Overnight Oatmeal In A Jar Recipe (A No Cook Breakfast)

I absolutely LOVE this Overnight Oatmeal In A Jar Recipe. It’s so easy to make and the results are delicious. Even if you’re not a fan of oatmeal, you will love this one.

It’s creamy, sweet and packed with flavor and texture. Unlike that gummy oats they sell at the supermarket.

This is the perfect thing to dig your spoon in. Forget about breakfast, this also works as an afternoon pick me up. Add your favorite toppings and you’re good to go. Personally, I recommend the blueberries. They compliment the oatmeal flavor so well. Also, the almonds provide the crunch and toasty part.

Blueberries remind me of my grandma. She can eat 1-2 pints in one sitting. So much so, that a few years ago, we were picking blueberries off a wild bush in Stowe, Vermont.

My grandma was so busy eating them that she didn’t notice that there was a bee sitting on top of a blueberry. That darn bee stung her right on the lips and my poor grandma had swollen lips for one week!

If you’re the kind of person that is running around in the morning, this Overnight Oatmeal In A Jar Recipe is perfect for you. Make a few jars the night before and just grab them on the go the next morning.

Take them to your work, gym or even in the kid’s lunch boxes – packed in a plastic container of course. This oatmeal takes literally seconds to make and you can customize it any way you would like.

My husband gobbled up this one and asked me to get a few jars ready in the fridge. Tomorrow I am running to Target to get a few more jars, that way when hunger strikes he has something to snack on. Plus, they look so pretty!

I hope you can give this delicious Overnight Oatmeal In A Jar Recipe a try. If you do, please come back and tell me how it came out.

      Hi Minerva thank you for stopping by! I am glad you liked the recipe. Isn’t it creamier and tastier that way?

      I haven’t tried it warm yet but I sure will!

    Do you have to cover the oatmeal over night?

      I would Edna, either with a lid or plastic wrapping paper.. In case the oatmeal dries in the fridge

    do you cook the grits before putting them in the jar?

      Hi Wanda! Actually the oats “cook” overnight in the fridge. That’s the beauty of this recipe! They DO NOT need to cook before adding them to the jar.

    Hi, is it ok to prepare 5 jars from monday to friday and leave them in the fridge until the day you need it or you have to prepare one by one each night to the next day?

      My question goes because could the oats get all watery or slimy or all mashed with a no nice presentation at the moment you eat it? What would it be your recommendation, thinking on doing something like the salads.
      thanks you

        The oats will be creamy and delicious! Depending on the toppings (almonds, berries, etc) you can add those the same day but the oats itself can be made days in advance
