Mixed Berry Overnight Oats (30g of Protein!)
Description
This recipe mixes Greek yogurt, almond milk, oats, protein powder, vanilla extract, chia seeds, stevia, and mixed berries in a container chilled for at least two hours or overnight. The soaking process softens the oats and blends flavors, resulting in a creamy and nutrient-rich breakfast.
The combination provides protein from yogurt and powder, fiber from oats and chia seeds, and natural sweetness from berries and sweetener. The texture is smooth with small bits from oats and berries, suitable for a grab-and-go meal or a make-ahead option. Adding blueberry puree enhances the fruitiness and visual appeal.
The oats can be enjoyed cold or warmed in short increments with stirring, with adjustments to consistency by adding more milk. Variations can accommodate dietary needs by substituting dairy-free yogurt and milk or using plant-based protein. This recipe delivers a convenient, customizable way to incorporate protein and fruit into a morning routine.
Ingredients
- 3/4 cup Greek yogurt 2%, 170g
- 1/4 cup almond milk or milk of choice, unsweetened, 60g
- 1/3 cup old-fashioned oats
- 2 Tbsp protein powder (15g)
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 tsp chia seeds
- 1/2 tsp stevia honey, or other sweetener to taste, liquid form
- 1/2 cup mixed berries frozen, 70g
Optional:
- blueberry puree as pictured, see notes below
Instructions
- Add all the ingredients to a bowl.
- Mix well to combine. Then transfer the oat mixture to a mason jar or container for storage.
- Cover with a lid or saran wrap and place in the fridge for a minimum of 2 hours. For best, creamiest results, let sit for at least 8 hours.
- Stir again when ready to eat, then top with toppings of choice (like blueberry puree, fresh fruit, nut butter, etc.) and enjoy!
Notes
- For blueberry puree, blend berries with water and sweeten as needed to add a fresh topping.
- Reheat oats in brief intervals with stirring, adding liquid to adjust texture if desired.
- The recipe is naturally gluten-free if certified gluten-free oats are used.
- Use dairy-free Greek yogurt and plant-based milk for a dairy-free version.
- Replace protein powder with plant-based options to make the oats vegan.
