It is no secret that I love breakfast food and that I love oatmeal!  I have been wanting to try overnight oats for a while, but most call for Greek yogurt and that won’t work for me.  So…after looking at a few different dairy free/vegan recipes I came up with one that has been working great for me!  It is 5 simple ingredients and it is super versatile!

Super Easy Overnight Oats

• 1/2 cup of oats (not Steel Cut)
• 1 Tbsp of Chia, Flax, or Hemp Seeds (I used a combination of Chia, Hemp and Buckwheat)
• 1 Tbsp of powdered peanut butter (omit if you want!)
• dash of cinnamon
• 1/2 cup of milk (almond, flax, coconut, cow- what ever you prefer)

Extra optional add ins:

• berries
• sliced banana
• dried fruit
• nuts
• seeds
• unsweetened coconut flakes

Put all your ingredients into a jar, put on the lid and give it a good shake.  That’s it!  Put it in the fridge and your breakfast is ready for tomorrow or make a few and you are set for the week.

bonus tip

You can actually add your ingredients into snack size baggies (minus the liquid).  In the morning add 1/2 a cup of hot water and your baggie of goodness to a bowl for a quick, healthy instant oatmeal!

Here’s a quick demo:

I hope you enjoy this quick and yummy overnight oats recipe.  I would love to hear if you add anything that I didn’t mention to your version of overnight oats!
