What Goes Into This Recipe

ingredients for this easy overnight oats recipe

These are the ingredients for the base of the overnight oats:

  • Oats. This recipe works with both quick and rolled oats.
  • Milk. You can use regular or dairy-free milk.
  • Yogurt. I like to use plain Greek yogurt, but you can also use dairy-free yogurt.
  • Chia seeds. These help achieve creamy texture because they absorb liquid, plus they add healthy fats and fiber.
  • Maple syrup. You can use your favorite sweetener.
  • Vanilla extract. I recommend using pure vanilla, but you could use a different extract depending on the flavor you’re making.

And these are the ingredients for the toppings:

Banana Bread Overnight Oats

To make overnight oats that taste like freshly baked banana bread, you’ll need:

  • Banana. Make sure you’re using a ripe banana for the sweetest flavor.
  • Nuts. You can use walnuts, pecans or hazelnuts.
  • Orange zest. This helps add a touch of brightness to the creamy banana bread oats.
  • Cinnamon. For that classic warming flavor.

Strawberry and Cream Overnight Oats

  • Strawberries. Slice them nice and small so they can easily mix into the oats.
  • Protein powder. You can use collagen powder if you like.
  • Sour cream. This adds tanginess.
  • Lemon zest. For a bit of acidity.

Chocolate Brownie Overnight Oats

  • Cocoa powder. Use unsweetened.
  • Chocolate chips. The mini chips are easier to mix into overnight oats.
  • Brownie. Go right ahead and crumble in your favorite brownie for rich, decadent flavor at breakfast.

Lemon-Blueberry Cheesecake Overnight Oats

  • Cream cheese. Make sure it’s at room temperature for easy blending.
  • Lemon zest. This adds that signature cheesecake flavor.
  • Blueberries. Fresh will work best.

Thai Mango Overnight Oatmeal

  • Mango preserves. I like using sugar-free mango preserve.
  • Fresh mango. This adds wonderful texture and flavor.
  • Coconut butter. For a rich, creamy texture and Thai flavor.

FAQs

What is the best oats for making overnight oats?

I like using quick oats. Even though it’s a bit more processed, it makes a creamier texture. However, if you prefer old-fashioned or rolled oats, those work great too.

Can you make overnight oats without chia seeds?

Certainly. Simply replace the chia seeds with ground flax seeds or flax seed meal.

Can you make these cold oats recipe without yogurt?

I like adding yogurt to the oatmeal base for a creamier texture. But if you’d rather skip it, you can do so with no changes to the recipe.

Can you make creamy oats without milk?

Yes. You can replace the milk with water or your favorite tea. I love to make the brownie oatmeal with cooled black tea for a kick in the morning. Cold coffee would also work.
The lemon blueberry cheesecake works well with green tea.
To do so, make your favorite tea, then strain it if needed. Allow it to cool, and add the same quantity as the milk to your oats and stir well.

Can you make the blueberry cheesecake overnight oats with frozen blueberries?

Frozen blueberries work too. However, after thawing, the texture will be mushy. Nevertheless, still tasty!

Is this overnight oats recipe good for weight loss diets?

If you’re not following a strict weight loss diet, these are perfect for incorporating into your healthy eating plan. The ingredients are pretty clean and help encourage healthy digestion, and improved mood.
To make these oats even better and healthier for the gut, I would also mix in your favorite probiotic drops, just before serving.

Can you make this cold oats recipe ahead for meal prep?

Here’s the plan for meal-prepping overnight oats: make a large batch of these 5-way Overnight Oats on a Sunday, and you’ll have a different breakfast ready for each day of the week ahead!

Expert Tips

Keep these tips in mind when making any of this easy overnight oats recipe:

  • Start preparing the oatmeal base in the afternoon. This way, each jar will have at least 2-4 hours of soaking in the fridge. Then, you can divide the oats between individual jars and finish off each one with toppings. I recommend using 12 fl oz/350 ml jars, so you have plenty of space for toppings.
2 jars, one with Thai mango overnight oatmeal and another with Chocolate Brownie overnight oats
