You’ll find the full printable recipe card at the end of this post. Now let’s take a look at what these delicious overnight oats have to offer.

Important ingredients

• rolled oats Be sure to buy old fashioned rolled oats. It’s not quick oats or steel cut oats. This is because rolled oats give the best texture. For preparing gluten-free dishes Be sure to purchase certified gluten-free oats, such as those from Anthony’s.
• Chia seeds. In addition to providing healthy fats, fiber, and minerals, Chia also offers a pudding-like texture that elevates these oats.
• milk. Dealer choice here Milk works well, as do almond milk, oat milk, and coconut milk. Each plant-based milk has a slightly different flavor. So feel free to try and find what you like best.
• Maple syrup. A slight maple sweetness makes this bottle of goodness very easy to consume. Out of syrup? Honey or agave nectar also works.
• Greek yogurt This is truly the hidden star of this formula. Greek yogurt makes a refreshing addition to your overnight oats and provides lots of invigorating protein for your morning. If you go vegan Be sure to use plant-based Greek yogurt.

Step by step instructions

2. Cover the container and place it in the refrigerator. Refrigerate for at least 3 hours, but 8 hours is ideal.

3. Add blueberries and sprinkle with nuts. fun!

Recipe tips, variations, and substitutions

• Get the right time. To get the perfect creamy texture but not sticky. Let overnight oats refrigerate for about 8 hours. Less and the oats will be chewier and more liquid. More and it will be a mess.
• Try using it with other berries. Blueberries are delicious and packed with antioxidants. But they’re not the only berries that work with this recipe. Try using strawberries, raspberries, or bananas (which are technically berries!).
• Up protein. One thing I like to do with this recipe is to add peanut butter, almond butter, or other nut butters. This will add extra protein and make your breakfast more filling.
• add spices I like oatmeal mixed with a little vanilla. But you can easily mix them. By adding cinnamon or cloves.
• Is it all gone? You can use flaxseed instead of chia. Whole flax seeds may not have the same texture. But adding a teaspoon of ground flaxseed can help create the jelly-like texture that chia seeds provide.
• go nuts Walnuts always go well with oatmeal. But you can use chopped almonds, pecans, or whatever you have on hand. Or skip the beans altogether.

Make advance/storage instructions.

Although the best texture is found within 8 hours, simple overnight oats These will maintain their quality. They keep this (and delicious) food in the refrigerator for up to 5 days, making it easy to prepare.

That means you can make a full week’s worth of breakfasts on Sunday evening without worrying about a thing.

When I make oatmeal a few days ahead, I like to use a little less milk during the prep process. Then, when ready to eat, add a little more milk to get the right texture.
