Description

Brown Sugar Overnight Oats are a delicious and easy make-ahead breakfast option. Creamy, sweet, and hearty, this recipe combines the rich flavor of brown sugar with the wholesome goodness of oats. It’s the perfect grab-and-go breakfast to keep you energized throughout the morning.

Ingredients

1/2 cup rolled oats

1/2 cup milk (dairy or non-dairy)

1/2 cup Greek yogurt

1 tablespoon brown sugar

1/4 teaspoon cinnamon

1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

Pinch of salt

Instructions

  1. In a bowl or jar, combine the rolled oats, milk, Greek yogurt, brown sugar, cinnamon, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt.
  2. Stir well to combine all the ingredients.
  3. Cover and refrigerate overnight (or for at least 4 hours).
  4. In the morning, give the oats a stir and enjoy cold, or heat them up in the microwave if you prefer a warm breakfast.
  5. Optionally, top with additional brown sugar, fruit, or nuts for added texture and flavor.

Notes

  1. For a nutty twist, add chopped nuts like almonds, walnuts, or pecans.
  2. Mix in fresh or dried fruits like bananas, berries, or raisins for a natural sweetness.
  3. Experiment with other spices like nutmeg or cardamom for extra flavor.
  4. Use maple syrup or honey instead of brown sugar for a different sweetener.
  5. To make the recipe vegan-friendly, opt for dairy-free yogurt and non-dairy milk like almond or oat milk.
  6. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
  7. Microwave for 30 seconds to 1 minute, adding a splash of milk if needed, to reheat the oats.
  8. For creamier oats, increase the yogurt amount or add nut butter like peanut or almond butter.
  9. If you prefer to freeze, store in an airtight container for up to 1 month. Thaw in the fridge overnight before eating.
