Well, maybe grabbing a granola bar or something, but a batch of overnight oats is definitely more filling and delicious!
I love experimenting with various flavors and textures in my overnight oats. Adding different spices, fresh fruits and nuts can make a boring batch of overnight oats ten times more delicious.
Sometimes playing around with different flavor combinations in the kitchen pays off and results in a pretty fabulous creation.
That was the case with this batch of vanilla walnut overnight oats. The nutty flavor of Silk Pure Almond Unsweetened Vanilla paired perfectly with cinnamon and walnuts to make a comforting bowl of overnight oats with 15 grams of protein to help keep me full for hours.
I didn’t add any additional sugar outside of the vanilla Greek yogurt and since the unsweetened vanilla almond milk is lower in sugar than skim milk, this bowl of overnight oats has only 8 grams of sugar. Feel free to top the oats with a bit of honey or brown sugar if you like your overnight oats a little sweeter!

I love overnight oats! Do you know if they plan on bringing Silk Pure Almond to Australia?
just sent them a tweet to ask! i’m not sure!
Really great! Nice work and love the pics! I also am a FFA and wasn’t this so much FUN!
Congrats and I can’t wait to try this. YUM!!
I never meet an overnight oats that I did not love!
Nice to meet you too. 😉
Yum!!! I just started making overnight oats. We love them. I do have a quick question. Do you ever use ground chia seeds instead of the whole seed.
My mouth is watering, this looks so good! Making right now to have in the morning… Thank you!
I love recipes like this… i love pretty much any recipe that tastes like dessert but is healthy
All of the recipes on https://healthyrevelations.wordpress.com are just like that 🙂
This looks soo good and healthy but I am allergic to dairy. Is there something I can substitute the greek yogurt for?
Thanks 🙂
I think this is one of my favourite summer breakfasts. And even though I am living in Mexico, its still an easy one to do when I get sick of tamales for breakfast (one day looking back I will wonder how I said that).
