Description

Unlike most overnight oats recipes, this recipe is almost pudding-like in consistency thanks to the quick oats and chia seeds which help keep it light and fluffy. Plus, the addition of vanilla bean paste takes the oats to the next level!


Ingredients

Scale
  • ⅓ cup Rolled oats
  • ⅓ cup Quick oats
  • 1 tbsp Chia seeds
  • 1 tbsp Hemp seeds
  • ¼ tsp Ceylon cinnamon
  • ⅛ tsp Kosher salt
  • 1 ⅓ cup Cashew milk
  • 1 tbsp Honey
  • ½ tsp Vanilla extract
  • ¼ tsp Vanilla bean paste
  • Toppings like strawberries, raspberries, hazelnut butter and coconut flakes

Instructions

  1. Combine the rolled oats, quick oats, chia seeds, hemp seeds, salt and cinnamon together and whisk well. Pour in the milk, honey, vanilla extract and vanilla bean paste. Whisk to combine. 
  2. Let the oats sit for 10 minutes and then whisk again. This will help ensure the chia seeds don’t clump together. 
  3. Pop the oats in the fridge and let sit overnight, or for at least 6 hours or overnight.
  4. Serve with sliced strawberries, raspberries, coconut flakes and a generous dollop of hazelnut butter. 

Notes

I also recommend pouring a splash of cold cashew milk on the oats as another topping. The cold milk tastes so good the oats. 

These oats do make a larger portion, so feel free to share with another, or save half for tomorrow’s breakfast. Or just eat it all (like I do haha).
