I love making overnight oats for breakfast because they are super simple to make as well as extremely nutritious, filling and delicious. You can make endless variations and flavors and tweak the recipe to cater your taste buds and diet restrictions.

Below are other versions of overnight oats as well as chia seed pudding recipes, which I also make sometimes to change things up.

For this strawberry coconut overnight oats recipe I actually proceeded differently than my other overnight oat recipes. I pureed the strawberries prior to adding them to the mix and that made the oats look more homogenous. I also loved the pink color that it gave the recipe and so did my daughter. She now wants to have pink oats all the time, which is fine by me. I think next time I will do it with blackberries and turn it purple. I think she is going to love that version too.

I am going to start making other variations soon. Such a great and healthy breakfast alternative overnight oats can be.

Enjoy!

In large mixing bowl mix all the ingredients. You may need a little bit more milk if you like. I like mine a bit more liquid like than pudding consistency so I add more. Place in the refrigerator overnight and eat the next morning.

  7. I have tries many overnight oats recipes and while they were good this recipe is TO DIE for!!!! I have now made it for the second week in a row and I make mine with organic blueberries (and I swear it tastes better than I could ever imagine!!) And my daughter who is 15 months I use mixed berries and she devours it!! This is THE best recipe!!!! Thank you we love it!

  8. This might be an odd question, but I’ve never made overnight oats before. Do you eat these cold the next day? Or do you heat them up? Thanks!

  9. What an easy and great idea for breakfast!

  10. This looks so fantastic. I love muesli and this looks like it might be easier to reproduce at home. Thanks for sharing. :)

  11. Looks delicious! Could I use regular milk instead of almond milk?

  12. I have never tried making overnight oats, but my girls love oatmeal in the morning. This recipe is going to be a wonderful surprise for them because. Thank you!

  13. This looks great, but I don’t think I have all my oats straight. Are rolled oats the same as “old fashioned” oats? And if not, can you used the “old-fashioned”? Thanks.

  14. Can you scale this down to one serving for me?

  15. Could I use coconut milk instead of almond milk? Or do you have another alternative that might work? I can’t do nuts or dairy. Thanks.

  16. i followed the instructions completely and mine looks way different and doesn’t taste that Good :( I’m going to have to retry because this looks amazing.

    • Sam, it is probably the maple in it.  I am not a fan of maple and strawberries.  Just omit the maple. It will still be sweet and wonderful!

  17. I just made these with my 3 year old and she wanted a bowl before we even put them in the fridge overnight. She ate all that I gave her and is excited for the morning. Thanks for sharing this recipe.

  18. Would steel cut oats make this recipes any different?

  19. If you add a grated green apple to the mix, it’s even healthier and you won’t need the maple syrup as a sweetener

  20. Would steel cut oats work?

  21. I have used oat groats & even buckwheat groats instead of oats in my overnight oats recipes & I like the more chewy texture so steel cut should work…you just have to chew a bit more. :)

  22. Miriam these are actually heavenly! I made these last night…super quick and easy! use rice malt instead of maple as none left. my husband and I both chomped on them this morning….slightly warmed with a sprinkling of omega seeds and raw honey! Thank you for sharing xx

  23. Does it have to be a glass container?

  24. Is it okay to separate the recipe Into six different servings before putting it in the fridge overnight? 

  25. Absolutely the BEST overnight oats recipe I’ve ever tried!! I mean it is AWESOME!!!!! Thank you for sharing this!

  26. Just tried this for breakfast and we all loved it!! Great recipe!

  27. If you don’t have the glass bowl can u use plastic Tupperware cups

  28. Looks awesome! Do the frozen strawberries need to be thawed out before pureeing?

  29. Can i use quinoa instead of oats?
