Blueberry Pecan Overnight Oats
Posted on July 4, 2011 | 2 Comments
Overnight oats are my favorite summertime breakfast. They are cold, hearty, and flavorful. What’s not to love? Oh, and they’re incredibly simple to prepare!
Although my favorite non-dairy milk (Almond Breeze Unsweetened) works well here, pretty much any non-dairy milk and non-dairy yogurt you have in your kitchen should work in this recipe. I’ve had great success with EdenSoy’s Rice & Soy blend here as it gives a richer end result.
Ingredients (2 servings)
3 tablespoons sweetened, dried blueberries
8-10 pecan halves, broken into small pieces (about the size of a blueberry)
1 cup regular (not instant) rolled oats
1 cup non-dairy milk
6 oz. blueberry soy yogurt
1 teaspoon ground flax, optional
Method
Stir all ingredients in a bowl, cover and chill in the refrigerator overnight, up to 24 hours. Serve chilled.
Variation – Cranberry Walnut Overnight Oats
3 tablespoons sweetened, dried cranberries
8-10 walnut halves, broken into small pieces (about the size of a cranberry)
1 cup regular (not instant) rolled oats
1 cup non-dairy milk
6 oz. plain soy yogurt
1 teaspoon ground flax, optional

Fabulous variations on one of my favourite breakfast staples. I’ve never tried adding soy yogurt to the mix.
Thanks.

Thanks for your comment – yogurt is great for creaminess, but I don’t always have it on hand so anything goes with these oats!
Oh, and I love your blog!! The treats you share are so mouth-watering, it’s downright dangerous 🙂 In fact, I had better add a link to my blogroll right now…
