How to Make Overnight Oats

If you've ever said, "I don't have time for breakfast" you no longer have that excuse ;)

Overnight oats are so simple to throw together and are made the night before so you can literally grab them and go the next morning!

Follow these steps to make your own favorite overnight oats: 

1. Grab a mason jar or other glass container with a lid.

2. Add 1/3 cup of gluten-free rolled oats to your jar. Tip: If you're planning on making enough jars for a few days, I Bob’s Red Mill Extra Thick Rolled Oats to keep my oats from getting soggy.

3. Now the fun part - choosing your mix-ins!! Mix and match 2-4 ingredients from the list below. Start with 1T of each - you can always change it up next time if you feel you need more or less.

   • Chia seeds

   • Cacao nibs

   • Hemp seeds

   • Flax seeds

   • Walnut pieces

   • Coconut flakes

   • Almond butter

   • Peanut butter

   • Protein powder

4. Pour in 1/2 cup to 1 cup of almond milk or your favorite non-dairy milk. If you like your oats super thick, stick to 1/2 cup. If you like them a little more soupy, go for a full cup (I use a full cup in mine).

5. Add your lid and shake to combine all ingredients. Refrigerate overnight and for up to 3 days (use extra thick rolled oats if you're planning on making a few days' worth to keep the oats from getting mushy).

6. Enjoy the next morning! If you'd like, you can add cinnamon or fruit to your oats before eating. Try apples, banana, or blueberries! If you want them a little sweeter, you can also add a bit of stevia or honey.
