Ingredients

Quick Blueberry Sauce

  • 1 cup blueberries rinsed
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • ½ tablespoon maple syrup optional

Overnight Oats

  • ½ cup Greek or Skyr yogurt dairy or plant-based
  • 1 ¼ cups non-dairy milk of choice
  • 1 tablespoon maple syrup optional
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup rolled oats or quick oats I used quick
  • 1 tablespoon chia seeds
  • ⅛ teaspoon ground cinnamon optional

For Serving

  • blueberries
  • hemp hearts
  • favorite nut butter
  • granola

Instructions

  • Make blueberry sauce:  In small saucepan over medium heat add blueberries, lemon juice, and maple syrup. Cook down until juices release, about 8 minutes, then begin mashing with the back of a wooden spoon and continue simmering for another 2-3 minutes, until slightly thickened. Remove from heat to cool.
  • Make overnight oats: Add wet ingredients to a medium bowl – yogurt, milk, maple syrup, vanilla extract; stir well until combined.
  • Add dry ingredients: Stir in oats, chia seeds and pinch of ground cinnamon. Then mix in cooled blueberry sauce.
  • Refrigerate: Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or overnight. You can portion into individual servings or store in larger bowl.
  • Enjoy: In the morning, taste test for consistency – you can stir in a couple splashes of milk if you’d like it thinner. Enjoy hot or cold with your favorite toppings.

Notes

STORAGE – Overnight oats will keep for up to 5 days in the fridge. The oats will soften and thicken as they sit, so you may have to add a splash or two of milk on days 4-5.
