Notes

You do need a vegan protein powder for the pumpkin protein overnight oats. This is what absorbs the liquid in the recipe to make the oats thick and not watery. Fermented protein powder works best but any pea protein will be okay.
Don't mistake pumpkin pie filling with pumpkin puree.
Unfortunately, whey protein won’t work.
It’s up to you on the kind of cream cheese you choose. I get a local one so that it doesn’t use sunflower or safflower oils but use what you have. Make sure it’s softened before trying to beat it.
To make it vegan, use maple syrup in place of the honey for the cream cheese topping. It may not be as thick though.
You can make these pumpkin pie overnight oats as indulgent as you like by topping them with things like toasted pecans, extra cinnamon, or if you’re feeling like dessert oats, the dairy-free caramel sauce will take it to a whole new level.
