So good for your gut, with 17 grams of fibre (including soluble fibre!) these gluten free overnight oats have a low FODMAP swap too!

Overnight oats are always a go-to in this house – the magic of waking up to breakfast ready to go is never lost on me. This coming from someone who often wakes up, works out, gets her kids fed and off to school and then realizes she hasn’t eaten yet because her stomach starts screaming at her.

I know, I know…but just because I’m a dietitian does not mean I’m not prone to the same slip ups you are! I need this as much as you do ha ha.

Sooooo… it’s pretty dang handy to have something to reach for when hunger strikes. I’ve had my black forest overnight oats on repeat for months and I was thinking that the change of seasons called for a new flavour combo!

These sticky date overnight oats are made a wee bit differently, as we’re blending the oats, almond butter and soy milk together first to infuse it with flavour.

And if you’re like, but I don’t want a cold breakfast on a chilly morning…you do realize that you can heat up your overnight oats, yes??? So essentially, it’s like prepping your oatmeal the night before, already dressed up.

Okay, let’s talk prep!

These vegan date overnight oats are a full meal all on their own, with 18 grams of protein (zero protein powder or Greek yogurt!) and 17 grams of fibre, but a little crunch from some chopped pecans or diced pear could be great too!

You can use any dates you have on hand, but the sticky, jammy texture of Medjools is ideal in my opinion.

Heads up: even though we’re using dates, these dairy free overnight oats are NOT that sweet. If you prefer a sweeter taste, blend in another date to the liquid, for a total of 3 dates.

If your dates aren’t a bit on the dry side, I recommend giving them a soak in hot water 5 minutes before for easier blending.

Larger appetite? Add 1/2 cup oats instead of 1/3 cup.

Equipment

  • immersion blender or bullet blender

Ingredients

  • ¾ – 1 cup soy milk use 1 cup if heating the next morning; see notes for low FODMAP variation
  • 2 Medjool dates divided
  • 1 tablespoon almond butter
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla
  • ¼ teaspoon cinnamon
  • ⅛ teaspoon salt
  • ⅓ cup rolled oats
  • 2 tablespoons chia seed
Imperial – Metric

Instructions

  • In a bullet blender or a wide-mouth blending cup, add the soy milk, one date, almond butter, vanilla, cinnamon and salt and blend until smooth. It’s okay if the date isn’t fully blended for this one.
  • Chop the remaining date. Pour the date milk into a mason jar and add the chopped date, chia seeds and oats. Stir vigorously, fasten the lid and place in the fridge for at least 4 hours and up to 4 days.
  • To heat, place the oats in microwave safe container and warm in 20 second increments OR add to a small pot and warm over medium until steaming.

Notes

Need a low FODMAP variation? All you need to do is swap soy milk for almond milk! To make up the protein, add 1/2 a scoop of a FODMAP friendly protein powder.
