Blended Overnight Oats
Description
Blended Overnight Oats mix rolled oats, almond milk, yogurt, maple syrup, chia seeds, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt in a blender until smooth. This mixture is then chilled overnight (or at least 2-4 hours) to hydrate the oats and thicken the blend. The final texture is creamy and uniform due to blending, in contrast to traditional overnight oats that retain whole oat texture.
The simplicity of ingredients allows for flavor flexibility, while the use of yogurt adds creaminess and tang. The oats soak and absorb the liquids, resulting in a convenient, ready-to-eat dish upon stirring and topping with preferred additions like berries or nut butter.
Milk quantity can be adjusted within the recommended range to achieve desired thickness. Yogurt can be substituted with extra milk, and protein powder can be incorporated for added protein if desired.
Ingredients
- ½ cup rolled oats old fashioned
- ⅔ - ¾ cup almond milk or your favorite milk, unsweetened
- ¼ cup yogurt or non-dairy yogurt, plain, Greek
- 2 teaspoons maple syrup or your preferred sweetener, or honey
- 1 teaspoon chia seeds optional
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract optional
- pinch of sea salt
- granola blueberries, a drizzle of nut butter, toppings
Instructions
- Add oats, milk, yogurt, maple syrup, chia seeds, vanilla and sea salt into a blender and blend until smooth.
- Pour into a jar and place in the fridge overnight. If you’re in a rush you can shorten the soak time to 2-4 hours.
- The next morning (or when ready to eat) give the mixture a stir, top with favorite toppings and enjoy. I did blueberries, granola and a drizzle of peanut butter.
Notes
- Adjust milk amount between 2/3 to 3/4 cup for thickness preference.
- Substitute yogurt with an extra 1/4 cup of milk if you prefer not to use yogurt.
- For higher protein, add a scoop of protein powder and increase milk accordingly.
- Allow at least 2-4 hours soaking time if short on time, though overnight soaking yields the best texture.
