We all love to have a delicious breakfast to start our day, but sometimes it’s hard to find time for something that’s both nutritious and delicious. Make these Blueberry Overnight Oats for a breakfast that’s easy to make and eat on the go!
Why Your Whole Family Will Love Blueberry Overnight Oats
- Easy. Mix all of the ingredients, pour in a jar, and allow to chill overnight.
- High Protein. With 4 grams of protein per serving, you’ll be well on your way to achieving your protein goal for the day.
- Vegetarian. Not a fan of bacon and eggs for breakfast? This is a fantastic vegetarian breakfast option.
- Delicious. Mix your favorite combination of toppings and sweeteners for the perfect overnight oat recipe.
Are These Low Carb Overnight Oats?
A low-carb lifestyle can be anything from 20 to 50 net carbs a day. So, these are still technically low carb Overnight Oats with 14 carbs per serving.
That being said, you will need to see if the carb count fits into your macros and adjust your toppings and the number of oats you use in this recipe before reaching for your next spoonful.
These have about 1/4 c of oats in them each so not the lowest carb but still quite filling and have good, natural protein in them.
How To Make Overnight Oats
- Mix all ingredients except the fruit together in a bowl. The mixture will be fairly liquid.
- Add milk of choice or water until it is sloshing about. You want enough liquid in there for the oats to grow and swell and absorb all of it. The result should be like milk with stuff in it, not a thick mix.
- Taste for sweetness and adjust as needed.
- Place into individual jars/containers and add fruit on top. I don’t mix the fruit in because I find it gets soggy. Also this way, you can make several different kinds of flavors in one batch.
- Refrigerate overnight and enjoy!
Variations
The beauty of these Blueberry Overnight Oats is that they can easily become Strawberry Overnight Oats or Peanut Butter Overnight Oats with just a swap of ingredients.
Here are a few of my favorite varieties:
Remember to adjust your nutritional facts if you’re following a strict low calorie or low carb diet
- Strawberry Overnight Oats - Make this recipe as listed but top with perfectly sweet strawberries.
- Mixed Berry Overnight Oats - Mix in your favorite assortment of berries to keep it low carb and delicious before refrigerating.
- Peanut Butter Overnight Oats - Add some extra creaminess by stirring in a spoonful of peanut butter.
- Chia and Honey Overnight Oats - Add chia seeds with your oats and allow them to chill overnight. Drizzle with honey for an extra touch of sweetness.
Tips And Tricks For Making Perfect Overnight Oats
Tips and tricks for such a simple recipe? Believe it or not, making the perfect Overnight Oats was a trial and error process for me. There are several things that can turn this recipe from a delicious breakfast treat to a gummy, unappetizing mess.
Here are a few helpful tricks to help you make the perfect Blueberry Overnight Oats every time:
- Use quick oats, not steel cut or rolled oats. Other varieties of oats may not soften completely overnight.
- Greek yogurt will make this a high protein breakfast option.
- Personalize it. Nothing starts your day like a delicious breakfast. Customize your overnight oats with your favorite mix-ins and toppings.
Are Overnight Oats Healthy?
What is considered healthy for one person may not be healthy for another depending on their preferred dietary lifestyle.
That being said, these Blueberry Overnight Oats are loaded with healthy ingredients, and if they fit into your dietary lifestyle, grab a spoon and enjoy them as often as you would like!
Can Overnight Oats Help You Lose Weight?
Overnight Oats are incredibly filling and high in protein. This will help you feel satisfied for longer periods of time. While the calories and carbs might be a little on the high side for a traditional low-carb diet, the ingredients in these Blueberry Overnight Oats are healthy and satisfying.
This may help you from overindulging in a meal or snack later in the day and help put you on the path to weight loss.
