Ingredients
2cupsrolled oats
2-2½cupsvanilla almond milk or preferred milk2 cups if using almond milk, 2½ for skim or fairlife (the pudding mix will set differently)
1cupnon-fat Greek yogurt, vanilla or plainOikos Triple Zero Vanilla Bean is really good, plain has less sugar
3-4tablespoonschia seeds
3tablespoonsInstant White Chocolate Pudding Mixvanilla would be a good sub
2scoopsvanilla protein powder, optional or sub with unflavored
1teaspoonhoney, optionalper your sweet preference
Toppings: fresh or frozen berries, white chocolate chips, whipped cream
Instructions
Add all base ingredients to a large airtight container or bowl.
Whisk everything together until smooth and well-combined.
Refrigerate in an airtight container for at least 4 hours.
Give the mixture a stir after refrigeration. Add more milk if you prefer a thinner texture. For a thicker consistency, add one more tablespoon of chia seeds and let refrigerate for 4 more hours.
Separate into three bowls or jars for easy, grab-and-go breakfasts. Top with fresh or frozen berries, white chocolate chips, and whipped cream. I prefer thawed frozen raspberries (with all the juices) with chopped up white chocolate!
Easy to meal prep - store in the fridge in an airtight container for up to 5 days. Toppings included!
Notes
If you taste test the base mixture and it tastes gritty, this usually is unnoticeable after the whipped cream + raspberries + white chocolate chip toppings!
The consistency of these overnight oats will depend on the type of milk used and how many tablespoons of chia seeds are added. Typically, 2 cups is ideal with almond milk and 2 1/2 cups for most other types of milk. You can adjust easily after refrigeration and just stir in additional milk!
To make this recipe dairy-free, you can sub the Greek yogurt with a higher protein plant-based yogurt like Kite Hill. Also, be sure to use dairy-free white chocolate chips and whipped cream!

To increase the protein without protein powder, use Fairlife milk - which is also 99% lactose-free!
