Cinnamon Raisin Overnight Oats Recipe | Quick, healthy, and less than 10 minutes to prep! | A Sweet Pea Chef

I’m not sure how overnight oats passed me by for so long, but once I just finally tried overnight oats, I was in love.

Oh my, they are awesome!

I love that I can mix a few simple ingredients together at night and that it’ll be ready for me the next nothing.  10 minutes, then sleep.  Perfection.

Because what’s better than a delicious, clean-eating, healthy, and easy breakfast waiting for you when you wake up?

I mean…”sleep” is pretty much an ingredient here.

I also love that my kiddos love overnight oats, too. They enjoy choosing what flavors they want in their mason jars and it’s something they look forward to the next morning.

This overnight oats recipe is super tasty. It is jammed full of fiber and protein and yumminess.

Honestly, though, it is hard to go wrong with cinnamon, oatmeal, raisins, and yogurt.  I also add in chia seeds for additional protein and texture. So good, yet so simple!

    Made these without the chia seeds and using a local buckwheat honey and almond milk. Very good, I like mine warm, hubby enjoys his cold and this recipe is great both ways! Can’t wait to try more of your recipes!

  2. I have a couple questions, I’ve never made overnight oats before,can this recipe or any other overnight oats be made in the afternoon or do they need to be made in the evening, to be eaten the next morning? also with this recipe do you have to use pure vanilla extract? I only have imagination.

    Also how long can overnight oats last in the fridge?

    I made the overnight oats last night and just enjoyed them for breakfast. They have the perfect amount of sweetness and the texture was good. I like it cold and I love that it was ready when I woke up 🙂 thanks for sharing it .

  4. Hi Lacey, I like the idea of these overnight oats. Two questions … you mention honey (“it’s hard to go wrong with cinnamon, honey, oatmeal, raisins, and yogurt”) but no honey listed in recipe list of ingredients. Should I add honey? How much and before or after letting sit for 5 hours? Also, do you eat it cold or zap in microwave before eating? Always think of oatmeal as being eaten warm but this one is served cold, correct? Thank you.

    1. Hi Nancy. Thanks for catching that error in my recipe — you can add 1 tsp. honey if you want it to be sweet before putting in the fridge. As for serving, I personally like mine cold but you can totally stick it in the microwave for about 2 minutes to heat up — the choice is completely yours. I have updated the recipe to reflect this as well 🙂

    1. Donna, very good question! I personally like them cold but you can certainly heat them up in the microwave for a couple minutes to enjoy as well. I’ll put that in the directions as well – thanks for asking!
