Overnight Oats with Pomegranate and Almond Butter
We love waking up to a big bowl of creamy oats in the fridge that we know we can just grab and make a bowl in minutes. You can easily vary the toppings for more diversity, as long as you are including different sources of healthy fats, which is key to helping you feel fuller for longer. When you make your overnight oats to last you for the next few days, you can easily make your snacks for the week at the same time, if following our recipe for baked oat squares, as the ingredients are very similar and so will save you time and prep!
RecipesMakes 3 servings.
Ingredients:
- 250g oats
- 3 tbsp coconut yoghurt
- 300ml oat milk
- 2 tbsp chia seeds
- 2 tbsp dried cranberries (optional)
- 2 tbsp goji berries (optional)
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- 3 tbsp maple syrup
- Pinch salt
To add:
- 1 tbsp toasted pecans
- 1 tbsp flaked almonds
To top:
- 1 tbsp almond butter
- 1 tbsp pomegranate seeds or berries
Method:
- Mix all ingredients (except the nuts and toppings) together in a big bowl or container until all combined. Leave in the fridge overnight or for at least 3 hours to soak and thicken. The texture should be thick and creamy when ready. The oats will last for 3 days in the fridge in an airtight container.
- When serving, add a ⅓ (about 4 tbsp) into a bowl. Stir in the nuts. If you find the mixture is too thick after a day in the fridge, add a little oat milk or water and mix in to thin. Top with a tbsp of almond butter and a handful of pomegranate seeds or berries to hand.
