Peanut Butter Overnight Oats (5 Ingredients!)

Made this last night and just finished eating some for breakfast. It was so good! I wasn’t sure it would be because I used some Keto nut butter I had leftover, but it was yummy. I usually like things crunchy, so I used some granola that had little chocolate nibs in it as a topping, and it just made my morning! I did find a couple of mushy chunks in it that I didn’t like, and when I took one and spread it out on a napkin, it was a clump of the chia seeds. I wonder if I can leave that out next time? Next time, I want to try it without the peanut butter and mix crunchy peanut butter in afterwards to see if I like that even better. Thanks for the recipe!

I made this all the time and it’s always delicious and filling! Thank you!

I make these every now and then. Since I’m a breastfeeding mom and I workout, I double the recipe. I LOVE these! They definitely feel full when I eat them and they’re healthy. Highly recommend.

Super good! Only had quick oats but they were still awesome even just while assembling it, hopefully the texture will be okay in the morning despite using quick oats! I’m breastfeeding so I’m trying to eat oatmeal every day. Followed the recipe besides using cows milk instead of a plant based milk and added about 1 tsp of vanilla and we only had Jiff peanut butter. Very tasty!

Have always hated oatmeal and this has almost changed my mind. Still playing with the right amount of liquid and ingredients to get the perfect mouthfeel, but it’s a game changer for breakfast. Ty!!

I’m not usually a cereal lover but this recipe looked really appealing. It was fabulous. I did reduce the amount of peanut butter (1 tbs. chunky) and used stevia instead of syrup. Added raspberries in the morning. It was filling, delicious. and healthy. Will definitely make it again.

Definitely a must try especially if you love peanut butter. No funny aftertaste like a lot of recipes out there. Will definitely fill you up as I was only able to eat

This was delicious.. I followed the recipe exactly, I thought there was too much peanut butter, so I made it again using less, and it was perfect. Thank you for sharing this.

I made this for my 11 and 9 year old kids and it would be an understatement to say that it was a huge hit. We topped it with banana and it is amazing. They have asked for this every single day for breakfast for the last week. Thank you for such a great family friendly recipe!

I made this with Bob’s Red Mill High Fiber Oat Bran cereal. Excellent hot or cold, and so filling, I had to save half for my morning break. This also changed my mind about chia seeds. I might even try chia seed puddings now.

The best oats I have ever had! It tastes very naughty like having dessert for breakfast.

Thanks for posting this recipe! The flavor was great- however, the consistency was more like a paste in the morning. I would say the proper ratio of milk to oats is 2:1 (1 cup milk to 1/2 cup oats). I would also add vanilla and cinnamon to give that extra extra!

This recipe is my favorite! Great portion, great flavor, but best of all – no excuses to eat junk on hectic mornings!

The base recipe (almond or cow milk) with peanut butter is still my favorite, with some frozen strawberries throw in. By the morning they are soft enough to mush up into the oats! I’ve also tried it with a protein shake as the liquid, and eaten for lunch. I have been trying different milks and nut butters, but so far the basic has been best.

I can’t believe I haven’t jumped on the overnight oat bandwagon until now. Thank you Minimalist Baker!

My partner made this for me as an easy grab and eat breakfast which is handy as I very recently had discectomy surgery and can’t really stand to make food at the moment.
Changed it up a bit by using light coconut milk instead of milk and added fine chopped bits of banana to it too. As it was mixed in and kept in the fridge the banana didn’t go brown. I really enjoyed it and found it very filling so one jar of this lasted me two days. Thanks for the recipe minimalist baker x

I’m eating this now and it’s delicious! I read other reviews and added a sprinkle of cinnamon after I heated it up for 1 minute. Adding to my list of quick breakfast recipes and meal prep. So easy and yuuummm thank you!

This was my first time making overnight oats and I’m so glad I used this recipe because it was yummy goodness!!

I put them in the fridge the evening before so it was about 15 hours before I ate them. I did add in some cinnamon before soaking them and added granola and strawberries after soaking.

