This Blended Overnight Oats recipe is an easy, healthy, make-ahead breakfast packed with fiber and protein.

Ingredients

  • 1 cups Old-Fashioned Rolled Oats (Note 1)
  • 3/4 cup to 1 cup Almond Milk (add extra 1/4 cup for runnier texture (Note 2))
  • 1/2 cup Plant-Based Yogurt
  • 2-3 tablespoons Maple Syrup (Note 3)
  • 1 tablespoons Chia Seeds
  • 1/2 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
  • 1/4 teaspoon Cinnamon
  • 2 tablespoons Vanilla Protein Powder (Note 4)

Directions

  1. 1

    In a blender, add all the ingredients, starting with the minimum amount of almond milk. We all have different tastes. I like mine runny, like a thick smoothie, but some like it thicker. It's always better to make the blended oats too thick and thin out the next day by adding more milk.

  2. 2

    Blend on the high-speed setting, speed 10 of a Vitamix blender, for 20 to 30 seconds or until smooth and creamy. It should be thicker than smooth but still easy to pour into bowls. If too thick and difficult to blend, add more milk gradually, up to 1/4-1/3 cup extra. The mixture thickens in the fridge overnight.

  3. 3

    Pour the mixture into three sealed glass mason jars. Close the lid and refrigerate overnight.

  4. 4

    The next day, open the jar, stir and taste. Adjust with sweetener or add a splash more milk if too thick to your liking. Stir well to incorporate.

  5. 5

    Serve with a drizzle of peanut butter, desiccated coconut, crushed peanuts, and berries.

  6. 6

    Store for up to 3 days in a sealed jar in the fridge.
