These Oatmeal Cookie Overnight Oats are a hearty and delicious way to eat your whole grains. Prepare this easy recipe in 5 minutes and enjoy in the morning.

Oatmeal is just the perfect breakfast for anyone. It is hearty, filling, and full of whole grains. While most people are used to boiling their oats and then eating it warm with maple syrup, refrigerated overnight oats are also a really a wonderful way to eat them. Not only are they a great way to infuse a lot of different flavor combinations, they are an easy, on-the-go way to get a healthy breakfast.

Overnight oats are done in your fridge while you sleep and ready when you get up. How convenient is that? So grab a spoon and get ready to enjoy this Oatmeal Cookie Overnight Oats recipe. While this recipe is for one serving, it can easily be doubled or tripled for more than one person and each serving placed into its own container.

Oatmeal Cookie Overnight Oats Recipe

Ingredients:

  • 1 cup whole oats
  • 2 tablespoons brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon molasses
  • 1/4 cup raisins
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1 glass container with a lid (Mason jars work well for this or glass containers with hinged lids that seal tight.)

Directions:

1. Mix all ingredients together in a bowl and make sure everything is evenly distributed. It will be more liquidy than you may be used to when you make hot oatmeal. Don’t worry, it will soak into the oats and become thicker by the next morning.

3. Store in the refrigerator overnight. If you will be making this to eat in the same day, it will need to be in the fridge at least 6 hours. Stir it up a little before you eat it.

4. Serve cold as you dash out the door.

Welcome. I'm Alea!

On Premeditated Leftovers I share simple recipes made with whole foods, practical shopping tips, time saving techniques, and meal planning strategies. I also share tips for minimizing food waste, so more of the food that is purchased ends up on the table.

While volunteering as a budget counselor, I realized that food is the element of most people’s budgets where they have the greatest control. I set out to develop low-cost recipes from scratch to prove it’s possible to create delicious meals on a limited budget. Eating well while spending less is about more than just creating recipes using inexpensive ingredients; it’s about creatively combining ingredients so you don’t feel deprived and are inspired to stick to your budget.
