Overnight Oatmeal: 3 Ways
One of my new found loves is overnight oatmeal. Not only is it quick and simple way to have an easy breakfast, but I love tweaking with different flavors and spices!
On Sundays, I usually whip up about three or four ready-to-eat jars for the work week and find that they make breakfast so much faster and easier in the mornings. Plus, they are delicious, healthy, and filling :)
Here are my three go-to overnight oatmeal flavors:
I love mixing all the different combinations!
Here are my three basic recipes:
Pumpkin Spice Overnight Oatmeal:
1/2 cup whole oats
1/2 cup of milk (I like almond milk)
1/2 cup pumpkin puree
1 tsp cinnamon
1/2 tsp pumpkin pie spice
1 pinch of cloves
Mix all ingredients together, store in a jar or container, let sit for up to a week in the refrigerator. Eat warm or cold.
Carrot Cake Overnight Oatmeal:
1/2 cup whole oats
1/2 cup of milk (I like almond milk)
1/3 cup finely shredded carrots
1/2 tsp molasses
1/2 tsp cinnamon
Pinch of ginger and cloves
Mix all ingredients together, store in a jar or container, let sit for up to a week in the refrigerator. Eat warm or cold.
Peanut Butter and Chocolate Chip Overnight Oatmeal:
1/2 cup whole oats
1/2 cup of milk (I like almond milk)
1 tbsp peanut butter
1 tbsp chocolate chips
Mix all ingredients together, store in a jar or container, let sit for up to a week in the refrigerator. Eat warm or cold.
What about you? Have you ever tried overnight oats? If so, what are your favorites?

I made some last night....I just put cinnamon and nutmeg in it. {I also use unsweetened vanilla almond milk} Just finished eating a 1/2 cup of the oatmeal mixture...it was DELISH!!!! Thank you for the great recipe & idea!!!!!
ReplyDeleteI don't understand - what us over night about it? I love oatmeal so I'm interested - not being snarky. :-)
ReplyDeleteThank you! Thank You! I am so excited to try the pumkin pie one! One question; what is the process you use to warm the oatmeal in the mornings??? All the recipies I have seen so far for overnight oats just indicate that it is a cold breakfast...Please enlighten us :)
ReplyDeleteThanks again!
To warm them up, just place the jar (or put the contents into a bowl) in the microwave and zap them for a minute or two. You may want to add a little milk after warming it up--it's up to you!
DeleteThanks for the tip and the quick response too!
DeleteMy kiddos love any kind of oatmeal!! Thanks so much for linking up!! Have you seen my Lisa Leonard giveaway yet?
