So this oatmeal is a no bake no cook method. I use a basic formula, which acts as a base. You can add any of your favourite toppings and its ready. I mostly prepare it at night in 2-3 mason jars and they are good for 2-3 days. It is very tasty, versatile and a wholesome yet nutritious meal.

Here I have made these overnight oats with my favorite 4 types of toppings. Of course variety and options to play with a very many.

Basic Formula

1/2 cup Rolled Oats + 1/2 cup Milk +3/4 tbsp Chia Seeds +1/4 cup Greek Yogurt +1/4 tsp Vanilla Extract + 1 tbsp Maple Syrup = Perfect Overnight Oats

Variations to make Overnight Oats

• Chia Seeds: Chia Seeds are healthy and they add a little more thickness and creaminess to the overnight oats. But these are optional. You can avoid adding chia seeds if you want to and it doesn’t really change the taste much. Might be a slight difference in the texture.
• Vanilla Extract: I like adding just a little vanilla extract to give that little flavor. But again this too is optional.
• Maple Syrup: Adding maple syrup is to add some sweetener to the oats. However you can replace it with agave or honey or any other vegan plant based sweetener.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long do the overnight oats last?

They would easily last for about 2-3 days when kept in the refrigerator.

Can I use quick Oats?

Ideally yes. Quick oats will be more softer. But the fiber content in rolled oats is said to higher.

Can you eat Overnight Oats Everyday?

If you would not get bored of having oats everyday. You may have them everyday. Soaked oats are higher in fiber and thus would improve the digestion.
