Overnight Oats are a simple and healthy breakfast that's made ahead of time, and the flavor combinations are endless!
Ingredients
1cupold fashioned rolled oats
2cupsunsweetened cashew milk(or milk of choice)
2tbspalmond butter*(optional)
1tbsphoney**(optional)
1/2tspvanilla extract
1/4tspground cinnamon
1/8tspsalt
Instructions
In a medium bowl, stir to combine all of the ingredients. You may also place everything into a large jar or storage container, and shake to combine instead.
Cover and refrigerate for 8 hours***, then serve.
My go-to additions for overnight oats are assorted berries and toasted coconut. See the blog post for more ingredient ideas.
Notes
On the nutrition information: Unfortunately this database only has sweetened almond milk in it, so the sugar is listed a bit higher than if you used unsweetened nut milk. Also, the nutrition information includes all of the ingredients listed (including the optional ones).On serving size: I typically add a substantial amount of fruit and coconut, so this amounts to about 3 servings for me. If not adding anything, you may need more for a serving.*The almond butter I use is creamy and flows well, even when refrigerated. If this isn't the case for you, microwave it briefly to loosen.**If using a honey that's solid at room temperature, microwave it briefly to melt into a liquid.***If you're okay with a chewier texture, you can soak for a minimum of 4 hours. You can also soak for longer than 8 hours, but they'll have a softer texture. Leftovers will keep for a couple days in the fridge.
