Description
Pistachio Overnight Oats are a creamy and nutty breakfast packed with protein, fiber, and healthy fats. Made with rolled oats, milk (or non-dairy milk), chia seeds, and a touch of honey, these make-ahead oats offer a delicious and nutritious start to your day.
Ingredients
1/2 cup rolled oats
1/2 cup milk (dairy or non-dairy like almond, oat, or coconut milk)
1/4 cup plain Greek yogurt (or dairy-free yogurt for a vegan version)
1 tbsp chia seeds
1 tbsp honey or maple syrup (optional, for sweetness)
1/4 tsp vanilla extract
1/4 cup shelled pistachios, chopped (plus extra for garnish)
A pinch of salt
Fresh fruit (optional, for topping)
Instructions
- In a mason jar or airtight container, combine the rolled oats, milk, Greek yogurt, chia seeds, honey (or maple syrup), vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt. Stir well to combine all ingredients.
- Gently fold in the chopped pistachios, making sure they’re evenly distributed throughout the mixture. Save a few for garnish later.
- Cover the jar or container with a lid and refrigerate overnight (or for at least 4-6 hours). The oats will soak up the liquid and become creamy.
- The next morning, give the oats a good stir. Add a splash of milk to loosen the consistency if needed.
- Top with additional pistachios, fresh fruit, or a drizzle of honey for an extra touch of flavor.
- Enjoy your Pistachio Overnight Oats as a quick and nutritious breakfast!
Notes
You can swap pistachios with other nuts like almonds, walnuts, or cashews for a different flavor.
For a vegan version, use dairy-free yogurt and sweeten with maple syrup.
These oats can be made ahead of time for meal prep. Store leftovers in the fridge for up to 3 days.
If you prefer a sweeter flavor, add more honey, maple syrup, or a sugar substitute.
For a tropical twist, add shredded coconut or top with fresh mango slices.
