Overnight Oats Recipe

Overnight Oats is a simple no cook breakfast made by soaking oats in milk along with fruits and nuts. It is usually prepared the previous night and kept in fridge. Next day morning it is ready to eat without any extra work. This is very helpful on busy mornings as it hardly takes few minutes to put together.

Ingredients

  • ¼ cup rolled oats
  • 1 teaspoon honey
  • ½ teaspoon chia seeds/ basil seeds
  • ½ cup + 2 tablespoon extra milk
  • 2 tablespoon fruits of your choice I used finely chopped apples
  • 1 tablespoon nuts and dry fruits of your choice
  • ¼ teaspoon vanilla essence

Instructions

  • First take your serving jar. Add oats to it.
  • Add sabja / chia seeds to it.
  • Add milk, then honey.
  • Mix well with a spoon. Then add chopped apples.
  • Add dry fruits and nuts. Add vanilla essence stir once.
  • Close with lid and refrigerate overnight.
  • Your overnight oats will be ready to serve for next day breakfast.

Notes

  • Oats choice – I make sure to use rolled oats or quick oats only. Instant oats will become too mushy. Try not to skip this part as texture matters.
  • Sweetness check – I always taste before refrigerating. I adjust honey based on fruit sweetness. You can add more later also if needed.
  • Fruit – I just chop fruits finely so it mixes well. Hard fruits should be cut small. Soft fruits can be added while serving too.
  • Consistency – If oats feels dry in morning, add little milk and mix. I usually do this just before eating.
  • Layering – I just layer fruits and nuts on top instead of mixing. It looks nice and gives better bite while eating.
