Healthy Overnight Oats for Breakfast



Recently I started liking these overnight oats for breakfast. I love to experiment by adding different toppings like chopped berries, crushed nuts, nut butter, coconut flakes, a variety of fruits and so on. These will make you full till lunch and is easy to customize the flavors.


I feel these easy make-ahead breakfasts are essential for busy mornings. Overnight oats are rolled oats/ old fashioned oats, which are soaked in a liquid overnight. By the next morning, the liquid is well absorbed by the oats and can be had along with a choice of toppings. Sometimes I will just have along with chopped bananas. A perfect no-cook breakfast which is loaded with nutrients, fiber, vitamins, proteins, and will be liked by kids.


You can add any sweetener like the honey, brown sugar, dates syrup, chocolate chips for the kids. A healthy option to take to school/ office. By mixing all the ingredients the night before, a creamy, hearty, healthy, satisfying and absolutely delicious dish will be ready the next day morning.
I like the soaked raw oats rather than the gummy texture of the cooked oats. If you give these a try, please let me know.
Ingredients:

  1. Oats- 1 Cups
  2. Almond Milk- 1/2 Cup
  3. Greek Yogurt/ Plain Yogurt- 2 tbsp
  4. Cinnamon Powder- 1/4 Tsp
  5. Honey- 1/2 tbsp
  6. Chia Seeds- 1 tsp
  7. Peanut Butter- 1 tbsp

Method:

  1. In a bowl/ glass jar, add the oats, along with almond milk, yogurt, Chia seeds, cinnamon powder, honey, and peanut butter. Mix well till everything gets incorporated well. Refrigerate overnight.
  2. In the morning, add your choice of chopped nuts, berries, and granola. Enjoy a healthy and delicious breakfast.
