These creamy overnight oats are one breakfast that’s definitely worth waking up for!
Your instant breakfast awaits!
In this overnight oats recipe, you basically just throw a bunch of ingredients into a jar the night before, and breakfast magically appears on the table in the morning.
If you normally find yourself with no time in the morning or no motivation to make an elaborate breakfast, the “overnight oats” method could be perfect for you.
Over five years ago, I first published something called the Voluminous Oatmeal Trick, and it spread through the internet like lightning.
Overnight oats are similar to voluminous oats in that you make them up the night before. But this time it’s even easier:
There is no cooking required whatsoever!

Where did you get that spoon?
That’s a beautiful spoon! Where did you get it?
Wow. The pictures look amazing. I had to visit your blog as the pictures were so beautiful, I guess the taste will be more deliecious. 🙂
I’ve been making a variety of this every evening for the next day. I’ll have to try the cocoa nibs. I’m obsessed with the chia seed texture! I’ve been using 1/3 cup of oats which yields plenty once it plumps up for my breakie.

I love overnight oats! One of my favourite breakfasts, especially in summer. 🙂
Mmm I love this!! I will be giving this a try for sure. I just bought a bunch of carob chips and I think they’ll go really well in this. (I’m trying to keep carob around the house more instead of chocolate, because even though it’s really tasty and I like it a lot, I have an easier time with eating small portions of it than I do with chocolate.) I’ll let you know how it comes out with those.
