Three Simple Overnight Oats Recipes
If you’re in need of a delicious, quick breakfast idea, I’ve got you covered! I have been making these overnight oats for years now and they are so good. The best part is that you can prep several at a time for the week and just pop them in the fridge. Perfect for the work week! I’m sharing my three favorite ways to make these today. The directions are the same for all since the ingredients are just slightly different. If you prefer, you can always add more liquid. I personally like my oats a little more dry.
Directions:
- Place all ingredients in a Tupperware container or a mason jar and stir.
- Store in the fridge overnight, or until ready to eat (these will keep for 2-3 nights).
- Microwave for one minute when you’re ready to eat!
Blueberry Chia:
- 1/2 cup almond milk
- 1/2 cup old fashioned oats
- 1/4 cup fresh or frozen blueberries (I typically use frozen because they keep better)
- A few drops of vanilla extract
- 1 tbsp chia seeds

Banana Bread:
- 1/2 cup almond milk
- 1/2 cup old fashioned oats
- 1/2 banana, sliced
- 1 tbsp chocolate chips
- A few drops of vanilla extract

Cherry Almond (my personal favorite):
- 1/2 cup almond milk
- 1/2 cup old fashioned oats
- 1/2 cup frozen cherries
- A few drops of almond extract

You can also add 1 tbsp chia seeds or flax seeds to any of these for a little extra healthy fats (it really doesn’t change the flavor). These go perfectly with a side of eggs, sausage or a protein shake for a full meal. Each recipe makes one serving.
