A few years ago, overnight oats started taking over Pinterest – and I kind of laughed at it, because I thought it’s ridiculous to make such a huge deal out of something so simple. Fast forward a few years, I now have a bunch of little kids at home, and make ahead breakfasts have become my life savers!
There’s nothing better than a simple make ahead breakfast on busy school mornings – my Almond Blueberry Overnight Oats are an easy, healthy breakfast you can prep the night before. It will turn into a pot of creamy and delicious oats – my kids love this one!

    Nora’s Tips

    Serving Size:
    This makes 2 large portions or 4 smaller portions. It’s obviously not crucial to pack the oats into individual jars. You can just make a large bowl and everybody helps themselves.
    For a large family, increase the recipe amounts (the recipe card below calculates it for you – just adjust the serving size according to your needs!) and prep the oats in a large container – everyone can serve themselves in the morning and you save time by skipping stirring everything together in individual jars
    Oats:
    We like a mix of quick oats and old fashioned oats for best creaminess and texture – use all quick oats if you don’t have time for an overnight soak
    Chia Seeds:
    You can make this without if you like, just add 2 tablespoons more oats and a little less milk. You can also use flaxseed instead, but they have a stronger taste.
    Allergy friendliness:
    Make these allergy friendly by using your favorite dairy-free yogurt and milk. Always use certified gluten free ingredients if necessary!
    Consistency:
    I like my overnight oats very creamy. If they seem too wet to you in the morning, you can add some extra chia and wait for a few minutes. I wouldn’t recommend adding more chia than states in the recipe if giving this to young children though.
    If the oats seem too dry/sticky, just add a bit of milk or yogurt and they should be fine.

      Is that nutrition info for the whole batch or per 1/2 cup serving?

      Can you use almond milk instead of regular milk to cut calories?

        Nie, the recipe works with frozen. Just make sure you’re generally comfortable using frozen berries without cooking them first. I do it all the time (in smoothies, too), but frozen fruit/vegetables always bear a small risk of being contaminated, just something to keep in mind.
