Quick Overnight Oats 5 Ways! Vegan, Sugar-Free

While I usually don't eat "breakfast" in the traditional sense of the word, there have been a few times lately where I've been on the go and needed a quick meal I could have grabbed from the fridge to take with me to eat without needing to reheat. So I decided to give overnight oats a try! They are super good and sweetened naturally so there's no added sugar or maple syrup or agave. Recipes listed below!

Instead of plant milk I blend 1 banana with 2 dates and 1 1/2 cup of water and divide between two pint size jars

[@bunnyrooroo3997]

Personally, I like my overnight oats to be much thicker than what yours looked liked, but I realize that is purely a preference thing. Another good way to sweeten this up with whole foods is to blend the soy milk with the bananas, then add it to the oats. It works great!

[@QUADacityLyfe]

Lol. I love how relatable this video was. Never thought to use frozen fruit. Going to the kitchen NOW.

[@TXDHC]

Here's a mind blowing tip....there are measuring lines on the jars! 😉 Great idea!

[@WellYourWorld]

ha ha ha that would work too!

[@Gottahavefaith532]

You’re hysterical! Love your personality! Gonna try some of your recipes!

[@vegangelist]

Perfect happy medium for these would be to use the pint and a half jars. Those are my most used size! Love them. Adding some chia seeds will make these thicker, fyi

[@veganlion4328]

I found I like the quart jars better for this too. Yes there are wide mouth pint jars. Love these ideas! Walnuts would be good addition to the carrot cake and pumpkin. Yummm. I'm stuck on blueberry banana date flax right now.

[@WellYourWorld]

oh yes that does sound good!

[@sydneyrae.of.sunshine4393]

Your dry humor is KILLER 😂😂😂 Thank you for the simply & SUPER quick recipes!!

[@cindystrother7710]

Thank you so much Dillion for awesome breakfast ideas and TIP'S AND IDEAS and RECIPES and INFORMATION

[@smallfootprint2961]

Oh, yeh! First time! lol.

[@Wanderlustwaltz]

🤣🤣🤣

[@DaveDabomb]

Definitely going to have to try this. I’m getting tired of cooking my oats and eating them the same way every morning. Thank you Dillon!

[@magotboy]

Now this video really showed your personality. Loved it!

[@mollymeyer3129]

Just found you and subscribed. Love this channel. Useful and funny! Thank you. Can't wait for more.

[@karenmiyasaki8298]

Love it! Definitely trying these!! Especially the carrot cake! 😋

[@sharonsanita5840]

Great video! I forget that something so easy can be so tasty. Your close up was priceless! 😜

[@dawnangela4364]

I love overnight oats - this is a terrific video, thanks Dillon! 😀

Awesome video! Love your humor! These look delish

[@ladybrooks3885]

Yummy...perfect for anytime. Love you Dillion. Great recipes.

[@lesliec887]

Okay, I have only made the brownie and pumpkin pie one. SO far they are so great! I will be trying the others soon as well! Thanks

[@naomiholliday3863]

Hi Dillion thanks for sharing these easy recipes. Keep em coming. I’m looking forward to the Instantaneous Pot meal. Have a great night.

[@WellYourWorld]

Will do! Thank you.

[@phylliscable63]

I just started making overnight oats about a month ago for the first time. After watching your video, I decided to try doing one with tropical fruits similar to the one you made. I had some pineapple and frozen mangoes so I put them in it with some ginger and dried raspberries for my breakfast tomorrow.

[@paulasidlowski8426]

Thanks Rebecca & Dillon! They all sound so good. Dillon you crack me up 😂

[@FirebreathingVegan1]

Thank you for showing an appropriate amount of oats for a single serving!! I can't get over the 1/4-1/2 cup portions in most recipes...that's not enough food!!

[@WellYourWorld]

💪💪💪💪

[@WholeBibleBelieverWoman]

I've really been enjoying about a cup of rolled oats soaked overnight in water. In the morning I dribble just a little bit of maple syrup into it and stir. Very simple and so satisfying!

