Description
Creamy and nutritious Blueberry Overnight Oats are a quick and easy make-ahead breakfast that is both healthy and delicious.
Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- 1 cup Rolled oats (Old fashioned oats give the best texture for overnight soaking.)
- 1 cup Milk of choice (Dairy milk makes it extra creamy, but any plant milk works too.)
- 1/4 cup Greek yogurt (Optional, but adds richness.)
- 1 tablespoon Chia seeds (Thickens the mixture.)
- 1/2 cup Blueberries (Fresh or frozen.)
- 1 tablespoon Sweetener (Maple syrup, honey, or mashed banana.)
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla (Enhances flavor.)
- 1 pinch Salt (Brings out the flavor.)
Instructions
Preparation
- Add rolled oats, chia seeds, and a pinch of salt to your jar.
- Pour in milk and add yogurt if using. Add vanilla and sweetener.
- Stir well to ensure the chia seeds are not clumped together.
- Add blueberries, stirring some in and saving some for the top.
- Cover and refrigerate for at least 6 hours; overnight is best.
- In the morning, stir and add a bit more milk if too thick. Top and enjoy.
Notes
These oats stay fresh in the fridge for 3 to 4 days and can also be frozen in a freezer-safe jar for later use. Add toppings like nuts, fruits, or seeds for extra flavor.
