recommended tools for the best vegan overnight oats!
Coconut Cream: my #1 secret ingredient in making the best vegan overnight oats. Yes, you can try using just non-dairy milk, or you can try using just vegan yogurt… but it’s not the same. Coconut cream adds this incredible texture and taste to overnight oats. Think: creamy, indulgent, satisfying, and still secretly healthy. How amazing is that?
Cute Mini Jars: My favorite jars to make vegan overnight oats in. They’re resealable, free from plastic and hold so much more than they seem to–um, space-saving andadorable? Yep, I’ve got 3 sets of these babies. (Meal prep, you see.)
Chia Seeds: arguably the most crucial ingredient in the best vegan overnight oats. Okay, there’s all the super yum-inducing coconut cream, and of course, gluten free rolled oats! 😉 But without these nutrient-rich, super healthy chia seeds inside, overnight oats wouldn’t have their satisfyingly thick texture.
Where to Buy Ingredients: Coconut Cream | Gluten Free Rolled Oats | Coconut Sugar | Natural Sugar Free Sweeteners: stevia or monkfruit drops | Chia Seeds | Pure Maple Syrup | Pure Vanilla Extract

You’re totally swooning over the cuteness overload from these mini jars, right? I’m not gonna lie, so am I! Plus, I totally love using some of them to store little knickknacks on my desk. Anywho… I can’t wait to hear what you think of my healthy overnight oats recipe! Seriously, thank you so much for stopping by and enjoying these
wonderful kitchen moments with me. ‘Til the next one…
classic overnight oats
½ cup gluten free rolled oats
1 teaspoon chia seeds
½ cup non-dairy milk
3 tablespoons coconut cream or non-dairy vanilla yogurt*
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract (optional, but recommended)
1–2 teaspoons pure maple syrup (optional, but recommended)**
optional toppings
½ cup fruit
1 tablespoon chopped nuts or seeds
INSTRUCTIONS
If making two medium servings, set aside two resealable jars. Here are the resealable glass jars that I use. If making one large serving, set aside one large jar.
Add all ingredients to two medium jars or one large jar, leaving enough room to stir. Or, add all ingredients to a mixing bowl for easier stirring, then pour into jars when done.
Stir until well mixed. Seal jars.
Store overnight in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. Overnight oats will become thicker as each day passes. If desired, add non-dairy milk to thin it out. Enjoy cold, or heat in the microwave in 20-second increments until warm. Optionally, top with your favorite toppings.