The only change I would make would be to reduce the amount of peanut butter, it was a little overwhelming. All in all.. SO good and a recipe I will use again and again. Thanks!!

I just love this. It’s like eating an entire bowl of Reese’s peanut butter cup….. but healthy. This is SO DOGGONE EASY to make in the evening (2 mins?) and grab-and-go in the morning – perfect as I’ve been getting back into the swing of working At The Office instead of WAH. Also, I’ve kind of fallen in love with chia seeds.

Delicious! I have Hashimoto’s disease, and follow the AIP diet with reintroductions, so gluten-free oats work for me. I made this with oat milk (Elmhurst brand), unsalted natural peanut butter, and honey instead of maple syrup. Hopefully it works out – peanuts have been an iffy food in reintro, so I may have to find different additions, but even just they honey would be tasty! I also thought about using pistachios instead. Cocoa powder/cacao nibs with the honey…so many options! Thank you for a fantastic and easy recipe.

I pull this recipe out every summer when the thought of cooking breakfast just becomes absolutely abhorrent in a house without central air. My family adores it from the toddler on up, and there is nothing better than going to bed knowing you have an extra nutritious breakfast all ready to go… and easier than cereal! Very easy to play around with and adjust based on my mood too. We are transitioning to a Whole Foods Plant Based diet and I am this spending more time on your site than ever. Thanks for being consistent and simple and amazing. We had your caramelized mushroom risotto for dinner too tonight and my husband asked “How is this so good? Did you put meat in it?” 😂 Love MB always.

I LOVE LOVE this recipe. It’s my take to work breakfast. I top it with tons of blueberries and just the tiniest pinch of salt. It’s SO GOOD, y’all!

This is by far the best overnight oats recipe! I’ve shared this recipe with a few friends and everyone’s loving it. Thank you so much. I can’t wait for breakfast time.

Fantastic! I’ve never been inclined to comment on a recipe before, this one changed that. Flavors and texture were spot on. I’ll be making a double batch tonight to last the rest of the week. I used Trader Joe’s old fashioned oats and they definitely require more liquid. Didn’t realize which site I was on, now it makes sense why it’s so good. We have been using the Minimalist Baker cookbook at home for years. The ginger-colada smoothie is an absolute staple in our house. Thanks for another great one!

My daughter loved this! She said it is better than the usual overnight oats recipe I make. Thanks so much.

I made this for the first time and it was delicious! Definitely making this part of my daily routine!

I made this recipe exactly how you said to and for me, it yielded a much too thick treat in the morning. I’m going to make it again tonight but I will make one change, double the almond milk and it will be perfect in every way. This is a personal preference only, otherwise, it is delicious!!

I used oat milk and increased the chia seeds to 2T and it was fantastic. I also sprinkled ground cinnamon and cardamom before serving!

I used to eat banana and peanut butter overnight oats, but when I was nursing bananas didn’t sit well with the baby. I started using this one and it’s the best I’ve tried so far.

I quadruple this recipe twice a week and eat this for breakfast every day. I love it. Thank you!!

I made it using this unsweetened oat milk and almond butter instead of peanut butter, and even so, I think 1 tablespoon of natural maple syrup made it almost inedible because it was too sweet! Otherwise it seems like a wonderful recipe but for those of you who aren’t major sugar people: beware! I would start with 1 teaspoon of sweetener and increase based on taste from there. I will definitely make again but adjust the syrup level way down.

Definitely the best overnight oats recipe I have tried!

It was amazing love it definitely recommend this recipe to anyone

I’m loving this recipe!! I use honey instead of maple syrup. Since my first batch was a bit dry, I increased the almond milk to 3/4 cup. I think the brand of oats I used is a bit heartier than most so the extra liquid was necessary. The single serve batch is very filling and extremely satisfying. Well worth the calories especially since if I eat these for breakfast midmorning, I’m good until dinner :)

I have been trying to lower my cholesterol and have eaten these every day for 2 weeks. Love them! I also use oat milk and bump up to 3/4 of a cup. I like them hot – really hot – and I add a full chopped up banana and it’s like banana bread… delicious! Sometimes I add some cinnamon, too.

