What You Need
- rolled oats
- vanilla almond milk, unsweetened
- chia seeds
- maple syrup
- all natural peanut butter
- Jelly or preserves

Guide to Overnight Oats
This is our guide to overnight oats. In this post, we’ll teach you how to make overnight oats and how to flavor them, too! We have a base recipe that we swear by and have tested 8 simple flavor variations so that you don’t get bored.
Variations
- Protein powder: if you’re looking to add more protein to your breakfast, try adding 2 tablespoons of your favorite protein powder.
- Swap the jam for berries: not a huge jam fan? Use mashed berries instead.
- Use peanut powder instead of peanut butter: a commenter asked if you could use peanut flour/pb2 instead of peanut butter and you absolutely can. We recommend swapping 1:1 and then adding a bit more liquid to make sure it’s not too thick.

I’m a 32DDD so yeah, I feel you! It is incredibly difficult to find clothes that fit right and I’ve basically resigned to feeling disproportionate for the rest of my life 🙂 Don’t even get me started on bathing suits or sports bras and cute little yoga shirts? Not gonna happen. The good news is, every time I have admitted my size to another female, they are totally shocked so I guess it’s not as overt as I think it is 🙂
AHHHHHH girl I feel you. Yes most people are always like WHATTTTTT?! Noooooo! It’s because I smash em in with a sports bra.
I am anti jelly haha. So i would definitely be skipping that part for more strawberries. My husband loves it though and sometimes he will try to get me to eat it especially if it is a special kind like the black raspberry jelly his aunt made. But I still think it is weird and gross. I also almost always heat up my overnight oats. Not so they are hot but just so they are warm!
I also have large tatas and they can definitely get in the way when I am working out! I went to Soma for the first time last month and found out I was wearing the really wrong size. I went down a band size and up 2 cup sizes. My bra definitely feels a lot better now though!
Oh! Soma is GREAT. I have a strapless that I LOVEEEE.
One of my best friends had the same type of issue & ended up getting a reduction since it was much needed! She said it was the best decision she’s made for her body & health since she’s very fit but still had discomfort!
Ahhhh! That makes me wanna!!
Okay, for a minute I was like.. she’s a Dunkin Donut?
….You need more male readers. This needs to be fedex’d. Stat.
I think you’re the only one 😛 minus Blake…
Arman and Blake aren’t the only male readers. I can’t wait to try this one.
Uhhh hows about you just give me some of your boobage bc dis gurl struggles to fill her A cups lololol. Late bloomer?!
I didn’t have a pb&j until a few years ago but I’ve been making up for it since then 🙂 this would be so good with my grandma’s strawberry jam!
doode I was a mega late bloomer. Senior year of high school i woke up with a c cup. I didn’t get my period Til I was 16…sooo I think that explains it! Also your parents defs deprived you of the greatest food on earth!
What a beautiful looking jar of oats 🙂 I love that you layered the strawberries at the bottom. I would take one of these in a second!
Thanks, lady!
So you don’t put yogurt into your overnight oats? I like th thicker texture it gives the oatmeal!
Can you imagine that I’ve never had a real pb&j sandwich?? It’s not a thing here in Germany – not at all! Like apparantely all cool things from the US… PB for example only got famous over the couple last years now, and other nut butters are just starting to popping up in health food stores (but are insanely expensive!). But on the other hand, we have quark! Ha! 😀
I do use yogurt in some of my overnight oat recipes…I just didn’t in this one 😀 YOU’VE NEVER HAD A PB AND J. OH EM GE GIRL FRAN. Do you just make your own nut butters then? Also- what the what is quark?
This looks really yummy Lee, nice job!
So when do we get the post with sports bra reccs?? 😀 Gotta love em cause we’re stuck with em!
Title: Best Sports Bras for Big Boobies.
I think bra shopping sucks universally and I’m between an A and B! Funny story – last year I was bra shopping for my wedding dress and the girl at Victoria Secret looked at me before sizing me and said I was definitely a D cup. Umm no more like an A!
BTW do you ever make your overnight oats in almost empty peanut butter jars? I have a stash and my husband thinks I’m crazy! He just doesn’t understand.
Wow that chick was WAYYYYY OFF. OMG I SAVE ALL THE PB JARSSS and Blake get’s so pissed. One day he went in to “clean out my collection” and I almost cried.
