Coconut Cream Pie Overnight Oats
Coconut Cream Pie Overnight Oats — because who says you can't have dessert for breakfast? With just five minutes of prep the night before, you'll wake up to a creamy, coconut-packed bowl that tastes indulgent but fuels your whole morning.
Ingredients
- ½ c rolled oats regular or gluten free
- ⅔ c unsweetened coconut milk or milk of choice
- 2 T shredded coconut
- 1 T chia seeds
- 2 tsp pure maple syrup
- 2 T coconut yogurt coconut flavored, I used to use 2 tsp coconut butter, but it is not as accessible
- ½ tsp vanilla
- Dash of sea salt
Instructions
- Add all of the ingredients to a bowl or a jar with a tight-fitting lid.
- Stir everything together until the mixture is well combined.
- Seal the container and refrigerate overnight, or for at least 4 hours, to allow the oats to soften.
- Enjoy your overnight oats chilled or gently warmed. Add your favorite toppings, such as toasted coconut flakes, fresh berries, or sliced almonds, before serving.
Notes
- An earlier version of this recipe called for coconut butter instead of yogurt. Coconut butter works, but it can harden and get tricky to work with. If you have some on hand, feel free to stir a small spoonful in alongside the yogurt.
- Gluten-free and dairy-free friendly. Just look for certified gluten-free rolled oats, and swap in dairy-free yogurt and plant-based milk — both are easy to find now.
- Mix-in ideas: Try raisins, dark chocolate chips, sliced almonds, fresh mango, flaxseed, protein powder, or a dusting of cocoa powder. Make the recipe your own.