This has changed our breakfast routine. It is so delicious. Definitely a recipe we will keep making forever. Highly recommend!!!

This recipe was super easy to follow, I subbed almond butter for a more mild flavor and it paired nicely with fruit. The consistency was perfect! Not too thin or too thick. Had this for breakfast at 8 am and full the entire day!

I’ve made this already several times. It is quick to make yet it is full of goodness. Even my husband loves it who isn’t so much into healthy breakfast. Thank you Dana! Another genius recipe!

Amazing! I used 1T raw honey and crunchy natural PB. Sooo good. Everyone was a fan.

Love this recipe! I prefer it with a little extra almond milk so it isn’t too sticky, with bananas and some cinnamon on top. Perfect easy breakfast!

Amazingly filling, super quick, grab a breakfast out of the fridge and nom nom nom.

I haven’t always been a fan of overnight oats but this was delicious! Will definitely add this to my breakfast favourites. Topped with strawberries, blueberries, walnuts and seeds.

I have made tons of breakfast oatmeals. By 10 AM, I was so hungry I would have gnawed at my own arm. I gave this recipe a try. At first I was “put off” by the number of calories (New Year’s Resolution). But, holy smokes, this is wonderful, healthy and most important to me… makes it all the way to lunch. Thanks for sharing!

I change up the milk, add different fruits, some nuts for crunch, etc. to vary the recipe but will keep this one in the rotation year round!

These are literally the best overnight oats I’ve ever eaten. I made a half recipe but used the full recipe’s amount of milk and added some chocolate peanut butter protein powder by KOS and it made it so so good. I didn’t think I’d be as into it since most overnight oats are hit or miss for me but this was great, I’ll probably make this a couple times a week from now on.

This was absolutely amazing!! Perfect, quick breakfast for those hectic mornings. Loved that it was so easy to make too. Didn’t have any milk in hand so I used 2 parts water and 1 part coconut cream. Turned out super creamy and delicious! Also used almond butter instead of peanut butter, and added fresh raspberries and a small handful of chocolate chips. Definitely recommend this recipe!!!!

Love this overnight recipe for a quick breakfast grab on busy mornings! The proportions are perfect. I made many variations of overnight oats and my favorite is this recipe with using oat milk instead of almond milk and 3-4 diced dates instead of maple syrup. Thank you!

I think I have made this recipe 30-40 times. It never comes out anything but perfect no matter what I add to it. It’s actually going to be my lunch tomorrow. Sometimes two breakfasts are a good thing.

I’ve been using this for ages. The nut butter gives it a more fulfilling flavor. I use almond butter and sometimes peanut butter. I generally sprinkle it with cacao nibs,
cinnamon or nutmeg and add frozen blueberries/raspberries. I have it either with plain yoghurt or vanilla bean coconut yoghurt (COYO).

Sometimes I add organic nutrient powders like mushroom cacao or longevity/immunity to make it a gorgeous bright color (not sure if they’re available internationally but I buy Mindful Foods Star Dust Powders locally) .

I prefer to use frozen fruits because they keep the oats a nice chill temperature for my commute to work. I love that this meal can be made days in advance and it’s great that you can mix up variations so it doesn’t feel like you’re having the same breakfast every day. Thanks for the recipe.

Best overnight oats ever! The measurements of each ingredient are spot on and I wouldn’t change a thing…and I’ve made this over a dozen times. Nicely done and thank you :)

So good! This a perfect formula for overnight oats. I’ve eaten them every weekday morning for a week, and they provide me enough energy to chase my 2 small kids around until lunch! Thanks!

