Since warmer weather means berries are at their very best, start your day with this “serve cold” breakfast loaded with bright and juicy berry goodness.

Why this Recipe Works:

  • Using only 5 ingredients, this vegan breakfast couldn’t be easier to make.
  • The berries and the maple syrup (or monk fruit) give these oats a wonderfully sweet flavor.
  • Overnight oats are a super convenient, healthy, and delicious way to start your day.
  • All of the prep for this recipe is done the night before, so all you do in the morning is remove the oats from the fridge and grab a spoon!

Are overnight oats healthy?

  • Yes they are! Oatmeal is one of the healthiest foods you can eat. It’s loaded with fiber, magnesium, protein, and other nutrients. It’s super filling too.
  • Fun fact: Soaking the oats overnight helps with digestibility.(Ok, it’s not really a “FUN fact” but still good to know!)
  • This recipe is particularly healthy because of the berries. They’re loaded with fiber and antioxidants.

Top Tips for Making Red, White and Blue Overnight Oats:

  • I prefer to use almond milk in this recipe, but feel free to use any non-dairy milk you’d like.
  • Blackberries and raspberries would also go really nicely with these oats.
  • If you want to make breakfasts for a few days, triple this recipe – your morning self will thank you!

Ms. Audrey, I am disabled and experience lots of fatigue. I do love the Overnight Oats. For quick and easy for say a couple of weeks at a time… can I put my measured oatmeal, and any dry things like nuts coconut etc. in jar, add the correct amount of fruit using frozen fruits (more available) on top, put a lid on then store in freezer till putting it down in fridge then add fresh milk, liquids and seasonings etc, to soak for the night etc. Would that work?
