Pumpkin Spiced Oatmeal

With the arrival of fall what better way to heat things up than with a warm bowl of oatmeal. This recipe comes from Neil Barnard's newest book...The Get Healthy Go Vegan Cookbook

1/2 cup gluten free oats (regular)*
1 cup water
1/4 cup raisins
1/4 cup pure pumpkin (canned)
1 tsp brown sugar
1/8 tsp nutmeg
1 tsp vanilla extract
1/2 tsp cinnamon

Mix ingredients in a bowl and heat for 4 minutes on medium setting in microwave. Makes around 2 cups. I sometimes add chopped apple to this oatmeal hence the reason why my oatmeal picture has apple in it but the recipe does not.

*I get my gluten free oats at the Bulk Barn their called Only Oats their cheaper than Bob's Red Mill gluten free oats which I saw at Fontinos supermarket.
