How To Make Overnight Oats

Disclosure: This post may contain referral/affiliate links.

I love overnight oats!  The cold, creamy taste of a nutritious bowl of overnight oats makes my heart sing. I like the fact that it’s so simple to make too.

The oats absorb the liquid you add and can be eaten warm or cold. I prefer cold. And each glorious bowl fills me up and takes me all the way to lunchtime.

I make my overnight oats in a plastic Rubbermaid container or a glass container but you can also make them in mason jars. Or if you’re at the end of a jar of nut butter, throw all the ingredients in there.  I personally like to do that with warm oatmeal so the nut butter melts.

Ahhhh delicious.

And you can choose to cover them or not. I like to cover them so I can shake them up and it helps to minimize the potential for a mess.

A Simple Grab and Go Meal

Overnight oats can be made in so many different ways. All you need are a variety of ingredients. No, you won’t use everything below but you can pick and choose to mix it up.

  • Oatmeal (I have used old fashioned rolled oats AND quick oats)
  • Almond/Cashew/Soy/Regular Milk
  • Bananas
  • Berries (strawberries, blueberries, blackberries, raspberries)
  • Cinnamon
  • Cocoa
  • Vanilla
  • Protein powder
  • Any nut butter
  • Greek Yogurt
  • Chia seeds
  • Cacao nibs
    Overnight Oats

I personally make mine with oats, almond milk, chia seeds, protein powder, vanilla and cinnamon. I vary the fruits but like to put blueberries in overnight. Then in the morning,  I top my overnight oats with 1/2 banana and a tablespoon of peanut butter.  Of course I mix it up and vary the fruits too.
