Notes

Vegan protein powder works best for the pumpkin puree overnight oats as it absorbs liquid the best. However, if you use whey or beef protein, reduce the coconut milk by one tablespoon.

Make sure your dairy-free cream cheese is softened before you mix it. Any cream cheese can work. If you want to cut calories, omit the cream cheese topping and just use a light drizzle of dairy-free caramel sauce or chopped nuts.

To make it vegan, use maple syrup in place of the honey for the cream cheese topping. It may not be as thick though.

Store the oats in the fridge for up to 4 days.
