A simple and nutritious recipe for Cranberry Overnight Oats, perfect for a quick and healthy breakfast. Rolled oats soaked overnight with almond milk, Greek yogurt, cranberries, and a touch of maple syrup create a creamy, flavorful start to your day.

Ingredients

Scale

Overnight Oats

  • 1/2 cup rolled oats
  • 1/2 cup almond milk (or milk of choice)
  • 1/4 cup Greek yogurt
  • 1/4 cup fresh or dried cranberries
  • 1 tbsp maple syrup or honey
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/4 tsp ground cinnamon

Instructions

  1. Combine Ingredients: In a mason jar or bowl, mix the rolled oats, almond milk, Greek yogurt, cranberries, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and ground cinnamon until well blended.
  2. Refrigerate Overnight: Cover the container tightly and place it in the refrigerator to soak overnight. This allows the oats to soften and the flavors to meld.
  3. Stir Before Serving: In the morning, stir the oats thoroughly. If the mixture is too thick, add a little more milk to reach your preferred consistency.
  4. Serve: Enjoy the oats cold straight from the fridge or warm them briefly if desired. Top with additional cranberries for extra flavor and texture.

Notes

  • For a vegan version, substitute Greek yogurt with a plant-based yogurt.
  • You can customize this recipe with other fruits or nuts for additional flavor and crunch.
  • Using rolled oats is essential for the right texture; instant oats may become too mushy.
  • Adjust sweetness by modifying the amount of maple syrup or honey.
  • Store leftovers covered in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
