Overnight oats make an amazing on the go breakfast, no cooking required! Something just so great about a make ahead breakfast, especially one so yummy and healthy!
I use large flake oats because I really like the texture but you can use regular rolled oats as well. Chia seeds can be purchased at most health food stores and even at grocery stores (often in the ‘organic’ area) or online. With chia seeds, a little goes a long way and you only need a couple of tablespoons in this whole recipe. They are also great tossed into smoothies, sprinkled over your cereal, or mixed with breadcrumbs for an extra crunchy chicken coating … or to make your own chia pet! ;) I used 1/2 pint mason jars but you can use any container you have handy.
This recipe calls for mango & berries but you can use any type of fruit. These will keep in the fridge for up to 5 days, perfect for each day of the week!

What can I use instead of the yogurt? My kids are GF DF SF. Any suggestions as it sounds yummy.
Could you tell me how long these last in the refrigerator? Thank-You

What size are the jars, please :) ?
My jars are 8oz.but you can use any size.
This is just what I’m looking for! I get up at 5am to get ready for work, and I often skip breakfast. Something I can just grab from the fridge, and even take with me, is ideal. Thank you :)
Such a great, nutritious breakfast Holly! Love you can make it the night before, or even days ahead. My kind of breakfast. And this recipe makes just enough for our family! Score.
Thank you Allie!!
This is an old article, so I don’t know if you will see my question.. .
Do you cook the oats first??
As you may have guessed, I have a bit of trouble in the kitchen.
But I’m really very nice. Lol
The oats do not need to be cooked.
