Overnight Oatmeal In A Jar
Recipe Key
Thisย overnight oatmealย made in a jar is a healthy, make-ahead breakfast that’s perfect for busy mornings.
Prepare this at night and have breakfast waiting for you when you wake up! Serve warm in the winter or cool in summer when you don’t feel like eating something warm. ย
I use gluten free oats because I am sensitive to gluten.ย I save my gluten eating for something fabulous like fresh sourdough bread dipped in olive oil. ย Steel cut oats will work fine.
I use homemade hemp milk for extra protein. Click here for the recipe. Any diary free milk will work.
Substitutions
- Use strawberries or cherries instead of the blueberries.
- ย Instead of berries add inย 2 Tb of goji berries, dates or dried cranberries
- Make it with 1/2 almond milk and 1/2 coconut yogurt, it comes out really creamy!
