Why Use JOI for This Recipe

Here at JOI, we’re passionate about helping you create delicious, nutrient-dense meals with a clean label and minimal waste.

JOI Almond Milk Powder, made from just one ingredient, pure almonds, is perfect for anyone looking for simple, high-quality options in their diet. Here’s why it’s the ideal choice for these Chocolate Pumpkin Spice Oats:

  • Clean Label: Unlike many store-bought almond milks, JOI Almond Milk Powder contains no additives or gums. You’re getting pure almond goodness without any extras.
  • High in Protein: As a plant-based protein source (10g per serving!), JOI Almond Milk Powder provides a nourishing boost to your oats, helping to keep you fuller for longer and support muscle health.
  • Shelf-Stable: JOI’s almond milk powder is shelf-stable, so it stays fresh longer than traditional almond milk, reducing waste and giving you flexibility with storage.
  • Sustainability: JOI is a concentrate, meaning you add water yourself. This leads to a reduced carbon footprint due to less packaging and transport. Plus, our packaging is made from post-consumer recycled plastic, and the powder format reduces food waste because you make only as much as you need.

By choosing JOI, you’re supporting both your health and the environment – all while enjoying delicious recipes like these Chocolate Pumpkin Spice Oats.

Substitutions and Customizations for Chocolate Pumpkin Spice Oats

This Chocolate Pumpkin Spice Oats recipe is as adaptable as it is delicious! Whether you’re looking to switch up flavors, cater to dietary preferences, or add extra nutrition, here are some easy ways to customize your oats to fit your needs.

And remember, any JOI concentrate can be used in this recipe – whether you’re a fan of almond, oat, hemp or cashew, our concentrates make it easy to create your ideal milk base.

  • Milk Options: While this recipe uses JOI Almond Milk Powder, you can easily swap in any JOI concentrate

  • Sweeteners: We used maple syrup, but you can switch it up based on your preference. Honey, date syrup, or agave syrup are all great choices.

  • Spices: Not a fan of pumpkin spice mix? Try focusing on single warming spices like cinnamon or turmeric instead. You could even add a pinch of cardamom for a fragrant, chai-inspired flavor. 

  • Add-Ins: Make these oats even more punchy by mixing in your favorite add-ins. Flaxseeds or extra chia seeds add fiber and omega-3s, while a scoop of protein powder or a JOI concentrate paste can give a boost of protein and healthy fats.

  • Yogurt Choices: We used a plant-based vanilla yogurt, but any variety will work here. Feel free to go with a plain yogurt for a less sweet option or Greek yogurt if you’d like an extra creamy texture and added protein. Or skip it entirely.

  • Toppings: The chocolate drizzle adds a delicious richness, but feel free to get creative! Fresh fruit, coconut flakes, granola, or a handful of nuts can bring a satisfying crunch and flavor variety.  Or skip the chocolate coating and mix in chocolate chips instead.

This recipe is all about flexibility, so make it your own by trying different JOI concentrates and ingredients to match your personal taste.
