Ingredients
- Old Fashioned Oats - I find that Old Fashioned Oats have a better texture in this recipe. You can use steel-cut or instant, but the texture will be different.
- Yogurt - ANY kind of yogurt can be used when making Overnight Oats. Just keep in mind the sweetness and flavor of the yogurt will affect the entire dish.
- Almond Milk - Or any milk, even water will work.
- Vanilla Extract - Adds flavor, making the overnight oats taste more like blueberry muffins. If using vanilla yogurt, omit the vanilla extract.
- Chia Seeds - Offer nutrients like fiber and Omega-3s. They also help to thicken the Overnight Oats.
- Honey - For sweetness, unless you are using a sweet yogurt. You may need to adjust the sweetness.
- Blueberries - Fresh or frozen blueberries.

FAQ ABOUT OVERNIGHT OATS
Overnight oats need to soak for 4-6 before they are soft enough to eat.
Old fashioned rolled oats yield the best texture. Instant oats will become mushy and steel cut oats need a longer soak time to become soft.
Overnight oats can last in the refrigerator for 4-5 days if stored in an airtight container. You may want to wait to add any fruit or nuts to the overnight oats until you are ready to serve them.
