Overnight Oats

I love overnight oats as a quick and easy breakfast option (and great if you have to avoid eggs)ā€¦ BUT between the oats, a sweetener and some fruit on top, it can very easily become a carb bomb that puts you on a blood sugar rollercoasteršŸŽ¢. The best way to avoid that is to add healthy fats and protein to your oats! Full fat yogurts and milk (dairy or dairy free!), chia and hemp seeds, nut butter, neutral protein powders or collagen are your friends here!


Recipe:

  • 1/2 cup GF sprouted oats

  • 1/2 cup milk of your choice (I like canned coconut milk or homemade nut milk)

  • 1/2 cup yogurt (i like culina or cocojune)

  • 1 TBSP chia seeds (I use mamma chia)

  • 1 TBSP maple or honey

  • 1/2 TSP vanilla extract

  • pinch of salt


Optional add-ins: protein powder (or collagen peptides work great), berries, evo hemp hemp hearts (code ā€œrachelā€), shredded coconut, a drizzle of almond or cashew butter!


Here are a few different flavor combos I do if I want to mix it up!


-add 2 tsp of tahini and a chopped date or two!

-add 1 tsp of instant coffee (i love king coffee )!

-add cacao powder and chopped strawberries or banana!

-add a pinch of cinnamon, ginger and clove!
