Cinnamon Roll Overnight Oatmeal offers a warm, comforting twist on a classic favorite with the cozy flavors of cinnamon, molasses, and caramel. This healthy, easy-to-make breakfast is packed with fiber, protein, and healthy fats, making it both indulgent and nourishing.
Ingredients
1 cup old-fashioned oats
2 tbsp brown sugar
1 tsp cinnamon
1 tsp chia seeds
1 tbsp ground flaxseed
Pinch of salt
1 tsp vanilla extract
2 tbsp coconut yogurt (or another plant-based yogurt, such as almond)
1 cup non-dairy milk of choice (soy for extra protein recommended)
For the Healthy Protein Icing (optional):
1 tbsp coconut yogurt (or another plant-based yogurt, such as almond)
½ tsp maple syrup
½ tsp lemon juice
1 tsp oat milk (or another plant-based milk)
Instructions
- In a medium-sized bowl, combine the oats, brown sugar, cinnamon, chia seeds, flaxseed, and salt.
- Add the plant-based milk, yogurt, and vanilla extract to the dry mixture. Stir everything together until fully combined.
- Divide the mixture into two mason jars or small glass containers, cover, and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight.
- When ready to serve, stir the oats well and add more milk if you want to adjust the thickness.
- For the icing, mix yogurt, maple syrup, lemon juice, and oat milk in a small bowl. Drizzle the icing over the oats for a delightful cinnamon roll-inspired finish.
Notes
- Sweetness: Adjust the sweetness by adding more maple syrup or brown sugar depending on your preference.
- Milk Options: Feel free to use almond milk, oat milk, or coconut milk depending on your preference.
- Skip the Icing: If you prefer a simpler version, the oats alone are still flavorful and satisfying.
- Top with Extras: Add chopped nuts (like walnuts or pecans) or a sprinkle of cinnamon sugar on top for extra texture and flavor.
