This recipe will soon become your new favorite breakfast because:

• Quick and easy to prepare: This is the ideal breakfast to prep in advance. Combine all ingredients in a jar, and your breakfast will be ready the following day!

• Vegan, dairy-free, and gluten-free: Ideal for individuals adhering to a plant-based lifestyle or those with dietary restrictions, this recipe accommodates various allergies and preferences.

Ingredients

These recipes use the ingredients commonly used in a overnight oats recipe, plus a few cinnamon roll-inspired spices:

Rolled Oats: Opt for quick oats for a speedy outcome! Choose gluten-free options if necessary.

Chia Seeds: Contribute to the thick and gooey texture you'll love and are full of healthy fats and protein.

Brown Sugar: Infuses the recipe with its classic sweetness. Alternatively, consider coconut sugar or maple syrup for a twist!

Vanilla Protein Powder: Provides an additional plant-based protein boost.

Ground Cinnamon: Infuses the essence of classic cinnamon rolls into your oats!

Soy Milk: Feel free to swap with almond or oat milk.

Coconut Yogurt: Options include soy, almond, or Greek yogurt.

Toppings:

• Peanut or Almond Butter mixed with cinnamon: Enhances the nutty and cinnamon-filled flavors.
• Coconut Yogurt blended with maple syrup and lime juice: A healthier take inspired by the classic cream cheese icing flavors.

Instructions

1. Combine oats, brown sugar, vanilla protein powder, chia seeds, cinnamon powder, vanilla extract, plant milk, and ¼ cup coconut yogurt in a mixing bowl. Stir well to combine all ingredients.
2. Portion the mixture into individual jars or containers for overnight refrigeration.
3. For the coconut swirl, mix together 2 tablespoon coconut yogurt, 1 tablespoon maple syrup, and 1 tablespoon lemon or lime juice in a small bowl. Set aside.
4. Cover the jars and place them in the refrigerator overnight or for at least 4 hours to allow the oats to soak and thicken.
5. In the morning, give the oats a good stir. If the mixture is too thick, you can add a splash of plant milk to reach your desired consistency.
6. Top each serving with a dollop of peanut or almond butter and a drizzle of the prepared coconut swirl.
7. Enjoy your Cinnamon Roll Overnight Oats with a Coconut Swirl and Nut Butter topping, a delightful and nutritious twist on a classic flavor combination!

Storage Instructions

This recipe keeps well in the fridge for up to 3-4 days. You can eat it cold or microwave for 1 minute before serving. If you find the oats too thick, you can mix with some more soy (or other plant) milk.
