WHY YOU WILL LOVE THIS RECIPE

• These Oreo Overnight Oats are a great nutritious breakfast or snack that comes together in less than 5 minutes!
• It’s perfect for busy mornings because you can make it ahead of time.
• Cute and portable – throw it in your bag and bring to school or work with you.
• Overnight oats are a healthy balanced breakfast with a great dose of good carbs, fiber and protein from the yogurt.
• A fun and healthier way to enjoy everyone’s favorite cookies and cream flavor!
• You can easily make these oats gluten-free and/or vegan (see how in the post below)
• If you like dessert inspired breakfasts, make sure to also try my Biscoff Overnight Oats.

WHAT YOU WILL NEED

• Oats: either old-fashioned rolled oat or quick oats will work for overnight oats. For this recipe I like quick oats for creamier texture but if you prefer more of a “bite” and chewiness, go with rolled oats.
• Plain Yogurt: I used plain lowfat yogurt from Sonyfield but use whatever yogurt you like. Plant-based yogurt, such as coconut, oat or soy will work great for a vegan version.
• Milk: similarly to yogurt, the choice of milk is yours – any dairy of plant-based milk (almond, oat, soy, coconut) can be used in this recipe.
• Chia Seeds: for some extra fiber, protein and healthy fats. I used white chia seeds but black seeds will also work.
• Maple Syrup: to sweeten the oats. You can also use honey, monkfruit, coconut sugar or sweetener of choice.
• Vanilla: use real vanilla extract or vanilla bean paste for best flavor.
• Chocolate Wafers: I like to use chocolate wafers by Nabisco because they’re a bit less processed than Oreos. Most grocery stores carry them, at least in my area. If you prefer, you can use 2 crushed Oreo cookies instead.

HOW TO MAKE OREO OVERNIGHT OATS

STEP 1: Break chocolate wafers or Oreo cookies into pieces.

STEP 2: Add yogurt, (plant) milk, maple syrup, chia seeds and vanilla.

STEP 3: Mix until combined. Avoid mixing too much to preserve distinct cookie pieces in your oats.

STEP 4: Place in the fridge for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight.

STEP 5: Serve and enjoy!

SERVING SUGGESTIONS

Serve Oreo overnight oats on their own or topped (or layered) with your favorite plain or vanilla yogurt and crushed Oreo cookies.

• Fresh berries (strawberries, blueberries, blackberries or raspberries)
• Chopped dried fruit
