Preps
The vegan overnight oatmeal is the time-crunched person’s breakfast secret weapon, since it takes just a couple of minutes to make it at night and before bed.
When you mix together rolled oats, chia seeds, and almond milk, the chia seeds absorb the milk and the oats soften, creating an effortless chilled porridge.
Place it in the fridge at night and forget about it until morning, when you’ll wake up to a cool, creamy bowl of oats that’s just perfect in the spring or summer.
This is my go-to overnight oats recipe, but feel free to change up the fruit and other mix-ins as you like.
Vegan Overnight Oatmeal
Vegan, gluten-free, no bake/raw, oil-free, refined sugar-free, soy-free
Yield : 1 bowl
Soak time overnight or 2 hours
Prep Time: 5 min
Ingredients:
1 large ripe/spotty banana, mashed
2 tablespoons chia seeds
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 cup gluten-free rolled oats
3/4 cup almond milk
1/4 teaspoon pure vanilla extract (optional)
Suggested Toppings:
Granola
Fresh fruit
Coconut flakes
Pure maple syrup
Cinnamon
Nuts and seeds
Banana soft serve
Directions:
In a small bowl, mash the banana until almost smooth. Now stir in the chia seeds and cinnamon until combined.
Stir in the oats, almond milk, and vanilla (if using). Cover and refrigerate overnight, or a minimum of 2 hours.
In the morning, stir the oat mixture to combine. If your Vegan Overnight Oats have a runny consistency even after they soak, simply stir in an additional 1 tablespoon chia seeds and place the mixture back in the fridge until it has thickened up. If the oat mixture is too thick, simply add a splash of milk and stir to combine.
Tips:
Not a banana fan? Try swapping the mashed banana for 1/4-1/2 cup of your favorite yogurt and liquid sweetener, if desired
