• Tastes Like Dessert: All the sweet, fruity flavor of blueberry pie in a healthy breakfast form.
• 5-Minute Meal Prep: The perfect make-ahead breakfast for busy mornings.
• Healthy & Filling: Packed with fiber from oats and chia seeds, plus antioxidants from blueberries.
• Simple Pantry Ingredients: Made with just a handful of common kitchen staples.

Ingredients

• 1/2 cup Rolled Oats (Old-Fashioned)
• 2/3 cup Milk (dairy or non-dairy like almond or oat milk)
• 1/4 cup Plain or Vanilla Greek Yogurt
• 1/2 cup Fresh or Frozen Blueberries
• 1 tablespoon Maple Syrup
• 1 tablespoon Chia Seeds
• 1/2 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
• 1/4 teaspoon Ground Cinnamon
• Pinch of Salt
• Optional Topping: 1 tablespoon crushed graham crackers

Step-by-Step Instructions

1. Mash the Berries: In a mason jar, small bowl, or any container with a lid, add about half of the blueberries. Gently mash them with a fork to release their juices and create a jammy base.
2. Combine Ingredients: Add the rolled oats, milk, Greek yogurt, maple syrup, chia seeds, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and salt to the jar.
3. Mix Thoroughly: Stir everything together until well combined. Gently fold in the remaining whole blueberries.
4. Chill Overnight: Cover the container and place it in the refrigerator for at least 6 hours, or preferably overnight.
5. Serve: The next morning, give the oats a good stir. If they are thicker than you’d like, add another splash of milk to reach your desired consistency. Top with crushed graham crackers and a few extra fresh blueberries, and enjoy cold.

Tips & Variations

• Pro Tip: Using frozen blueberries works wonderfully here. As they thaw overnight, they release their juices, creating a beautiful color and an even more intense blueberry flavor throughout the oats.
• Add Lemon: A teaspoon of fresh lemon zest mixed in will brighten up the blueberry flavor and add a lovely freshness.
• Boost the Protein: Add a scoop of your favorite vanilla or unflavored protein powder with the dry ingredients. You may need to add an extra splash of milk.
• Nutty Crunch: For extra texture, top with a sprinkle of toasted sliced almonds or pecans.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

• Can I warm this up?
  • While the fresh “pie” flavor is best enjoyed cold, you can certainly warm these oats in the microwave for 60-90 seconds for a cozier breakfast that tastes like a warm blueberry crumble.
• How long do these last in the refrigerator?
  • You can meal prep these for up to 4 days. The blueberries will continue to soften and release their color. Store them in individual airtight containers in the fridge.
• Can I use steel-cut or quick oats?
  • Rolled oats provide the best chewy texture. Quick oats will result in a much softer, porridge-like consistency, while steel-cut oats will not soften enough without being cooked.

Serving Suggestions

• These blueberry pie overnight oats are delicious served chilled. For the full “pie” experience, don’t skip the crushed graham cracker topping—it mimics the crust and adds a perfect crunchy texture.

Equipment

• Mason jar or lidded container
• Measuring cups and spoons
• Spoon for stirring

Ingredients

  

• 1/4 cup (25g) old-fashioned rolled oats (gluten-free if needed)
• 1/2 cup (120g) plain nonfat Greek yogurt
• 1/4 cup (60mL) nonfat milk or milk of choice
• 1/4 tsp liquid stevia or sweetener of choice, to taste
• 1/4 cup (35g) blueberries, fresh or frozen
• extra blueberries, for topping (optional)

Instructions

 

• Add oats, Greek yogurt, milk, stevia, and blueberries to a mason jar or container with a tight-fitting lid. Stir until well combined.
• Cover and refrigerate overnight, or at least 8 hours, to allow oats to soften.
• Serve cold, topped with extra blueberries if desired.

Notes

Mix everything thoroughly before chilling—do not leave ingredients layered, or the oats won’t soften properly. Best eaten cold, straight from the fridge. Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days. Substitutions: use instant oats instead of rolled oats, any milk of choice instead of nonfat milk, and your preferred sweetener (stevia, maple syrup, honey, etc.). Frozen blueberries can be used in place of fresh.