This was great! It’s like a cross btw overnight oats and chia pudding, which is a good thing. Also can be made vegan, with all ingredients I already had on hand. I added some mini chocolate chips right before eating and it was a treat. Next step: see if my oatmeal hating toddlers will eat it (if not, more for me!).

i liked the video but i didn’t show the measurements.

This recipe is amazing! I am a die hard eggs and potatoes gal…this is ALMOST better! Cholesterol is getting high…need to get some gf oatmeal in my diet. Forgot to make it the night before a few times…still works, however I like the consistency of doing overnight better

I have to be honest overnight oats have not been my jam; the recipes are often lacking flavour or the texture is off putting. However, I have made this a couple of times now and it will be part of my breakfast repitoire. It reminds me of a peanut butter and banana sandwich, so I changed it up a bit to reflect the nostalgia. The base of the recipe was followed; however, in the morning, I added a bit of water and cinammon and heated it through, then tossed in a half banana and a couple of chopped walnuts. Might take out 1 Tbsp of nut butter next time to make up for the walnuts or add some chia jam. Delicious!

Delicious!

Delicious! Never tried overnight oats, this was the first recipe I tried. I substituted honey for the maple syrup and it was delicious. Will definitely make this a regular!

I had made the overnight oats with yogurt recipe and didn’t like it. Then found this recipe. Perfect! I don’t like peanut butter, so used raisins instead. Yummy!

These oats are my new favourite lunch! A super easy-to-make snack/breakfast/lunch, these oats are delicious and filling. I’ve started adding a bit more milk to mine, as I prefer oats a bit milkier (roughly 1/4 cup more works well). As well, adding a bit of desiccated coconut as a garnish is great. Thanks for the recipe! :)

These oats taste delicious! I’ve been making these regularly now ever since my first time. I use one tablespoon of chia seeds instead of 3/4 because it’s easier to measure out and doesn’t make that much of a difference for me. For some people, I would also recommend adding a couple tablespoons more milk, but I haven’t done this myself as I am okay with the texture as it is.

Simply amazing! What can I say, MB nails it everytime. I am a nutrition major and will definitely recommend this recipe when I am a Registered Dietition. It’s very filling with all the healthy fats from almond butter (my nut butter of choice!) and the chia seeds help keep you “regular” if you know what I mean ;) I am so grateful for this recipe xo.

We LOVE this Peanut butter overnight oats recipe. My daughter never wanted oatmeal for breakfast until she tastes these – and the bonus is she enjoys helping make them as well! After reading some of the other reviews, we reduced the peanut butter to 1 TBSP, and we use hemp seeds instead of chia seeds (just personal preference – I don’t like the gelatinous consistency of chia seeds). I have not noticed any lack of thickness by using hemp seeds. The maple syrup gives it just the right bit of sweetness without it being too sweet. We prefer to eat the oatmeal warm, so 1 to 1 1/2 minutes in the microwave and then top with some chopped pecans and strawberries – sometimes a little extra milk is needed as well. Absolutely delicious and keeps us full until lunch. Thank you for an excellent recipe!

Fantastic. Loving it for the quick prep, high protein and general deliciousness. I thought I’d love the chocolate-almond milk sub but actually liked it less than the classic version. There was a change in texture I didn’t love.

Keep up the good work–I come here often to look for healthy and vegan recipes.

Loving this recipe! As someone who loves oatmeal, but finds it takes too long to make on rushed mornings, and it’s too hot to eat during the summer, cold overnight oats are perfect! I put it together the night before, then toss it in my lunch bag and eat it when I get to work.

I also enjoyed adding some shredded coconut mixed in for some texture and flavour.

I’ve been making overnight oats for a while now but I love this particular recipe with the chia and peanut butter to make it more substantial. For me, it needs a bit more milk. When I run, I always need a little something easily digestible to get out the door so, a little of this before I go, and then the rest to look forward to when I get back with some fresh fruit.

I make this recipe almost weekly because it’s THAT perfect! The consistency is delightful and it make breakfast incredibly easy to not have to warm anything up. I usually top with fresh berries or mango. Thank you for helping me find such a delicious, easy, and nutritious breakfast that doesn’t involve eggs!

