Tip:

These overnight oats can be easily changed up with different fruits, like strawberries or raspberries. You can also add a couple tbsp of our Instant Oats for even more energy during the day!

The term overnight oats sounds quite adventurous, but there is no hidden meaning, it is literally oatmeal that has soaked overnight. The milk you use to soak the oats in is entirely down to personal preference. You can use almond, soy or hazelnut milk for a vegan alternative and instead of the whey protein, simply add our Vegan Protein by foodspring to the mix.
