Banana & Blueberry Overnight Oats

You can’t beat the classic flavours of banana, blueberry, and peanut butter for your overnight oats. Sometimes the classic flavours are all you need. Blueberries, bananas, and peanut butter work so perfectly with overnight oats, that they are very often my go-to. Adding some extra micronutrients from the berries, energy from the banana, and healthy fat and protein from the peanut butter, these overnight oats are the perfect post-workout breakfast, or afternoon pick-me-up.

The basic ingredients for overnight oats are always the same for me:

• Oats

• Vanilla extract

• Chia seeds

• Cinnamon

• Non-dairy yoghurt (my fave is always coconut for sweetness)

• Non-dairy milk

• Maple syrup

• Sea salt

Added to the basic overnights recipe, to create that yummy blueberry flavour you’ll need:

• Blueberries

• Banana

• Walnuts

• Peanut butter

Start by prepping your basic overnight oats recipe. You can leave out the yoghurt if you prefer, as it isn’t totally essential. For this variation, mash your banana and add it in with a few blueberries and a teaspoonful of peanut butter (alternatively you can use any other nut butters such as almond, cashew etc.). Save some blueberries for the topping.

Top with the extra blueberries and some walnuts (or your favourite nut, or even some extra peanut butter), then place in the fridge overnight to set. This will allow the chia seeds and oats time to combine to create a delicious pudding-like texture.

I love to drizzle over extra maple syrup in the morning, for added sweetness!

Notes

You can store these overnight oats in the fridge for a few days, so this is perfect for meal prep. I would advise doing it at most 2-3 days in advance just to be safe! It is so easy to whip up that you can do this on the weekend and again mid-week if you like to eat overnight oats each morning.

Switch up the nut butters, and walnuts for topping to your favourite kind!
