Get your glow on with this easy recipe for creamy overnight oats, boosted with chocolate granola, raspberries, and crunchy add-ins.

Overnight Raspberry Oats with Chocolate Granola

Mixing a batch of overnight oats has become a daily must-have in my life. Ideally, all of my mornings would start off with only the best positive vibes, including a pot of matcha green tea and a bowl of some form of oats before I roll out my yoga mat.

That energizing combo of a nourishing breakfast and mindful stretching never fails to get my head totally in gear for the hours ahead.

Whether you call it a Bircher bowl, morning porridge or pudding, overnight oats with tasty add-ins are a comforting, nourishing meal — it’s a perfect routine to start the day.

Nourishing Raspberry Overnight Oats

This easy plant-based breakfast recipe is creamy, light and satisfying. The creamy base of this bowl starts with quick-cooking oats, which I blended with oat milk, fresh fruit, and a bit of maple syrup for natural sweetness. You can either make this recipe the night before or when you wake up.

Either way, you’ll be rewarded with a bowl full of good stuff, including whole grains, raspberries, and chia seeds.

I’m a fan of keeping my pantry stocked with good ingredients. But when I don’t have time to whip up a batch of homemade granola, overnight oats made with good store-bought granola is a great pick.

Prep tips:

  • It takes just a few minutes to prepare this bowl, and will thicken up in less than 30 minutes.
  • If you’d like to make this ahead, mix the recipe the night before and chill in the refrigerator.
  • Enjoy the oatmeal at room temperature. It also tastes great fridge-cool, if you like.
