  • Total Time: 8 hours (including refrigeration)
  • Yield: 1 serving

Ingredients

Base Ingredients

  • ½ cup old fashioned rolled oats
  • ½ cup coconut milk
  • Pinch of sea salt (optional)

Optional Mix-Ins

  • 1 tablespoon chia seeds
  • 1 tablespoon protein powder (vanilla or chocolate)
  • ¼ cup yogurt
  • ½ cup fresh fruit (diced peaches, frozen cherries, or fresh berries)
  • 2 tablespoons jam (raspberry or mixed berry)
  • ¼ cup shredded coconut
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon maple syrup

Instructions

  1. Combine the ingredients: In a clean 12-ounce airtight jar, add the oats, coconut milk, and optional pinch of sea salt. Include any of the desired mix-ins such as chia seeds, protein powder, yogurt, fruit, jam, shredded coconut, vanilla extract, or maple syrup.
  2. Shake to mix: Seal the jar tightly and shake vigorously until all the ingredients are well combined and evenly distributed.
  3. Refrigerate overnight: Place the sealed jar in the refrigerator and let it sit overnight, or at least 6-8 hours, to allow the oats to soak and absorb the liquid, softening to a creamy texture.
  4. Serve and enjoy: After refrigeration, give the oats a good stir before eating. The overnight oats can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 4 days, making it perfect for meal prep and quick breakfasts.

Notes

  • Adjust the thickness by adding more or less coconut milk depending on your preferred consistency.
  • Mix and match your favorite fruits and jams to keep breakfast exciting.
  • Using protein powder enhances the nutritional profile, especially important for active individuals.
  • Add chia seeds for extra fiber and omega-3 fatty acids.
  • This recipe is vegan and can be made gluten-free by ensuring oats are certified gluten-free.
