Equipment

Ingredients

2 1/2 cups old-fashioned oats
1/4 cup ground flaxseed
1/4 cup chia seeds
1/4 cup agave
2 cups almond milk

For Peanut Butter Chocolate:

1 tbsp cocoa powder
2 tbsp natural peanut butter

For Apple Cinnamon:

2 tsp cinnamon
1/2 apple, diced

For Pumpkin Chocolate Chip:

1/3 cup pumpkin puree
2 tbsp mini dairy-free chocolate chips

For Very Berry:

1 tbsp strawberry jam
3/4 cup mixed berries

Instructions

In a mixing bowl, combine the oats, ground flaxseed, chia seeds, agave, and almond milk.
Divide the mixture into 4 separate jars. Add the cocoa powder, cinnamon, pumpkin puree, and strawberry jam to their designated jars.
Layer each jar with the remaining toppings.
Refrigerate the jars for at least an hour.
Enjoy your vegan overnight oats cold or microwave for 30 seconds to serve them warm.

Notes

Make sure to use rolled oats! Quick oats will be too mushy, while steel-cut oats will be too tough for overnight oats.
If you want to make 4 servings of just one flavor, you only need to multiply the toppings/add-ins by 4.
Why stop with overnight oats 4 ways? Use peanut butter, jam, fresh strawberries, and peanuts for a PBJ-inspired variation, or mashed bananas, chocolate chips, walnuts, and cocoa powder if you love chocolate chip banana bread. Peaches and granola will also be delicious, like peach crisp overnight oats!
