Here’s why you should start eating overnight oats today.

 

Why overnight oats are healthy?

 

Aside from being easy to prepare, they are also healthy for our general health and well-being. Eating overnight oats every morning, if you prefer, will help our body energize and have a fulfilling day. Soaking oats overnight has many health benefits, including:

 

1. High in Fiber:

• • Oats are good for the digestive system as they help our intestines to avoid inflammation and to have a great metabolism since they are high in beta-glucan and dietary fiber.

2. Great source of Protein:

• • It is one of the most essential nutrients of oats may support building muscle, good for skin, hair, bones, and body tissue.

3. Carbohydrates:

• • The body will have long-lasting energy as a result. These long-chain carbohydrates absorb into the blood more gradually, minimizing a surge in blood sugar levels. Oatmeal should be consumed two-three hours before exercising if you enjoy sports.

 

Basic plant-based ingredients in a jar!

 

It’s either a bowl or a jar. It depends on you how you enjoy these overnight oats recipes. These are easy to find and require a few plant-based ingredients that you will want to have in your pantry. When buying in the supermarket, make a habit of checking the labels to make sure they are organic, vegan, or completely plant-based. Below are a handful of ingredients.

 

1. Old-fashioned Oats

• • These oats are recommended used on recipes we have rounded up for you. But some of the recipes use steel-cuts oats. To make the overnight oats gluten-free I suggest choosing or buying certified gluten-free oats brands.

2. Plant-based Milk/Dairy-free

• • In this recipe, feel free to use any of your choice of milk such as almond milk, soy milk, cashew milk, coconut milk, or any plant-based milk. Make sure they are dairy-free or plant-based.

3. Maple Syrup

• • Alternatively, use your favorite sweetener like agave, swerve, stevia, or any vegan sweetener.

4. Seeds

• • Milled or whole Chia seeds are commonly used in the overnight oats recipe. If chia seeds are not your thing, you may substitute sunflower seeds, hemp seeds, pumpkin seeds, sesame seeds, or poppy seeds.

5. Vanilla Extract

• • It gives an aromatic flavor and a pleasing flavor to the overnight oats we’ve prepared for you. I suggest not skipping this ingredient.

6. Optional Toppings

• • Top with fresh or frozen fruits you may like, nuts, vegan yogurt, whipped cream, and shredded coconut. These are optional but a great addition.

 

Ingredient Note

• The overnight oats we’ve rounded up for you are all made with plant-based ingredients, including their plant-based ingredient substitute.
• Don’t be afraid to experiment by using your favorite vegan toppings.

 

 

Have a fulfilling Overnight Oats

 

Overnight oats are easy to make no required cooking, just mixing! A Mason jar, bowl, or an airtight container sealed required storage to mix all the required ingredients for overnight oats. Below are the easiest steps to make:

1. In a preferred container, combine all the ingredients until they are incorporated.
2. Refrigerate overnight or until 8 hours.
3. Serve with your favorite toppings. Enjoy!

 

Recipe Note

• For the crunchier texture: Add the toppings before serving.
• Serving warm: They can be served warm by putting them into a microwave for at least 1-2 minutes.

 

Storing Tips

• Keep them in a refrigerator for at least 3-4 days. However, I do not advise freezing because the texture would be runny.
