An easy overnight cold oats, using pantry ingredients and fresh blueberries! This one is very versatile, change up the blueberries for another fruit, add some other ingredients, eat it cold or hot, etc.
| Servings |
|
- 1 cup whole rolled oats
- muesli additional, optional
- 1 tablespoon chia seeds optional, I usually leave out
- 1 tablespoon ground flax
- 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1-1 1/4 cups almond milk to taste, depends on how thick or thin you want your oats
- 1/4 cup plain, non-fat Greek yogurt
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 1/2 cup fresh blueberries plus more for topping, if desired
- sliced almonds for garnish

- Original Recipe: Combine all ingredients, with the exception of the almonds, in a bowl and mix together. Cover and refrigerate overnight.
- In the morning, remove oats from the refrigerator, divide between two bowls and top with more blueberries and sliced almonds.
Stacy's Notes: I almost always double this recipe, and that gives me about 3-5 servings for my breakfasts for the week. I often add dry muesli from the bulk bin (when I can find it!). If I don't have chia seeds (and I often do not), I just leave it out and add more flax.
Be sure to mix everything well as you add it, it takes a bit of stirring to get it all combined! I almost always mix the dry ingredients, then fold in the yogurt and finish with the almond milk. Seems to work better for me this way to combine everything 🙂
You can use fresh blueberries or other fruit, or substitute frozen or dried fruit. It's an easy recipe you can modify to your tastes! I make this mostly in the summer and eat it cold, but you can heat it up in the microwave if you like your oatmeal warm.
Enjoy!
