Golden Milk Overnight Oats

I make this in my Instapot and just double the milk, don’t ask me why lol. I add raisins for a pop of sweetness and crushed walnut for some crunch, definitely going to try some pear as another reviewer suggested. Reheats great, it’s my new go to every morning – thank you for the recipe!

I struggle with breakfast because I never have a lot of time in the morning and very quickly get sick of most things. This recipe is so easy to make ahead and tweak to keep myself from getting tired of it! I also feel like I’m doing great things for my brain and gut health starting my day with a dish containing turmeric. I’ve been using coconut cream instead of milk – I use half the amount and then half water (and keep whatever cream I don’t use poured into a jar in the fridge, it seems to keep ok). I add in a spoonful or two of psyllium husk, mostly because I bought it for another recipe and want to use it up. And I love topping it with a couple spoons of grated pear that I also make ahead and keep in a jar in the fridge – along with the other toppings in the recipe too. The spice mix adds such a great depth of flavour!

This recipe is SO easy and so yummy! I’ve now made it a few times – I batch prep on Sunday for the week and it couldn’t be easier, since there’s literally no cooking required. Subbed almond milk for coconut milk, and still tasted delicious! The golden spice mix is divine and the almond butter makes it thick rather than watery (without having to rely on yogurt or other dairy based products). It’s definitely an acquired taste of spices if you’re not used to the turmeric, ginger and pepper (i.e., make one serving before committing) but such a burst of flavor without being clawingly sweet in the morning! Keeps me full until lunch too. Thank you for this awesome recipe!

Really tasty. I added banana and next time will try some of the coconut suggestions!

We love this recipe, and make it almost every evening for breakfast the next day! We use soy milk and peanut butter, and add bananas and sometimes strawberries or frozen blueberries. Finish it off with honey and it’s sooo tasty!! Super quick to make and simple clean up!

I just finishing making this, and like all Minimalist Baker recipes, it did not disappoint! I was nervous about how it would taste with the spices, but it tastes just like a warm cozy blanket! So delicious and so soothing. I added more almond milk in the morning to loosen it up, some vanilla granola, along with raspberries for a tangy topping. As someone who loves chai tea, this is a new favorite!

I made this with a bunch of substitutions with what I had on hand – oat milk for coconut, hemp for chia, tahini for almond butter, honey for maple syrup – and had it sit in the fridge for only maybe 5 hours before eating it. Turned out great! To anyone reading these comments, I recommend the tahini especially :D

Love love love this! I make it for breakfast almost every day with a variety of substitutions for milk and nut butter–all delicious! I also put a nice handful of frozen fruit and a scoop of protein powder in the mix for some extra heartiness.

I tried this recipe today and I loved it very much so it will become one of my favorite ones to do for breakfast or dessert!!! Plus I love the species and almond butter!!! Thank you so much!!! So many recipes that I want to try from you!!!

These are the BEST overnight oats I’ve ever had. My boyfriend agrees. I make it as the recipe states but I use canned light coconut milk. It’s fantastic with sliced banana and a drizzle of maple syrup, but if you really want to treat yo self add some coconut whip! 🤤 Thanks for another amazing recipe!

I was a bit skeptical about the flavor profile. I was especially suspicious of the black pepper in my oatmeal. I could not have been more wrong. I love the spices used in this version of overnight oats. They are delicious and so healthful! I HIGHLY recommend giving this recipe a chance, you will not be sorry. I have eaten it for 4 days in a row with different fruit toppings (banana, mango, pear, and blueberries). So yummy! Thank you for all your proven vegan recipes. I can always count on your recipes to impress ❤️

Lovely taste, nourishing and healthy – what else can you ask from a breakfast?! I made them with plant-based kefir so came out even creamier! Thanks for the recipe.

These golden milk overnight oats are on a whole other level of being good! I eat overnight oats almost everyday during the week for lunch and while they are good making them this way has totally upped the game. The spice is perfect, the coconut milk is such a nice soft flavor, and adding all of the toppings makes the taste even better. Highly recommend!

These are delicious! I didn’t think I could like anything more than the peanut butter overnight oats but these might be my favorite. I used canned light coconut milk because that’s what I had but would start making my own coconut milk just to have it on hand for these oats.

i loved these oats! i added soaked whole almonds since i was out of almond butter, a little extra almond milk when first mixing and then even more maple syrup and almond milk when i heated it all up the next morning, as i didn’t really want it cold—and these oats were perfect! warming, spicy, easy. i made the golden spices recipe to have in milk for later and definitely included the nutmeg and cloves. i think next time i’ll add even more ginger to the mix. lovely recipe!