I saw this on your blogs’ instagram story and immediately went to make it! It only took 5 min to put together and after waiting a few hours it turned out so delicious, thick, and perfectly sweetened. This recipe will for sure become a staple breakfast/snack :)

THIS IS MY DADS FAVORITE RECIPE. I wish he would learn to make it himself but seriously he is a routine guy and this is his go-to.

WOW! Where has this been all my life??? Thank you so much for this quick, simple, YUMMY, life savor! My mornings are hectic, to say the least, and I needed a quick breakfast for myself and kids. I used regular cow’s milk as that’s all I had, and organic brown sugar. I skipped the peanut butter this time, but that mistake will be remedied the next batch.

I’ve made this dozens of times and can’t believe I have forgotten to write a review until now; it’s super easy and delicious! I often use 1/2 tablespoon honey to sweeten and close to 1 tablespoon of chia seeds (though I never measure). I use dairy milk now, but in the past I have tried soy and almond milks, too, which both result in a creamy base. My favorite flavor combo is crunchy peanut butter (for texture) with a bit of cacao powder for a Reese’s-inspired breakfast :)

Thank you for such an amazing recipe! It is literally my go to breakfast in the morning. So quick and easy to prepare, minimal clean up and convenient! Highly recommend to anyone who is in a rush to eat breakfast :)

Another total keeper! I have been making this recipe for over a year. I love how it tastes with the overnight preparation, but if I’m feeling impatient, I just put the almond milk and oats in a bowl and microwave for a minute before adding everything else. Lately I’ve been loving it with store-bought chocolate sea salt granola to add more texture.

Oh my goodness… so so delicious! These overnight oats are PERFECT for a large family on the run! It takes literally two minutes to put together and after leaving it in the fridge for six hours, it is ready to be eaten! I used agave nectar instead of maple syrup and it worked out great :) I highly recommend this recipe!!!

This is so good I want to eat it all day long ! I sleep better just knowing it’s waiting for me in the fridge to be enjoyed in the morning :-) it’s that good ! Such a simple and delicious recipe :-) and those peanut butter swirls…yum yum yum…

This was my first time having overnight oats and this came out DELICIOUS! the only change I made was I used almond butter instead of peanut butter because it’s what I had in the house and I love it!!! So so sooooooo good! Thank you for the wonderful recipe.

Easy breezy to make and SO delicious. After I make and swirl it around I want to start eating it immediately! I use sweetened soy vanilla milk and a little sprinkle of turbinado sugar. Also, I have some homemade concord grape jam from my cousins and put a bit on top in the morning… pb&j yes please! Such a treat, filling, and love that it’s all ready to go in the a.m.! I heat mine up then pour a little more milk on before eating. Also don’t forget a little pinch of salt, makes the flavor even better. I make 2-4 servings (love the easy clicking for more Dana!) and store in an air-tight stainless steel container to eat over a couple days.

I cannot believe how good these are!! — so creamy and delicious! It was so hard to share half with my daughter as I wanted it all to myself (plus more!!) . I used cashew butter and did more chai seeds, less maple syrup.

This was so good and kept me full past lunchtime!

The only oats recipe I actually enjoyed eating!! Thank you!

I love this recipe. It’s so easy and delicious and keeps me full all day. I’m a college student (with limited fridge space and very busy days) and these are great. I tried making it with honey at first because I didn’t have any maple syrup, and it was good, but definitely a stronger sweet flavor. I prefer the maple syrup. Thank you!

This was great! First time I’ve seen an overnight oats recipe that did not include yogurt. It was delicious, and also surprisingly very filling!

Thanks for the recipe. I made it and I’m not a huge peanut butter fan but this was great. I used coconut milk and coconut nectar instead also I left out the chia seeds. I wanted to try it first before I involved my family and lets just say that they are up next!

