Vanilla Orange Overnight Oats
Description
This Vanilla Orange Overnight Oats recipe combines rolled oats with almond milk, vanilla protein powder, a splash of vanilla extract, chia seeds, and a dash of cinnamon. The mixture is stirred, sealed, and refrigerated overnight to allow the oats to soak and absorb the liquids, resulting in a creamy and thick texture by morning. Adding a little almond milk before serving can adjust thickness to preference. Chopped pecans sprinkled on top add a contrasting crunch, while optional orange zest brightens the overall flavor profile with a subtle citrus aroma and taste.
This preparation requires no cooking and can be a convenient grab-and-go breakfast or snack. The inclusion of protein powder makes the dish more filling, and the combination of dairy-free milk, oats, and fruit flavors supports a balanced, wholesome meal without added sugars. The chia seeds also help thicken and add a nutritional boost.
Ingredients
- 1 cup Trop50
- 1 vanilla protein powder scoop
- 1 cup rolled oats old fashioned
- 1 cup almond milk unsweetened
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla
- 1 Tablespoon chia seeds
- cinnamon dash
- 1 Tablespoon pecans chopped
- 1/2 teaspoon orange zest optional
Instructions
- Prep oats: Place all ingredients in a container except chopped pecans and orange zest. Stir until well combined. Seal with a lid and place in the fridge overnight (or at least a couple hours).
- Serve: Bring out of the fridge in the morning and stir. You'll notice that the oats soak up a lot of the liquid so you may want to add a little more almond milk before serving. Top oats with chopped pecans and orange zest.
