These Blueberry Overnight Oats blend rolled oats, blueberries, yogurt and vanilla into a creamy breakfast with a blueberry-cheesecake flavor. They take about 10 minutes to prepare, can be eaten straight away for a thinner texture, and become thicker as they chill.

Key ingredients
Blueberries: Blend the frozen blueberries into the oats. Use fresh or frozen extra blueberries in the jars.
Yogurt: I use soy or coconut yogurt, but any thick Greek-style yogurt works.
Instructions
Making Blended Blueberry Overnight Oats is super simple and should take you about 10 minutes to prepare.
Step One: Add the rolled oats, milk, frozen blueberries, yogurt, vanilla extract, maple syrup (if using), and a pinch of salt to a blender.
Step Two: Blend until a mostly smooth, batter-like consistency forms.
Step Three: Divide the additional blueberries evenly among jars or bowls. Pour the blended oats mixture over the blueberries, smoothing the top with a spoon.
Step Four: Melt the dark chocolate and, if desired, mix in the coconut oil to thin it slightly (this makes the shell easier to crack through).
Storage
Store in airtight containers in the fridge for up to 4 days. Do not freeze.
Expert Tips
You can eat the blended oats straight away, when they will be thinner and more smoothie-like. After about 90 minutes they become thicker and more pudding-like, and an overnight chill gives the firmest, most scoopable texture.

Hi Liz! I have tried a lot of your recipes especially the overnight oats. I love them all! Can you please tell me what size jars you like to use for your overnight oats?
Liz Douglas says
hey Melissa, so glad you’ve been loving the overnight oats! i usually use 300ml jars (about 10 oz) — they fit a single serve perfectly. if you like adding extra toppings, a 400ml jar (around 13.5 oz) gives you a bit more room
