Description

Delight in a healthy and flavorful breakfast with these Cinnamon Roll Overnight Oats. Combining quick oats, cooked quinoa, and warm cinnamon spice, this creamy, no-cook recipe is sweetened naturally with maple syrup and enhanced with chia seeds for added nutrition. Topped with a swirl of non-dairy yogurt and a dusting of cinnamon, it perfectly mimics the taste of your favorite cinnamon roll in a wholesome, ready-to-eat jar.

Ingredients

Scale

Base Ingredients

  • ½ cup quick oats
  • ½ cup cooked quinoa
  • 1 cup non-dairy milk

Flavor and Texture Enhancers

  • 2 tbsp non-dairy yogurt, plus more for drizzling
  • 2 tbsp maple syrup
  • 1 tbsp chia seeds
  • 1 tsp cinnamon, plus more for dusting

Instructions

  1. Combine Ingredients: In a jar or two separate jars, add the quick oats, cooked quinoa, non-dairy milk, chia seeds, non-dairy yogurt, maple syrup, and 1 teaspoon of cinnamon. Stir well until all ingredients are evenly mixed.
  2. Refrigerate Overnight: Seal the jar(s) and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight. This allows the oats and chia seeds to absorb the liquid, creating a creamy, pudding-like consistency.
  3. Finish with Toppings: Before serving, dust the top of the mixture with a little more cinnamon. Place some non-dairy yogurt in a ziplock bag and cut a small corner off. Pipe a swirl of yogurt on top for a decorative finish, then enjoy your cinnamon roll-inspired breakfast treat!

Notes

  • For best texture, use quick oats as they soften faster than old-fashioned rolled oats.
  • Cooked quinoa adds protein and a slight nutty flavor, making the dish more filling.
  • Non-dairy options like almond, soy, or oat milk and yogurt work well to keep it vegan.
  • Adjust sweetness by varying the amount of maple syrup depending on your preference.
  • Chia seeds not only thicken the oats but also add fiber and omega-3 fatty acids.
  • Make ahead breakfast perfect for busy mornings; oats can be stored refrigerated up to 3 days.
