Although it is already towards the end of November which is supposed to be Autumn, the weather in Hong Kong is still so hot. I was still sweating at home in the afternoon with my short sleeves on. It seems that there is really something wrong with our planet 😞However, it won’t stop me from creating my own fall feeling at home. Since Autumn is the PUMPKIN season and pumpkin is one of my favorite veggies, I created this pumpkin pie porridge recipe so that I can at least experience some feeling of the fall in the morning, when the temperature is not yet too insanely high 🙌🏻 This recipe, similar to my other porridge recipes are simple, requires just a little number of ingredients and quick. So, please give it a try no matter what temperature you are having at your place. I promise you that you’ll definitely love it and won’t be disappointed.

1/2 tsp cinnamon
1 tsp pumpkin spice
