How do you eat overnight oats?

I always eat them cold, because it’s usually Summertime when I make them. But you could also heat overnight oats in the microwave, for 45-60 seconds.

And you can also add your favorite toppings afterward. Maybe an extra drizzle of peanut butter or banana slices.

Are overnight oats healthy?

Oats are a super healthy breakfast! Here are the reasons why I love this particular recipe:

  • High protein: This jar of oats has 22 grams of protein!
  • Heart healthy: Old-fashioned oats are a whole grain, which are high in fiber and can help lower cholesterol. If you’re gluten-free, make sure you use certified gluten-free oats.
  • Healthy fats: The chia seeds and peanut butter help keep you full much longer!
  • High in nutrients: All the great vitamins you get from the banana and other ingredients make this a nutritious breakfast and help you get in what you need in a day!