I may be late to this “overnight oats” game but this recipe is now a family favourite! I knew I would love it ? (and I did) but child and hubby both request it regularly! Love the protein in this. Followed your directions exactly and always comes out creamy and flavourful ? Now we used whole milk and all still great ?

This is so delicious but doesn’t have enough liquid. I made it with oat milk and almost doubled the oat milk. I also omitted the maple syrup because oat milk is pretty sweet. I made a batch for the morning, tested it the night before, and ended up eating the whole thing that night and immediately making another.

Delicious! Will definitely make this one again.

Great! Did have to add note milk in the morning but my little guy loved it!

I absolutely love this recipe, and have shared it with all my family and friends. I usually add a tablespoon of yoghurt to make it extra creamy. Thank you for posting it!

Just started trying overnight oats, and it helps that there are so few ingredients that result in something delish, satisfying, and healthy! Followed the recipe exactly, with the exception of dicing a little banana and mixing it in w/ the other ingredients. Oh, and I used monk fruit granulated sugar instead of maple syrup. Thanks~my sis and I totally enjoyed this.

This recipe was delicious! It is my go to meal!

I love this recipe! It’s super customizable (I add some protein powder and different toppings every day) and now that I’ve made it a few times, it only takes me a few minutes to prep! It keeps me full for so long and is so filling – in a good way :)

This is absolutely delicious! This is definitely going to be my go-to overnight oat recipe. I made it per the recipe and enjoyed every bite. So yum!

Great recipe! I prep 2-3 servings at a time and eat throughout the week. I have an allergy to tree nuts, so I use oat milk. I also use honey instead of syrup, and I add in a little cocoa powder to make it chocolate peanut butter flavored!

This was easy and delish! I followed the recipe exact. Straight out of the fridge, it did come out very thick/pasty. I warmed it for about a minute, then stirred it and topped it with banana and it was perfect
– thick but no longer pasty. If you want it thinner, I think adding is some extra almond milk before you warm it would work perfectly. It is a little higher in calories than I want for breakfast, so next time I will probably drop the PB down to just one tablespoon as it was plenty Peanut Buttery. I used Bob’s Red Mill Extra Thick GF rolled oats.

Great recipe! I use only one tbsp of peanut/almond butter and one tsp of maple syrup. Also add some cinnamon. The next day I will add walnuts and some chocolate chips to make up for the less maple syrup ;) it’s soooo good. My husband loves it too!!! I could eat this everyday! Thank you!!!

Delicious! I made 3 on Sunday to eat for breakfast and finished them today, and made two more to finish the work week!

I have to say I was pleasantly surprised, this was so delicious!! I used quick cooking oats, cause that’s all I had; but I just added a little more milk to thin it out and then heated it up in the microwave just fine. I also added like a 1/2 tsp of cinnamon, added blueberries and crushed pecans on top, used Vanilla Almond nut butter and left out the maple syrup and added a pinch of brown sugar. Might not have been super healthy; but it was really good and very filling.

Life changing!!!

Soooo good!! I made it (honey instead of maple syrup) and add raspberries and dried cranberries for topping.

I really enjoyed these. Very filling and I even forgot the chia seeds. I will make this again. Thanks for sharing.

I tried this a few days ago and have been eating it for breakfast every morning. I love the flavor and how satisfying it is. I know this sounds kind of unhealthy for a breakfast, but I have been adding about one tablespoon of mini chocolate chips which makes it taste like a chocolate chip, peanut butter cookie, oat cookie. This is my new favorite breakfast recipe and thank you so much for creating this awesome recipe!

Holy smokes! I was seriously skeptical but this came out so yum. I added just a heaping teaspoon of banana jam (if you haven’t had it….you should definitely try it. It’s sublime). Breakfast for 5 in less than 5 minutes. Finding jars to hold these took way longer so I just used glass Tupperware. Thank you for sharing and being a really wonderful sister. She is lucky to have you.

Love this versatile recipe. I topped with granola from your Banana Bread Granola recipe. Looking forward to trying the carrot cake version.

