About This Recipe

Overnight oats are the ultimate make-ahead breakfast. Simply stir oats together with milk and yogurt before bed, and by morning they have softened into a creamy, pudding-like porridge — no cooking required.

Oats are a good source of soluble fiber, and topped with colorful berries, nuts and a drizzle of honey, this is a breakfast that feels like a treat while keeping you satisfied until lunch.

Tips for Success

  • Use old-fashioned rolled oats; instant oats become mushy and steel-cut oats stay too firm.
  • Make several jars at once — they keep in the refrigerator for up to 4 days (add the berries and nuts just before eating).
  • Frozen berries work well; they thaw overnight and release lovely juices.

Questions & Answers

Can I eat overnight oats warm?

Yes. Microwave for 60 to 90 seconds, stirring halfway, or warm gently in a small saucepan.

Can I make them without yogurt?

Yes. Replace the yogurt with an extra ½ cup of milk; the oats will be slightly less creamy.
