  1. Very good with some tweaks to taste (added some salt, cinnamon, and used brown sugar instead of splenda). This is very customizable and yummy.
     
  2. Good idea but definitely not the recipe for us. Even after quadrupling the sugar (used real sugar- no artificial sugar in this house), adding copious amounts of nutmeg, cinnamon, and vanilla, all we can taste is pumpkin. No sweet, no spice, just pumpkin. But I like the idea so I'll play with the amounts. Thanks for the idea though!
     
  3. Very tasty breakfast. I cooked this in the microwave for about 5 minutes and it worked well. Also, I added ground flax, stevia, pecans, cinnamon, and milk instead of water. It was a nice change from my regular oatmeal and I'd definitely make it again. Thanks!
     
  4. What a fantastic idea! I had some leftover canned pumpkin from another recipe and thought it might be good in oatmeal. I wanted a simpler recipe than the others I found on Zaar and this one fit my needs perfectly. I used quick-cooking oats and skipped the sweetener (I'm cutting back on real and artificial sugars). I was in a hurry, so I used the microwave with good results.
     
  5. I am still getting used to pumpkin in oatmeal -- but this was very good! I left out the cardamom, as I didn't have any, so it could have used a bit more spice. I used two packets of Splenda and one packet of instant oatmeal, 2/3 cup water, and 1/2 cup of pumpkin. I microwaved it for a minute and a half and it turned out perfectly. Thanks for posting!

  1. I added salt and brown sugar instead of splenda to taste while it was cooking. I also added a bit of vanilla and substituted cinammon for the cardamom. Very yummy!
