16+ Best Ever Overnight Oats Recipes

Overnight oats are one of the easiest, healthiest breakfast ideas that you can ever make, and ever since I first discovered them a couple of years ago, they’ve become a morning favorite and a weekday staple for my family! You can do all the prep the night before, so it’s just a case of grabbing your jar, giving it a good stir, adding any extra toppings you might be in the mood for, and tucking in. They’re portable, they’re loaded with protein in the form of Greek yogurt, and best of all, there are just so many different flavors and varieties to explore that you needn’t ever get bored.

Whether you’re in the mood for something super simple like vanilla overnight oats (this is the one I make on repeat!), or something cozy like my banana-bread inspired overnight oats (my kid loves these!) there’s something here you’ll want to try…

1. Vanilla Overnight Oats

A straightforward, no-fuss recipe that uses ingredients you’ve probably already got in your fridge and pantry. These vanilla overnight oats are endlessly customizable and so reliable – I’ve made these dozens of times and they’re great for the mornings when you just need something to grab and go without it becoming a whole project!

2. Healthy Banana Overnight Oats

These are seriously cozy, and just so good for you. They taste just like banana bread, and they’re the kind of breakfast that everyone in the family will be happy to eat. I love these warmed up, but they’re just as good served cold if you need to grab and go.

3. Strawberry Almond Overnight Oats

With chia seeds for extra fiber and goodness, and a totally beautiful homemade compote (don’t worry, it’s really easy!) these plant-based strawberry almond overnight oats last for up to 4 days in the fridge and take just like dessert.

4. Chocolate Peanut Butter & Banana Overnight Oats

Made with rolled oats, chia seeds, banana, and peanut butter, these are packed with fiber and protein to help keep you full all morning. Cocoa powder gives them a chocolately taste without needing to mess around with melted chocolate, so they’re weekday friendly and always a hit with kids too.

5. Apple Pie Overnight Oats

These ones are my favorite to eat during fall and the colder months, but they’re good at any time of the year! The apples are soften and slightly caramelized with cinnamon, and though you can skip that step if you want and just use raw apples, I definitely recommend it for extra coziness!

6. PB&J Overnight Oats

Make them for the nostalgia! The easy no-cook strawberry chia jam really takes these ones over the top, and it’s an easy breakfast that’s packed with flavor that I could easily eat on repeat. High in fiber and makes meal prep worthwhile.
