What Are Overnight Oats?
Overnight oats is a no cooking method for making oatmeal.
Instead of cooking the oats in hot water and serving hot, just soak the oats with cold milk, yogurt, chia seeds, sweetener, and a hint of salt.
In this method, the oats and chia seeds will absorb all the liquid and end up in a soft, creamy, cold, and thick textured uncooked oatmeal while you sleep, or within 6-8 hours. Top it with some fresh fruits, nuts, and seeds if you wish.
Basically, mix all the ingredients at night, wake up in the morning for a healthy breakfast called Overnight Oats.

Tips For Making High Protein Mango Overnight Oats
- Old fashioned rolled oats work the best for this recipe. It gives the perfect texture to the overnight oats.
- You can use any kind of milk. I like to use almond milk or low fat milk in this recipe.
- I have used some regular greek yogurt, you can use any of your choice or a dairy-free yogurt.
- If you are not a fan of protein powder, you can completely skip adding it and add a dash of vanilla for flavoring the overnight oats.
- The best oats to liquid ratio is 1:1 – This means for each 1/2 cup of oats, you need ½ cup of milk. We are blending the mangoes with the milk – I have added â…” cup milk. You can add some more milk if you find it very thick just before eating.
- You can add some ground flaxseed or 1/2 tsp tukmaria seeds (holy basil seeds)
- For making a bigger batch: Just double/triple the recipe, mix all the ingredients in a large mixing bowl, cover it with a plastic wrap, and store it in the refrigerator. On the next day, scoop out around 1 cup from the bowl into individual serving bowls and add some flavors like vanilla, coconut, almond extract, nutmeg, cardamom, or cinnamon powder.
