A quick and easy overnight oats recipe that captures the cozy cinnamon roll flavor with creamy Greek yogurt, perfect for busy mornings.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1/2 cup rolled oats (45g)
  • 1/2 cup milk of choice (120ml) – dairy, almond, oat, or soy
  • 1/4 cup Greek yogurt (60g)
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • 1 tbsp maple syrup
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 tbsp chia seeds (optional)
  • Pinch of salt
  • 1 tbsp cream cheese, softened (optional)

Instructions

  1. Combine 1/2 cup rolled oats and 1 tbsp chia seeds in a jar or container.
  2. Add 1/2 cup milk and 1/4 cup Greek yogurt to the oats and chia seeds.
  3. Mix in 1 tsp cinnamon, 1 tbsp maple syrup, 1/2 tsp vanilla extract, a pinch of salt, and if using, 1 tbsp softened cream cheese. Stir or whisk until smooth.
  4. Seal the jar tightly and refrigerate for at least 6 hours or overnight.
  5. In the morning, check the consistency and stir in a splash of milk if too thick.
  6. Top with favorite toppings such as chopped nuts, sliced banana, or extra maple syrup before serving.

Notes

Stir the oats halfway through soaking if possible to distribute flavors evenly. Adjust milk amount in the morning for desired consistency. Prep multiple jars for up to 4 days of grab-and-go breakfasts. Use old-fashioned rolled oats for best texture. For vegan/dairy-free, substitute coconut or almond yogurt and plant-based milk.
