • Drizzle with almond butter or peanut butter for richness.

Your Questions, Answered:

Can I skip the coffee?

Yes. Replace it with the same amount of non-dairy milk for a caffeine-free version.

Can I use store-bought pumpkin spice blend?

Yes. Replace the listed spices with 2 teaspoons of pumpkin pie spice mix.

Can I make this without chia seeds?

Yes. You can either remove them and reduce the milk slightly since it won’t thicken as much, or add additional oats in their place.

Is this gluten-free?

Yes, it’s naturally gluten-free, but be sure to use certified gluten-free oats if dealing with any allergies or sensitivities.

Can I use flavored yogurt?

Yes. Use unsweetened for control over sweetness, or vanilla for extra flavor.

If desired, transfer servings into individual jars or containers and top with a layer of the sweetened yogurt mixture and a sprinkle of cinnamon. Keep the yogurt topping separate if you are not dividing the mixture into separate containers and top when serving.
  5. Cover and place in the fridge overnight. Enjoy!
