If you’re looking for a hearty breakfast that’s simple to make and endlessly customizable, overnight oats are hard to beat. You can prep a few jars in the evening and have breakfast ready for the next couple of mornings — enjoy it delightfully chilled straight from the fridge or warm it up if you’re craving something cozy and comforting. Definitely check out my favorite overnight oats recipes… and let me know if you love them as much as we do in my house!
Banana Bread Overnight Oats
This tastes just like a slice of banana bread but in breakfast form. You’ll mash a ripe banana right into the oats along with vanilla, cinnamon, some milk and yogurt (which can be swapped for cottage cheese or ricotta cheese). Top with toasted pecans for a little crunch and you’ve got a breakfast that feels like a treat.
Key Lime Overnight Oats
Bright, tangy, and super refreshing for breakfast, these oats bring tropical vibes to your morning routine. The combination of lime juice and zest with creamy Greek yogurt gives you that classic key lime flavor. Add some crunchy granola on top right before eating for extra pizzazz and deliciousness.
Blueberry Muffin Overnight Oats
If blueberry muffins are your weakness, you’ll looove these overnight oats. Half a banana gets mashed with fresh blueberries to create a sweet base, then more blueberries get folded in so you have bursts of fruit in every bite. The blueberries soften overnight and create this pretty purple swirl that gives real bakery muffin vibes.
Strawberry Peach Overnight Oats
Delightfully fruity and perfect for sunny mornings. Fresh strawberries get blended with strawberry yogurt and milk to create a sweet, creamy base, then chopped ripe peach gets stirred in for extra flavor and texture. It’s a unique spin on oatmeal that tastes like sunshine in a jar.
Pumpkin Pie Overnight Oats
Enjoy the flavors of fall any time of year. Pumpkin puree blends beautifully with warm spices, rolled oats and Greek yogurt for the ultimate yummy base. Top it off with a sprinkling of toasted pecans or walnuts and you’ve got yourself a serious breakfast feast.
Apple Pie Overnight Oats
Tender cinnamon apples mingle with warm spices to make these oats taste like the filling of a homemade apple pie. The base combines applesauce with cinnamon and nutmeg, while a quick-cooked apple topping gives you those classic apple pie vibes. Eat these cold or warmed up for a breakfast that feels like pure comfort.
