Cinnamon Roll Overnight Oats offer a cozy and hearty breakfast perfect for fall meal prep. This healthy, gluten-free recipe combines oats, cinnamon, and a creamy yogurt topping to create a deliciously wholesome start to your day, reminiscent of a cinnamon roll but without the guilt.

Ingredients

Base Ingredients

  • ½ cup oats (quick, rolled or minute)
  • 1 tablespoon chia seeds
  • 2 tablespoons vanilla protein powder (optional)
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • ⅛ teaspoon salt
  • ¾ cup milk of choice
  • 1 teaspoon maple syrup
  • 4 tablespoons plain Greek yogurt
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Topping

  • Additional cinnamon, for topping
  • 1 tablespoon plain Greek yogurt
  • 1 teaspoon icing sugar
  • Splash of milk of choice

Instructions

  1. Combine Dry Ingredients: In a small container or mason jar, add oats, chia seeds, vanilla protein powder, cinnamon, and salt. Stir these ingredients together to create an even base for your overnight oats.
  2. Add Wet Ingredients: Pour in the milk of choice, maple syrup, Greek yogurt, and vanilla extract. Stir the mixture thoroughly to combine all ingredients evenly.
  3. Refrigerate to Thicken: Cover the container and place it in the fridge to thicken and soak for at least 3 hours, though overnight is preferable for best texture and flavor.
  4. Prepare the Topping: Whisk together the Greek yogurt, icing sugar, and a splash of milk until smooth. Store the topping in the fridge until ready to serve.
  5. Assemble and Serve: In the morning, sprinkle additional cinnamon over the oats, then drizzle with the prepared yogurt topping for a creamy and sweet finish. Enjoy chilled.

Notes

  • Use any milk of choice such as dairy, almond, oat, or soy milk to suit dietary preferences.
  • The vanilla protein powder is optional but adds extra protein for a more filling breakfast.
  • Overnight chilling enhances the texture and flavor, making the oats softer and more delicious.
  • This recipe is naturally gluten-free if using gluten-free oats.
  • Feel free to add toppings like nuts, fruits, or seeds for added crunch and nutrition.
