Creamy, pudding-like blended overnight oats are a quick, healthy meal-prep idea for breakfast. Made with rolled oats, Greek yogurt, milk, and nut butter, simply blended together and chilled in the fridge overnight.
Add all your ingredients - 2 cup old-fashioned rolled oats, 2 cup milk, 1 cup plain Greek yogurt, 1/2 cup maple syrup or honey, 1/4 cup nut butter of choice, and 2 teaspoons vanilla extract (other than the toppings) to a blender and blend until smooth.
Divide the mixture among 4 x 10oz cups or jars
Refrigerate overnight.
Add toppings like Fresh berries, banana slices, roasted nuts, chocolate chips and enjoy!
Notes
Tips:
The texture is more like smoothie bowls, so not as thick as classic oats. I personally like it, they're very creamy! If you'd like it thicker, I recommend adding 2 tbsp chia seeds to the mixture.
You can add 1 scoop of flavored protein powder to the blender along with all the other ingredients. It will boost the protein content and add more flavor to the oats.
You can easily replace the milk and yogurt in this recipe with vegan or non-dairy alternatives if you have a dietary restriction.
I use lidded jars for storing my blended oats in the fridge so that they don't absorb any unwanted flavors from other ingredients in the fridge
Storage:
You can store the blended oats, covered, in the fridge for 3 to 5 days.
