Blueberry Overnight Oats
by: claire cary
These blueberry overnight oats are an easy and delicious breakfast for busy mornings! They take only 5 minutes to prepare and make the perfect grab and go breakfast. Top them off with fresh blueberries and chia jam and you're in for a treat!
Ingredients
- 1 cup milk dairy or non-dairy
- 1 cup fresh blueberries divided
- 1 tablespoon maple syrup or more to taste
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup quick oats
- 1 tablespoon chia seeds
- ½ teaspoon cinnamon
- ¼ cup greek yogurt optional
- Blueberry jam or Blueberry chia jam optional
Instructions
- Add the milk, maple syrup, vanilla and 2/3 cup of blueberries to a blender. If using yogurt, you can also add that now too. Blend until smooth.
- Add the oats, chia seeds and cinnamon to a mixing bowl. Pour in the blueberry milk and stir everything to combine. Let sit for about 5 minutes, then stir again to ensure the chia seeds and oats don't just sink to the bottom.
- Cover and let sit overnight to thicken or for at least 2 hours.
- Remove from the fridge and stir.
- Once thickened, serve with blueberry jam and greek yogurt if desired and the remaining 1/3 cup of blueberries.
Notes
Any milk will work with these overnight oats, my personal favorite is almond milk or coconut milk, but you can use regular cow's milk as well.
As written, these oats will be on the thicker side after sitting for a few hours. If you want them a bit thinner, you can add a few extra tablespoons of milk.
