Ceylon Cinnamon (known as ‘true cinnamon’ and packs the most health benefits)

• Another amazing source of anti-oxidants

Flaxseed (ground)

• Source of Omega 3 Fatty Acids
• Good protein content

Oat Milk (you may substitute this with any milk of your choice)

While not the same as eating a bowl of oatmeal it still contains some good stuff!

• Fibre
• Calcium
• Little bit of protein
• Low fat

Some brands will fortify with extra vitamins such as Vitamin A, D, and B’s. It is best though to get a brand with the fewest ingredients. My favourites are ISOLA BIO, ELMHURST, and CHOBANI. 

Kefir – Coconut is my favourite 

• Contains healthy bacteria for your gut
• Great source of  protein
• Aids in digestion
• High in potassium
• Boost immune system

Vegan Vanilla Protein Powder

• Many of us require a little bit of a protein boost into our days.
• I use Genuine Health Organic Fermented Vanilla Protein Powder. It’s delicious, vegan, and with no unpronounceable additives.
• A lot of protein powders unfortunately have many additives. Be sure to buy high quality if you are going to use one.
• Another alternative I like to use is pure Pumpkin Seed Powder. It comes unflavoured and is honestly pretty tasteless, so you don’t even notice it’s there lol.

Overnight Oats Notes

1. Don’t omit the ground flaxseed as it helps to absorb the liquid and thicken your oats.
2. You may add a little more or less liquid to go with your preference of desired consistency. I sometimes like to add a little coconut kefir just before eating to add a bit of a creamy texture.
3. Different protein powders WILL change the taste. The Vanilla Genuine Health one is the absolute best tasting I have found, EVER. And by a lot. You can also omit the protein powder entirely and add in 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract instead.
4. Overnight oats are super versatile! You can switch up the milks, flavour options and toppings easily, so experiment and have fun.
5. Many people say to consume your oats within a day of making them but I prepare mine in advance for 3 -4 days at a time and on the third and fourth day they are still delicious.
6. Overnight oats can be eaten cold or warmed up. They choice is yours! I generally eat mine straight out of the fridge. It really doesn’t get any easier to grab a quick breakfast.
