These Raspberry Overnight Oats are going to change your routine (for the better) if you find you are skipping breakfast because you are constantly running behind in the mornings. They are the perfect breakfast for you to grab in the mornings on your way out the door. Breakfast is ready before you’ve even gotten out of bed. It’s basically like you have a butler but really it was you being super productive the night before! These dairy-free overnight oats have a hint of lemon flavour to them, protein from the nut butter and chia seeds, and the perfect creamy texture from letting them sit overnight. A classy and filling breaky for those busy mornings.

What are overnight oats? If you don’t know what overnight oats are, they are basically a no-cook method of making oatmeal. It is typically served chilled right from the fridge and desired toppings can be added at that point. This raspberry oatmeal follows suit, as it is prepared the night before and then a raspberry filling is added along with coconut yogurt. These Raspberry Overnight Oats are perfect for when you are short on time in the mornings and when you are in need of a somewhat high-protein vegan breakfast.

How to Make Dairy Free Overnight Oats

These raspberry overnight oats only takes 15 minutes to prepare so it is quite simple to make. Start with the oat mixture. Add everything to a bowl and mix well. I chose cashew butter for my nut butter but any nut butter will work it just might alter the flavours a little. The Nuts To You butters are my FAV and can be found in most grocery stores.

  1. Once the oat mixture is good to go, place it in a sealed container in the fridge. Let it sit there for at least 6 hours (or overnight).
  2. The raspberry filling can be made at this point or in the morning if you do have time. If using fresh berries, add them to a food processor along with the maple syrup and chia seeds and blend until you’ve reached a desired consistency. If using frozen raspberries, heat them up in a small saucepan with the maple syrup until they become soft. Then blend them like above with chia seeds until a smooth texture forms.
  3. You can add the raspberry filling into the overnight oats right away, but I like to spoon it into the raspberry overnight oats in the morning as I layer the oats with coconut yogurt and the raspberry filling.
  4. To assemble these dairy free overnight oats, add some oats to a jar with some raspberry chia filling and coconut yogurt. You can assemble it all the night before as well if you are short on time in the morning. It truly doesn’t make a difference to the taste or texture but the colours my blend a little so it might not look as appealing.

How Long Do Overnight Oats Last

These raspberry overnight oats last for about 4 days. They will get softer and softer the longer they sit in the fridge so after 4 days they aren’t especially good. I like to make them every two days (if eating them for breakfasts that week) so they stay somewhat fresh.

These raspberry overnight oats are a cinch to make. So easy to prepare, you will wonder why you didn’t start making dairy free overnight oats before now. If it’s too chilly in these winter months to eat something cold in the morning, just let these oats come to room temperature before enjoying and all will be good. This delicious oatmeal with chia seeds is at the tips of your fingertips. This recipe uses simple ingredients but is loaded with great flavours and a spot-on texture. Who knew breakfast could be easy to make AND classy.
