These grain-free and Paleo Overnight Oats have all the delicious taste of an oat recipe, without the grains! You’ll love the unique combination of nuts, seeds, and shredded coconut with some extra milk and topped with berries. Serve warm or cold, you can’t go wrong either way!
Breakfast has been our best meal the past few weeks. With lots of time spent at home and these slow mornings that I am loving more and more each day, we are getting creative around here!! A big bowl of these Paleo Overnight Oats has definitely happened on a few occasions already.
If you’re reading this and wondering what the heck are overnight oats? I’ll attempt to do them justice. Dried oats are soaked in milk with honey, maple syrup, or whatever sweetener you prefer and then topped with all the delicious toppings. In the morning, you wake up to a bowl of creamy magic.
These Paleo Overnight Oats allow you to have all the amazing-ness without the grains! Nut butter? Sure. Extra crunch with almonds? Why not. All kinds of customizable options here.
Let’s get started!
How to make Paleo Overnight Oats:
To get that yummy texture of oatmeal, we’ll combine some simple ingredients. These happen to be nutrient dense with a fantastic combo of healthy fats, fiber and protein:
- chia seeds
- hemp seeds
- shredded coconut
- coconut flour
- dairy-free milk
- sweetener like maple syrup or honey
- chopped almonds
- berries (optional)
- nut butter (optional)
We’ll begin by combining the chia seeds, hemp seeds, shredded coconut, coconut flour in a bowl.
Dump in at least 1 cup of dairy-free milk of choice (add sweetener if you are using). I use homemade cashew milk. Give it a good stir, and let it sit in the fridge overnight or for at least 3 hours. The mixture will be a nice thick porridge when ready!
Serving:
To enjoy, add an additional milk to the bowl and top with berries, extra nuts, and maybe even a drizzle of nut butter!
You can even heat up for a warmer “oatmeal like” bowl. So delicious and comforting!
