Gluten-Free Overnight Oats

Having breakfast ready to go has made my morning routine so much simpler. These gluten-free overnight oats have become a staple in my meal prep routine—perfect for a filling and delicious start to the day. Each jar is layered with creamy Greek yogurt, gluten-free oats, and a touch of sweet maple syrup. The best part is they’re completely customizable, so I never get bored. I can top them with fresh fruit, crunchy nuts, or even a sprinkle of chocolate to satisfy my sweet tooth.

Equipment

  • 1 mason jar

Ingredients

  • 2/3 cup gluten-free rolled oats
  • 2/3 cup milk
  • 1/4 cup Greek yogurt
  • 2 teaspoons maple syrup
  • 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Toppings Fresh fruit, nuts, seeds, or nut butter

Instructions

  • Combine oats, milk, yogurt, maple syrup, and vanilla extract in a jar or container.
  • Stir well to ensure everything is mixed.
  • Cover and refrigerate overnight or for at least 6 hours.
  • In the morning, stir the oats, add your desired toppings, and enjoy.

Notes

  • Not all oats are gluten-free. Make sure to use certified gluten-free rolled oats to avoid cross-contamination.
  • If you use quick oats, the texture will be softer. I don’t recommend using steel-cut oats as they’re thicker and will be chewier and possibly not soaked through.
  • Any milk works—dairy, almond, coconut, oat, or soy. Choose based on your dietary preference and flavor preference.
  • Fresh fruit, nuts, seeds, nut butter, shredded coconut, chocolate chips, or granola are great options.
  • Warm them in the microwave or on the stovetop for a few minutes if you prefer them hot.
  • Sometimes, my oats are a bit thick in the morning, so I just add a splash of milk and stir to loosen the consistency.
