  1. I almost always add pumpkin to my oats, but this recipe just takes it to another level! Looks like this will be happening, oh, I don’t know, TODAY. 🙂

  2. Why you gotta post this after you know I’ve retired the pumpkin?! Fortunately I haven’t retired custard and I ate the entire inside of the lemon cream pie I made yesterday…

  3. I haven’t broken out the pumpkin in ages but you’re making me think that they need a reappearance 😉 And cinnamon chips! Ah! I’ve had them once a few years ago and I made scones with them, but I haven’t been able to find them since. Which is awful because they were amazing.

    • kissmybroccoli says:

      Oh I bet those were some damn good scones! Honestly, it took me a while to like the cinnamon chips…they were just a bit too strong for my liking in the beginning…but that was probably because I was just trying to eat them straight up. Just as soon as I realized they were better MIXED in stuff, my bag was empty! Ha!

  4. YAY!!! I’m glad you’re in such a good mood 🙂 I am too! It’s FRIDAY!!!!

    And holy monkeys, that looks DELICIOUS!

  5. This not only sounds good but the pictures have me drooling! I see butter extract/flavor in a few of your recipes, I really need to give it a try!

    • kissmybroccoli says:

      Oh girl, it’s the best! That and maple are probably my most used extracts! Totally takes things to a whole new level!

  6. Lyric says:

    I love pumpkin all year round; the only problem I have is using it all up once I open the can… However this recipe does look delicious and I may have to open up a can very soon…

  7. YUM! Haha I’m breaking the pumpkin back out too! I meant to make some pumpkin muffins yesterday but they didn’t have canned pumpkin at my Trader Joe’s anymore and I felt weird walking into another store with all my TJ’s groceries… I’ll have to pick some up when I’m out today or tomorrow!

  8. KAT says:

    Man, I’ve got to get myself some of those extracts!! I have a peppermint extract and for some reason, chocolate peppermint oats have been my go to. Weird, considering Christmas is LONG gone now, but maybe its because Love Day is coming up? Who knows…
    I’m getting stingy with my pumpkin again since my supply is getting low but these looks delishhh. I just need those extracts now! Iherb here I come!

  9. Sounds great, which is funny since I’m not even really sure what custard is. haha Is it like ice cream? Pudding? Neither? I must know!

    • kissmybroccoli says:

      It’s like a really thick pudding made from cream and egg yolk…and you can also make FROZEN custard which is like 298563863 times better than ice cream! 😉

  10. Hahaha – I love the recycles graffiti of my logo. 😉

    Theis one of my favorite ways to eat oats – the texture is so decadent between the pumpkin puree and the egg.

    P.S. Is your garage still filled with cans of pumpkin?

  11. Purelytwins says:

    yay for pumpkin!! we just made our pumpkin bread yesterday to use up some canned pumpkin 🙂 so we are still loving pumpkin things!!

  12. Cassie says:

    I am currently eating a pumpkin waffle… it’s always pumpkin season for me! So much fiber and so many vitamins… and I’ve only added egg whites to oats, yours look so creamy… gonna have to go whole-yolk!

    • kissmybroccoli says:

      Yay for a fellow pumpkin lover! 🙂 And oh girl, if you like egg whites, you’ll flip over a bowl with a whole egg! SO flavorful!

  13. I was totally going to ask about those chips, but you already answered my question. I love all the toppings in this, plus the whole egg inside. Makes me happy; it doesn’t hurt this looks absolutely delicious either, even with the pumpkin.

  14. Umm… you didn’t prepare me enough for that much deliciousness that filled this post! I blame you for my growling stomach now. 😉

    Warm, delicious oats for breakfast? Especially with these flavors? YES PLEASE.

    You never fail me. Ever.

  15. Reminds me of our little weekend together, talking about custard oats! All about the toppings though!! Yum!

  16. Whole eggs in oats are a MUST. Does the butter flavour really taste like butter? That is…I have no words. You have extracts and flavours for everything.

  17. Sarah says:

    I recently found your delightful blog. I love all the color in your foods! I look forward to continue on following what you whip up!

  18. Ok this may have just convinced me to try adding a whole egg to my oats – it looks delicious! I just need to go out and buy myself some pumpkin. I can’t even remember the last time I had pumpkin oats, which is really weird for me!

    • kissmybroccoli says:

      That IS weird! You and I are the QUEENS of pumpkin oats! And omg, you’ve GOT to tell me what you think with the whole egg…even though I know you’re gonna love it! 🙂
