My regular comforting oatmeal is in the summer switched for this cold and crunchy recipe. I make it at least twice a week, and I can never get bored of it, it's so so good.

I was new to the world of overnight oats, so I started with this recipe like Sadia recommended. It. Was. ✨D E L I C I O U S✨. I can't even express how grateful I am to the PUL team for working so hard and putting these amazing recipes on the Internet for us (and for free!). Thank you 😍

I was new to overnight oats and actually also to oatmeal in general, and this was a great entry recipe :). Very easy to make in batch in multiple jars (and just add milk the night before). I liked to add some cinnamon. Very tasty!

We're so happy you enjoyed this one, Sonia, it means so much 😃

I had a change of heart in the morning after making the oats and ended up cooking it on the stove and doubling the milk. Completely different dish but it inspired my warm chocolate oatmeal breakfast.. sprinkled toasted coconut flakes and warmed up some frozen berries on the side. which is still delicious so thanks PUL! :D

Aw this is so incredible to hear, Dee, thank you for sharing!

I honestly really disliked overnight oats and took a chance with this recipe. I'm so glad I did, it has completely converted me to an overnight oats lover! A must-try if you're trying to incorporate more oats into your diet - I'd also imagine kids would love this recipe as well! Maybe even as a school lunch?

PUL Team - July 13, 2021, 4:19 a.m.

A massive thank you for the review, Rebecca, it means so much! So glad you've joined team overnight oats 😎

Overnight oats recipes have been such a great discovery for me! Not only tasty/ desert like things for breakfast, but also so easy to make in advance and nice to know there's something waiting for you in the morning:)

PUL Team - July 11, 2021, 12:39 a.m.

Gotta love overnight oats 😍 Thank you for the review, Daria!

This is so tasty!
Do you think this could somehow work as a breakfast bar to eat on the go?

PUL Team - June 9, 2021, 5:07 a.m.

Hi Yara, interesting question! It may be tricky to get the mixture to stick together to bring on the go. Perhaps adding less liquid with a bit more nut butter, firmly pressing the less wet mixture into a pan, and freezing or baking it may be one idea? If you're interested in a bar recipe, you may have more luck with our Hazelnut Granola Breakfast Bars recipe (pickuplimes.com/recipe/hazeln…) Happy cooking 🤗

This has become my breakfast of the moment, with a little drizzle of date syrup. And I really love the scaling feature in the new site!

Ooo we're so honoured, Sarah! So happy you're enjoying the new features of the website too 😀

I don’t know why but my 1/2cup of oats are 55g not 40g :c

PUL Team - April 7, 2021, 3:26 a.m.

Hi Mari! Thank you for sharing this with us. It could be the type or brand of oats being used! Two other possibilities are the quality of your scale and also being sure to subtract the weight of whatever you're weighing the oats on 🙂 40 grams is an estimation, so if the recipe turns out with more oats that would be okay too 😀

These are my favorite overnight oats! I like to top the jar with frozen cherries so they thaw by morning. Sometimes I add a bit of yogurt, too. So delicious.

PUL Team - April 2, 2021, 6:13 a.m.

We're so happy to hear, Lydia! We enjoy serving it was yogurt as well 😀

I love the creaminess that the almond butter gives this overnight oat. Nice and filling with a refined touch from the chocolate. I’ve discovered that oat milk (biased since I use Oatly from Sweden...) is the better option for all PUL’s overnight oats. It doesn’t have any odd “background” flavour and is creamy unlike other options.
Love to top this breakfast with thawed strawberries or stewed apple with raisins and cinnamon

Sadia - March 15, 2021, 9:31 a.m.

The creaminess is my favourite part about these overnight oats 😊 and Oatly really is the best! Thanks so much, Louise!
