Ingredients
Scale
Overnight Oats:
- 1/2 cup + 2 tbsp (GF) old-fashioned rolled oats (large flakes)
- 1/2 cup vanilla, unsweetened almond milk
- 5 tbsp vanilla coconut yogurt
- 1/4 tsp pure vanilla extract
- 1 tbsp pure maple syrup OR rice malt syrup OR date nectar OR raw honey
- 1/2 cup fresh organic blueberries
- 1 tbsp chia seeds
- 1 handful crumbled walnuts or granola (for topping)
Blueberry Chia Compote:
- 2 cups fresh blueberries
- 1 heaping tsp lemon zest
- 2.5 tbsp fresh lemon juice
- 2 tbsp pure maple syrup
- 2.5 tbsp chia seeds
- 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
Superfood Add-Ins (optional):
- 1 tbsp collagen powder
- 1 tbsp lucuma powder
- 1 tbsp hemp hearts
Instructions
- Combine Overnight Oats Ingredients. In a small mason jar or container, mix the rolled oats, almond milk, coconut yogurt, vanilla extract, chosen sweetener, fresh blueberries, and chia seeds thoroughly to ensure the oats are well coated with the liquid and yogurt base.
- Prepare Blueberry Chia Compote. In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine blueberries, lemon zest, lemon juice, maple syrup, chia seeds, and vanilla extract. As the blueberries soften and burst, use a wooden spoon to mash them gently. Increase heat to medium-high until the mixture boils, then reduce slightly and cook for 5 to 8 minutes, stirring often, until it thickens. Remove from heat and let cool.
- Sweeten and Mix Oats. Once the compote has cooled, stir 1 tablespoon of it into the overnight oats mixture. Taste and adjust sweetness by adding more compote or sweetener if needed.
- Chill Overnight. Seal the jar or container and refrigerate overnight or for at least 4 hours to allow the oats and chia seeds to absorb the liquids and flavors.
- Serve with Toppings. Before serving, top the soaked oats with an additional tablespoon of blueberry chia compote, fresh blueberries, and a handful of crumbled walnuts or granola for texture and crunch.
- Add Superfood Boosts (Optional). For added nutrition, stir in collagen powder, lucuma powder, and hemp hearts before serving for extra protein, fiber, and caramel-like flavor notes.