Just made these last night and ate them this morning. I followed the recipe using almond milk and almond butter with maple syrup to sweeten and regular whole chia seeds. I found it to be super dry and gummy, not creamy at all. I added more almond milk and microwaved it, hoping to save it, but it was clumpy and still not creamy. I just don’t think there was enough liquid. I did like the flavour with the almond butter and maple syrup, but just not the texture at all, I’m sorry!

Absolutely amazing!!! Love this breakfast so much. My only modification is I use ground chia seeds instead of whole ones because I prefer the consistency.

So yummy and perfect consistency! I added some frozen blueberries and it didn’t effect the consistency. Thank you, this is my new go to breakfast. My entire family loved it cold or warm.

This is such a life saver! My daughter (1 1/2 years old) eats oatmeal every morning and with a baby on the way, this is a great way to make the mornings a bit easier on me.

I substituted almond milk with whole milk and will probably reduce the amount of peanut butter since it was pretty thick. It’s so good and I’ll definitely be stealing many bites ?

Great recipe and very easy to make! The best thing about this is that once you get all of the ingredients, you can make this for weeks with only having to get almond milk. So it is also a very inexpensive but filling breakfast. Added bananas and blueberries in the morning when I was ready to eat the oats.

I used old fashioned oats and Kept everything else the same and it was delicious!

It was so easy to make and yummy ! I added bananas on top :)

This was so good and it just took me 5mins to make, can have this everyday for breakfast :) Dessert for breakfast !!!!!!!!!!

I just made mine with banana and chocolate peanut butter and vanilla almond milk. Its a 10/10 for me.

I make this recipe all the time! I use raw almond butter and gluten free instant oats. Pre-measured packets of oats makes it even faster to prepare!

Delicious! I recommend going with Old Fashioned Oats over Quick Oats. This recipe is so good, and the peanut butter is the perfect touch.

so simple and SO DELICIOUS.

One of my favorite breakfasts! Even in the winter i find myself craving overnight oats instead of heated oats. I make it almost exactly as written, except I’ll add a touch more of almond milk and spices (cinnamon, nutmeg).

Usually will top with a banana, blueberries or frozen mixed berries(I’ll put those in the jar too & let them defrost over night).

I’ve made this so many times I felt compelled to let you and others know how simple it is to make, how delicious it is, and how filling it is! Thank you so much for this great recipe!!

Very yummy! I love this just as written, though over time I have changed the recipe to include 1 whole tablespoon of chia (just for convenience and speed), 1 tbsp pea protein, and 1 tbsp of flax. We also mix in some cacao and serve with fresh banana slices, and sometimes I omit the maple syrup and mash up a date in the bowl instead. I like a bit more protein since it is 6 to 7 hours between breakfast and lunch for me. I’ve tried making this with steel cut oats as someone else suggested, and those are a bit TOO firm for my preference. I like Bob’s Red Mill extra thick oats. Perfect for overnight oats. They stay chewy without being too firm.

This is my favorite overnight oats recipe!!! It is especially good with blueberries on top. I have found it also works using quick cook steel cut oats. It ends up with a chewier texture, which I prefer.

Hi
I could never imagine that oats could be eaten without cooking. Amazing idea and it tasted great. Thanks for this morning time save.

Second time making this recipe. Only thing I change is almond butter in place of peanut butter. Wholesome and filling for hours. Love it!

My favorite breakfast in the morning! It’s so tasty and keeps me full for 3–4 hours.

I start with peanut butter in the bowl, microwave it for 20 seconds to soften it, and then add the almond milk, sweetener, and chia seeds. (You still get yummy swirls of peanut butter, but it’s easier to stir around.)

In the morning, I add another tablespoon of almond milk, stir it up, and microwave a little over a minute.

I’ve yet to try the recipe with additional toppings—because honestly, these overnight oats are delicious and filling just as is—but I think adding a banana could be a nice touch!
