I’ve partnered with my friends from Comvita and Watkins to make my mornings a little easier and a whole lot tastier. I’m using Comvita UMF 5+ Raw Manuka Honey to add natural sweetness in addition to a unique range of benefits. Watkins Organic Ground Cinnamon, Organic Ground Nutmeg, And Organic Ground Ginger bring on earthy, toasted flavors to these overnight oats.
This overnight, no-cook method gives the oats time to absorb the liquid and soften up. They’re flavored with the most delicious toppings any oatmeal bowl can dream of.
Ingredients You’ll Need To Make These Overnight Oats
- old fashioned rolled oats – old fashioned rolled oats are the way to go. They hold their texture best and do a diligent job of absorbing the milk. I don’t recommend using quick oats or steel cut oats. The quick oats get soggy with this method and the steel cut oats do not fully absorb the milk making them hard to eat.
- milk of choice – whole milk or any milk alternative works so well here. I’ve tried this with whole milk, almond milk, and oat milk and the creamy consistency of the oatmeal stays the same regardless of which milk is used.
- Greek yogurt – Greek yogurt (or even regular yogurt) makes these overnight oats so much more creamier with a tangy twist.
- chia seeds – adding chia seeds to the base helps boost protein, fiber, calcium, and healthy fat content.
- Comvita UMF 5+ Raw Manuka Honey – I’m using Comvita’s UMF +5 Raw Manuka Honey to add a natural sweetness to these overnight oats. Comvita’s Raw Manuka Honey contains a unique range of beneficial oligosaccharides and prebiotics, amino acids, polyphenolic and other plant-derived compounds. It comes from the nectar of the Manuka flower in the pristine forests of New Zealand. It’s raw, wild, unpasteurized, non-GMO project verified, and certified gluten-free. It really is the gold standard for honey!
- Watkins Organic Ground Cinnamon – I’m using Watkins Organic Ground Cinnamon to add toasted, earthy flavors that pair well with apples, pecans, nutmeg, and ginger. Watkins is committed to offering tried-and-true, clean, and sustainable products such as spices, extracts, rubs, seasonings, and marinades with a focus around healthy living since 1868.
- Watkins Organic Ground Nutmeg
- Watkins Organic Ground Ginger
- chopped apple – use your favorite kind here! I’m using gala apple for these oats.
- chopped pecans – pecans pair well with apples, cinnamon, nutmeg, and ginger.
The directions are fairly simple.
For the base: Add the old fashioned rolled oats, milk of choice, Greek yogurt, chia seeds, Manuka honey, ground cinnamon, ground nutmeg and ground ginger into a medium sized container and mix it all together until it is well combined.
Cover the container with a lid or plastic wrap and place it into the refrigerator for at least 2 hours, or overnight for best results.
The following morning, remove the lid and add in the chopped apple and pecans. Top it off with a little more cinnamon and drizzle with Manuka honey. Grab a spoon and enjoy!
The texture is similar to chia pudding and it’s best enjoyed cold.
