Notes
Pumpkin pie spice substitution: If you don't have pumpkin pie spice, you can add: 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon, 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger, 1/8 teaspoon ground nutmeg, 1/8 teaspoon allspice, 1/8 teaspoon ground cloves.
For extra protein, try adding a layer of greek yogurt. Add 1/2 a serving of overnight oats to a jar, add 1/2 cup greek yogurt, then top with the remaining serving of overnight oats. Note: this will require a larger container.
Dairy-Free: Swap out dairy for dairy-free alternatives like coconut yogurt and almond milk.
