Servings: 2 servings
Calories: 398kcal
Ingredients
- 1 cup old fashioned rolled oats
- 1 tablespoon chia seeds
- ⅔ cup coconut cream
- ⅔ cup coconut milk (or favorite type of milk)
- 2 tablespoons cottage cheese
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 teaspoons honey (optional)
- 1 tablespoon shredded coconut (optional)
Instructions
- Add the oats to a large storage container or bowl, then stir in chia seeds, add coconut cream, milk, cottage cheese, vanilla, and honey. Stir everything to combine, then cover with a lid and store in the fridge for at least 2 hours or overnight.
- Once the oats have softened and soaked up the liquid, stir everything again and spoon into individual mason jars or bowls. Serve chilled, topped with shredded coconut, fruit, granola, or plain. Store up to 5 days.
Notes
- Coconut is sometimes an elimination food on a migraine diet. For plain overnight oats, substitute the coconut cream with another type of milk - it will just be less creamy.
- For the milk, I used Mooala coconut/oat milk. Hemp, rice milk, or regular milk are also favorites.
- If using oat milk or sweetened milk, you may not need to add honey. Taste and adjust accordingly.
- For additional protein, add your favorite protein powder.
- For low sodium, use a low sodium cottage cheese or omit.
