Blended Overnight Oats (2024)

Blended Overnight Oats Recipe: The Creamiest Breakfast Oats!

Why blend overnight oats? Because you get the creamiest oats that taste like you’re eating cookie dough for breakfast! Don’t get me wrong, I love my classic overnight oats for breakfast. But there’s just something different and SO good about this blended overnight oats recipe!

They’re creamy and sweet and have the perfect texture. You can add any mix-ins or toppings you want! I love chocolate chips and peanut butter or almond butter for a cookie dough flavor, but these oats could also be delicious with fresh strawberries, chopped nuts, coconut flakes, and so much more. Easily make them vegan and adjust the sweetness to taste!

Tips for the BEST Blended Overnight Oats

• Adjust the thickness of these oats to taste! If the oats seem too thick in the morning, add a little more milk and mix.
• You can also adjust the sweetness of the oats by adding more (or less) maple syrup!

My Favorite Jars for Overnight Oats

I get so many questions about my overnight oats jars! Here are a few of my favorites:

• These Vintage Glass Coffee Mugs with Lids are perfect for overnight oats! They’re so pretty, too.
• If you’re storing a big batch of these in the fridge, then these Glass Overnight Oats Containers come with a lid and a spoon.
• You can’t go wrong with simple mason jars and airtight lids especially if you’re planning on storing these long-term in the freezer!

Storing/Meal Prepping Oats

To meal prep oats, make a big batch of this recipe and pour it into jars with airtight lids. If you’re using fresh fruit as a topping, it’s best to wait until you’re ready to eat them to add the toppings! Otherwise, you can go ahead and add toppings/mix-ins.

These Blended Overnight Oats can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3-5 days! They can also be frozen for up to 3 months. When ready to enjoy, thaw them in the fridge the night before. In the morning, add milk to adjust the thickness (if necessary), and add any toppings you want!
