This Creamy Coconut Overnight Oats only take 5 minutes to prepare for a healthy and delicious breakfast! We simply love oatmeal, and overnight oats are just another way to eat it.
Why We Love These Coconut Overnight Oats:
- Easy breakfast, 5-minute preparation: you just have to mix all the ingredients in a bowl or in a jar and put the mix overnight in your fridge. That’s all!
- Creaminess in a bowl: this version is really creamy! We’re adding some yogurt and plant-based milk to give it a good texture.
- Versatile: you can adapt it with what you have at hand. Add your favourite nuts, fruits, and milk of choice.
How to Make Overnight Oats
- Mix all ingredients in a bowl or a jar. This recipe calls for 2 portions, so you can easily throw them into 2 separate mason jars.
- Make sure they’re well combined. That’s the key to this recipe. We want to make sure the chia seeds are well incorporated.
- Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or put the lid on the Mason jar. Place in the fridge overnight to set.
- Enjoy the next morning and add your favourite toppings!
Which Oats to Choose for Overnight Oats
We like using rolled oats (old-fashioned oats) to obtain a great texture. You can also choose quick oats, but you won’t get the same texture. That’s why we recommend using rolled oats.
What’s in Our Recipe? How to Adapt it?
- Oats: Please choose rolled oats to make the base of our overnight oats.
- Milk: you can pick any milk you want, either plant-based milk or cow milk. For this recipe, we recommend using plant-based coconut beverage.
- Coconut greek yogurt: more proteins to your breakfast that will make the oats creamy. We love using coconut greek yogurt for this recipe.
- Coconut chips: we want to add some crunchy coconut chips to our coconut overnight oats! But feel free to use shredded coconut instead.
- Maple syrup: the sweetener to our breakfast. You can also use honey.
- Chia seeds: a classic ingredient in this recipe that helps thickening the oats.
- Vanilla: we use vanilla extract.
- Salt: a pinch of salt to balance all the flavours.
Store in the Fridge
Overnight oats will last in the fridge for up to 5 days. Please make sure to put them in an airtight container or Mason jar.
