Variations and Topping Ideas
- Add protein: If you’re hoping to fit more protein into your diet, go ahead and try adding around 2 tablespoons of your favorite protein powder or collagen.
- Use a different sweetener: feel free to swap the honey for maple syrup, agave, or even brown sugar.
- Swap the peanut butter: if you can’t do peanut butter, any kind of nut butter works.
- Topping Ideas: Don’t forget the toppings…it’s the best part! We went with more sliced bananas, a dollop of creamy peanut butter, and some chopped peanuts.

I’m new to overnight oats, haven’t tried them with a banana yet but this sounds delicious! My question is: will the banana keep well overnight if I don’t cover it? I only make it for the next morning, and don’t have much equipment in my student kitchen.
I don’t like yogurt of any kind. What would be a good replacement?
I highly recommend this recipe to anyone looking for a healthy and delicious meal. The author provided nutritional information and alternatives to make the dish fit a variety of dietary needs. I felt good about feeding it to my family.
Would adding flax to this recipe make a difference?
It would be delish! + Add protein and fiber. I’d start with adding 1 tbsp. of flax meal.
Yum! So nice to have ready in the fridge when I need a quick bite of something healthy any time of day.
Great recipe! I make it for my husband often. He only eats 1/2 of the recipe for breakfast, so I double up the recipe and it lasts for 4 days. I recently started making most of it in a Nutribullet blender and it is so much easier that way! Blend everything but the oats. I also add banana slices into it, since that is what the picture shows. Since I double-up on the recipe, I add a whole, sliced banana to the recipe. I’ve done it with whole milk, almond milk, and oat milk (what we have on hand tbh). My husband hasn’t noticed any real difference, so use whatever milk you prefer!
Can this be heated in the microwave or stove top in the morning? First time trying an overnight oats recipe 🙂
They definitely can if you prefer your overnight oats served warm!
Thank you. Absolutely loved this recipe. A bit too much cinnamon for my taste but otherwise perfect. Made it to your exact measurements & definitely have leftovers for a couple of days.
I love this recipe. I made it just as you’ve written it and it’s delicious!
Wahoo!
Too much cinnamon, otherwise good recipe
Easy to make and prep for a week of lunches, and tastes great! I add a 1/4 cup of dried cranberries to it as well. I am only confused about what size the nutritional facts are based on… it states 1/2 a serving size? What’s the measurement?
I am new to overnight oats. I have tried several and this my favourite. Awesome overnight oats!!!
Yay! So happy you enjoyed them, Karen!

New into the overnight oats game and this was the first recipe I tried. To be honest, I had higher expectations. Everyone makes it sound like a dessert, but to me it was more like sweetened porridge haha.. Maybe it’s just not for everyone. But I do feel full and ready for the day ahead! Thanks for sharing
I loved this recipe. At first, I didn’t believe this would work. But I was wrong. The picture below is from before I put the oats in the fridge. This is so tasty. All I would recommend is that if you don’t have a large banana, put the whole banana in the bowl and not half. I would 100% recommend this to everyone I know!
This is truly one of my favorite overnight oats recipes!
Thank you for all the content offered by the page through your comments and information, it was a great help for some work that I had pending for the university, thanks for everything
I’ve made this a couple of times and my boyfriend and i love this recipe, thanks guys!
This is a staple for me! I’ve made this dozens of times. Sometimes I’ll add blueberries or other fruit if available. Highly recommend this recipe!
I can’t even count how many times I’ve made this recipe! I sometimes add a little protein powder to it too! This is one of my favorite breakfasts to meal prep for a busy week. Thank you!
One of my first and by now a go-to overnight oats recipe that I keep returning to (with minor tweaks: extra banana instead of yogurt and maple syrup instead of honey). There’s something delightful about the combination of various sweet tastes plus the creamy texture. Thank you!
So tastey! Can’t wait to eat it in the morning! But just curious if one serving is about a cup or half a cup?
A serving is half the recipe!
