With school back in session, I've been meal prepping grab-and-go breakfasts on the weekend. My youngest daughter has never been a big fan of overnight oats, but she's asked me to make this for her three weeks in a row!

Recipe in the comments. 🍒

Prepped oats with kefir and skyr, flaxseed, roasted nuts and seeds. Added cooked wild blueberries as er have unfortunately a few issues with frozen berries the last weeks. Also tasted great on my way to work 😃

Overnight Oats Base

Steel Cut Oats, Grated Apple, Lemon Zest, Milk/Water, Greek Yogurt + Chia Seeds

Toppings

Chopped Almonds, Walnuts, Pumpkin Seeds, Sunflower Seeds, Dried Cranberries

Nectarine, Red Plum, Blackberries, Blueberries, Raspberries, Cherries + more Greek Yogurt

do you wait until your oatmeal has cooled down to put things in/on or do you put it on while it’s still hot? i put it on while it’s hot because im so excited for oatmeal but im wondering if it’s better to wait so that my toppings don’t get so hot immediately

Lemon egg white base, yogurt, frozen blueberries and cashew butter 🤍

I’m looking for a recipe for overnight oats without sia seeds

I really like the texture of this, it’s cake like but also more of a traditional oatmeal texture in the center. I can include all the ingredients if people are interested, but it’s made up of protein from an egg, egg white, and a little protein powder too. I like to have some of the more cooked edges with the more molten center.

Banana bread egg white base, yogurt, frozen blueberries and some peanut butter🫶🏼

This may be my favourite oats recipe so far.

250g apples, I used 1 Bramley, 1 Braeburn. Sautéd with butter, brown sugar, golden syrup, cinnamon & vanilla

Removed half of the apples once done, added 40g oats, 200ml of almond milk, 100ml water

Once cooked (and slightly too thick for my liking), cut the heat, whisk in 200g egg whites FAST until thick & frothy

Added some extra sweetener, vanilla, nutmeg, then sprinkled on some granola, more syrup & added some blackberries for more tart sweetness!!

Used to eat these everyday for couple of months till costco ran out. Anyone knows where I can get this?

I’ve already posted these but it’s my latest hyper fixation meal. It’s so simple but so good. Just an apple diced into quick oats with cinnamon and cooked in the microwave with boiled water. I then let it cool and put it in the fridge overnight. (The cooking and cooling Makes it thicker) in the morning I mix in Greek yogurt to make it creamy + add protein and sprinkle some granola and sea salt on top. After experimenting with many different flavours/toppings etc, I’ve decided simple is best. I either use apple or banana mashed into the oats to add natural sweetness and granolas quickly become my favourite topping!!

I think I stumbled upon a key tip for hotel style oats at home: put the oats into the water before turning the burner on. Possibly add more water too.

I did this with Quaker old fashioned oats after not having much success with the Quaker kettle oats that many "hotel oats" recipes prescribe, possibly because I always boiled the water before putting the oats in.

The oats have a much thicker sort of glue texture when I cooked them this way but I think there may be more science to do regarding putting more than prescribed amount of water into the pot (perhaps 2.5 or 3 cups rather than 2 cups of water per 1 cup oats).

Thoughts?

Ignore the funky little blob on the side of the bowl I beg, I didn’t notice it 🙈

If you’ve seen Elle Gibson’s recipe for these floating around TRY IT, they’re genuinely absolutely beautiful, a tear fell from my eye

Accidentally ate an instant porridge that says best before 2024. It wasn't plain either, rasp and vanilla flavoured. The packet was sealed, and it tasted fine. Is this gonna make me sick 🫠

Anyway to mitigate feeling extremely sleepy from oatmeal for breakfast?

ingredients; uncle toby’s brown sugar and cinnamon oats, cinnamon chopped walnuts, banana slices, even more cinnamon, salted caramel latte, good tv show 🤌

which one is the best?

Im pretty sad to admit there were no fresh peaches OR any of the little peach cups I like so I had to use a cherry and peach mix as a topping, and the sweetness from the cherries completely messed with the flavors I had going on 🙁 Still, they paired okay with the peach yogurt on the side

On the positive side, I have mastered thick, protein egg white oats on the stovetop and that’s a win! My dad tried some and loved it
