Raspberry Overnight Oats are a delightful and nutritious way to start your day. This make-ahead breakfast combines the wholesome goodness of oats with the vibrant flavor of raspberries, creating a meal that’s both satisfying and convenient. Perfect for busy mornings, these oats offer a balance of creamy textures and fruity freshness that will keep you energized throughout the day.

Ingredients & Substitutions

You can find the full printable recipe, including ingredient quantities, below. But first, here are some explanations of ingredients and steps to help you make this recipe perfect every time.

• Rolled Oats: Opt for old-fashioned rolled oats for the best texture. They absorb liquid well and maintain a pleasant chewiness. You can find them in the cereal aisle of most grocery stores.
• Chia Seeds: These tiny seeds expand when soaked, adding thickness to the oats and providing a boost of omega-3 fatty acids. Look for them in the health food section or baking aisle.
• Vanilla Protein Powder: Choose a plant-based vanilla protein powder to keep the recipe vegan. If your protein powder is unsweetened, consider adding a touch of sweetener to taste.
• Plant-Based Milk: Almond, soy, or oat milk work well in this recipe. Select your preferred variety to achieve the desired creaminess.
• Plain Vegan Yogurt: This adds a tangy flavor and extra creaminess. Coconut or almond-based yogurts are excellent options.
• Raspberries: Fresh or frozen raspberries can be used. If using frozen, thaw them slightly before mixing to make the preparation easier.
• Maple Syrup: A natural sweetener that enhances the flavor without being overpowering. Adjust the amount based on your sweetness preference.

How to Make Raspberry Overnight Oats

Making overnight oats is even easier than it sounds! With just a handful of ingredients and four simple steps, you’ll have a delicious, grab-and-go breakfast ready in no time. Let’s get started!

Step One: Prepare the Oat Base

Start by grabbing a medium-sized bowl. Add the oats, chia seeds, and protein powder—I like to mix these while they’re dry to ensure even distribution.

Next, pour in the plant-based milk and yogurt, stirring until everything is well combined.

Step Two: Make the Raspberry Chia Jam

Now for the fun part—the raspberry layer! In a separate bowl, gently stir together the raspberries, chia seeds, and maple syrup. Use the back of your spoon to lightly mash the raspberries, helping them release their juices and blend into a jam-like consistency.

Step Three: Assemble the Layers

Take two serving jars or glasses and spoon a portion of the oat mixture into the bottom of each. Then, add a layer of the raspberry chia jam on top. Repeat the layers, ending with a final spoonful of jam for a beautiful finish.

Step Four: Chill and Enjoy

Cover the jars with lids or plastic wrap to keep everything fresh. Pop them in the refrigerator and let them sit for at least 2 to 4 hours, or overnight. This gives the oats time to absorb the liquid and soften while the chia seeds thicken the mixture.

When you’re ready to eat, add your favorite toppings—fresh raspberries, sliced almonds, shredded coconut, or a drizzle of maple syrup—for extra texture and flavor. Then, dig in and enjoy your perfectly chilled, nutrient-packed breakfast!
