These overnight oats without chia seeds give you an easy, high-fiber breakfast without any specialty ingredients. This recipe can also be made vegan and gluten-free.

Ingredients

Overnight oats:

  • 1 cup (92 grams) rolled oats use gluten-free oats if you're GF
  • 3/4 cup (180 ml) milk of choice see notes
  • 1-2 tablespoons maple syrup
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • pinch of salt

Before serving:

  • 2 tablespoons nut butter or yogurt optional, see notes
  • fruit, jam, chocolate chips optional

Instructions

  • In a medium bowl, stir together the overnight oats ingredients (using 1 tablespoon of maple syrup). Taste and add the remaining tablespoon of maple syrup, if desired.
    1 cup (92 grams) rolled oats, 3/4 cup (180 ml) milk of choice, 1-2 tablespoons maple syrup, 2 teaspoons vanilla extract, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, pinch of salt
  • Cover and refrigerate for at least 6 hours and up to 4 days.
  • Remove from the fridge, stir, and divide between two bowls. Stir in 1 tablespoon nut butter or yogurt per bowl, if desired, and add toppings, if using. I do.
  • Refrigerate leftovers for up to 4 days.

Notes

  • I use unsweetened cashew milk for a vegan/dairy-free version.
  • I use coconut milk yogurt for a vegan version. Make sure any other topping/add-in is vegan or gluten-free if needed.
  • There is no nutrition information calculated here, as WPRM has yet to fix an error with the caloric value of rolled oats.
