The Most Amazing Vegan Overnight Oats

The Most Amazing Vegan Overnight Oats with Vanilla flavor and topped with an out-of-this-world Vegan Chocolate Peanut Butter Banana Smoothie! All the hearts in my eyes!

Ever been in need of a healthy grab-and-go breakfast? I certainly have. There are countless mornings I’ve left the house without having breakfast because there simply wasn’t the time to prepare and eat one.

Vegan Overnight Oats are my very best friend for those mornings I already know will be very, very busy.

The smoothie on top is just a absolutely delicious EXTRA but not absolutely necessary. If you don’t have the extra 3 minutes to throw everything in a blender, simply make 3/4 cups oats instead of 1/3 and keep it simple.

Can Vegan Overnight Oats Be heated?

Absolutely! Obviously not the smoothie on top but the oats themselves can be heated either in a microwave or in a pot.

I prefer them fridge-cold, though. They are absolutely delicious cold and topped with an ice-cold smoothie. Yes! Even in the winter!

How Long Can Overnight Oats Stay in the Fridge?

Generally overnight oats can be kept in the fridge for up to 5 days. Provided, the milk you used to soak them in didn’t have an earlier expiration date.

That means, you can prepare your oats for the whole work week ahead of time and just grab your breakfast and go to work from Monday to Friday.

Is that amazing or what?

How To Make Vegan Overnight Oats

Now, it’s probably the simplest recipe you’ll ever hit on the internet. So much so I felt like I HAD to add the smoothie on top so it looks like something mega stellar, hahaha.

The base recipe is just:

• add oats to a container
• add equal amount of favorite vegan milk
• spice it up with any or all of these: vanilla, maple syrup, cinnamon, pumpkin spice….
• next morning eat either just like that or top with: smoothie, nuts, seeds, fresh fruit…..
