What you need,
For the Basic Overnight Oat recipe,
½ cup old fashioned oats (don’t use the quick oats here,
they get too soggy!)
½ cup milk (I always use 1% because it is what we have in
the house.)
1 heaping tablespoon of vanilla Greek yogurt (optional but I
really like the added creaminess!)
1 tbsp. honey
Combine all the ingredients in a medium mason jar and stir
to combine.
Now you could stop there and just eat them like that… or you
can add in all the fun things!
Today I had what I think is my favorite,
Peanut Butter Banana,
Just add in one small banana sliced, 1 tablespoon of peanut
butter (whatever kind you like, mine happens to be Jif!), and 1 tablespoon of
mini chocolate chips, cause why not!
Stir into the base recipe and stash in the fridge!
SO SO good!
I have also tried,
Apple Raisin,
½ and apple diced, 2 tablespoons of raisins and ½ teaspoon
of cinnamon.
Pumpkin Pie,
1 heaping tablespoon of pumpkin puree, ½ teaspoon raisins, ½
teaspoon pumpkin pie spice, ½ tablespoon of brown sugar.
Blueberry Banana,
1 small banana, sliced, ¼ cup blueberries (fresh or frozen),
½ teaspoon of vanilla.
All these variations have been very delicious! I have quite
a few more recipes pinned to try, like Carrot Cake, Coconut Pineapple, Mixed
Berry, and Cinnamon Roll…. Don’t those all sound amazing!
