Healthy Blackberry Overnight Oats are perfect for breakfast. Made with 7 simple ingredients – these oats are filling, delicious + a great way to start the day!
Overnight oats were a big thing a few years ago but they’re still a go-to in my book! Especially these Blackberry Overnight Oats 😍 I love how easy they are…and y’all know I’m all about easy, but tasty meals! They’re packed with 30 grams of protein, this will help reduce your hunger throughout the day & keep you fuller, longer. I love experimenting with different protein powder flavors as well – Chocolate, Peanut Butter, Snickerdoodle – you name it, Amazon probably has it! This is an awesome on-the-go breakfast and saves well for a couple days so make a few ahead of time for an easy breakfast!
Ingredients:
1 C rolled oats
3/4 C almond milk
1/2 scoop vanilla protein powder
1/2 C blackberries

1 tsp. lemon zest
1 tsp. vanilla extract
Optional toppings: extra fresh blackberries, extra honey drizzle
Directions:
Mix together the oats and almond milk in a mason jar.
In a large bowl, stir in the protein powder, blackberries, honey, lemon zest and vanilla extract.

Divide overnight oats into 2-16 oz. mason jars or these overnight oat containers and top with extra fresh blackberries and a drizzle of honey.

How to store:
Any airtight container will work for storage, but my favorite containers for overnight oats are 16-oz mason jars with washable lids. The spoons are even included which makes life that much simpler!
You can make overnight oats ahead of time and store for up to 5 days in the fridge in an airtight container. You can also make this recipe in individual containers, verses a large bowl, and prep them that way.
Recipe Variations & Ideas:
Add chopped nuts like sliced almonds or pecans for some healthy fats, fiber and a little extra protein
Top with chia or flax seeds for extra fiber and protein.
Top with granola and other fresh fruit, like sliced bananas to add even more flavor and texture.
Drizzle with peanut butter or almond butter for a creamier texture.
