Description

A cozy and creamy bowl of overnight oats topped with caramelized banana, granola, vegan yogurt, and almond butter – perfect for chilly mornings or anytime you want a nutritious treat!

Ingredients

Scale

For the Oats:

  • 1 cup cashew milk (or milk of choice)
  • 1/2 cup gluten-free rolled oats
  • 1/4 cup chopped or shredded zucchini (optional, for extra creaminess and nutrition)
  • 1–2 scoops protein powder (optional, for added protein)
  • 1 tablespoon chia seeds
  • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
  • Pinch of salt

For the Caramelized Banana:

  • 1 banana, halved lengthwise
  • 1 teaspoon coconut oil

For Toppings:

  • Blueberries
  • Almond butter
  • Vegan yogurt
  • Granola

Instructions

  • Prepare the Overnight Oats
    In a jar or bowl, combine cashew milk, rolled oats, zucchini, protein powder, chia seeds, cinnamon, and salt. Stir well to mix and ensure the chia seeds are evenly distributed. Cover and refrigerate overnight (or for at least 4 hours).
  • Caramelize the Banana
    When ready to serve, heat coconut oil in a small skillet over medium heat. Place the banana halves cut-side down in the skillet. Cook for a few minutes until golden and caramelized. Flip the banana and cook the other side for 1–2 minutes. Remove from heat.
  • Assemble and Serve
    Remove the oats from the fridge. You can eat them cold or warm them in the microwave or on the stovetop. Top the oats with the caramelized banana, blueberries, almond butter, vegan yogurt, and granola. Serve immediately and enjoy this comforting, nutritious breakfast!

Notes

  • Customize Toppings: Add your favorite nuts, seeds, or even a drizzle of maple syrup for extra sweetness.
  • Zucchini Substitute: If you’re not a fan of zucchini, leave it out or replace it with grated carrot for a slight twist.
  • Meal Prep: Make multiple jars of overnight oats at once to have breakfast ready for the week.