[@pamgraves811]

Absolutely genius

[@vldarden]

Yes..there are wide mouth pint jars. I'm the queen of mason jars. Use them for most everything..Love these. Kilner actually makes a jar specifically for overnight oats..

[@loriloveslettuce2996]

always great videos!! ❤️🌱💪

[@harperdron5076]

You’re hilarious I love it ❤️❤️😂

[@alexachenbach821]

I Love your over night oats.

[@PamelaJ56]

Roasted acorn squash is a good sub for pumpkin also, especially if it’s been roasted with cinnamon and other spices and a little maple syrup.

[@_Lisa_S_]

*Note to self (AGAIN): Do NOT drink water while watching Dillons videos. You will end up with it on your shirt and keyboard. Noted. You rock!! XO

[@ima7333]

This is why i love your stuff Dillon. That cheekiness is so damn cute. If you use a wee bit of coconut milk in there it’ll taste like piña colada. Somehow i make the brownie version the same way w/ hazelnut milk. My son loves the nutella kind of taste.

[@maggiemay8622]

Where have you been all my life!? Love your recipes and videos 👍🏼you absolutely rock👏🏻👏🏻

[@WellYourWorld]

You have found us now!!

[@rwillis6101]

Mashing up the whole banana makes it sweeter. All of those look delicious

[@WellYourWorld]

Thank you!

[@PamelaJ56]

Microwaving the banana first gives it even more flavor.

[@2200chuck]

As you already know, I am not vegan but love your channel. THESE look awesome. I'm going to make them and I've also shared them on my FB page. Awesome Oats!

[@WellYourWorld]

Thank you Chuck!

[@alexachenbach821]

Thank you.

[@vldarden]

I make apple pie oats..diced granny smith, raisins, dried cranberries, cinnamon is optional, I cook this together with old fashion oats and just water..when ready, I add ground flax, chopped walnuts, sliced almonds, and a teaspoon of maple syrup...you could omit the maple syrup and I'm sure that this could be an overnight oat option but I prefer my oats warm.

[@denisepinet9472]

I love overnight oats. I have it everyday around 12 for lunch.

[@jacksonblack2776]

That close up at the end! Had me in tears! 😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@deeanndaniels3893]

I never enjoyed typical breakfast foods too much, but I like oats and berries. I like to eat at 10 or 11 usually. Nice video👍

[@WellYourWorld]

Thank you Dee Ann!

[@carolyn6689]

Wow!They all look delicious Dillon 😍😋I forget how versatile oats can be..my everyday oats are " 1/2 cup Old fashioned,blueberries,blackberries,strawberries ,banana,walnuts,flaxseed and cinnamon...top it off with almond milk.So good,but I need to switch it up ,honestly😪🤦❤👍🏻

[@esthermontesdeoca3200]

You are awesome, thanknuou@

Love overnight oats. O haven't tried the tropical one. Will try though.

[@WellYourWorld]

That one was super good! Thank you

that guy is hilarious :))) love the channel

[@alwayswfpb]

Quart size = Dillon portion! Perfect in the small wide mouths using 1/2 cup oats. Good time to add flax meal! Love your recipes! Oh yes...LOVED the cheesy beginning! You’re such a ham!

[@WellYourWorld]

ha ha thank you!

[@bonnij]

You’re just the best 😂

Too Funny! You're The Best Dillon! Love Ya Right Back!

[@gmcil1958]

Thanks, Dillon. I was just thinking about this as I was making some granola (your's) pondering what the hype was about. I'm trying a couple of these.

[@WellYourWorld]

Ya they are pretty good!

[@Daringtobemyself]

I love that you don't add sugar or sugar substitute. I find that adding bananas or raisins makes my oatmeal plenty sweet.

[@hodaradwan8366]

How do we buy your sauce ? Love your videos great teaching no nonsense

[@gloryb-tv]

I'll have to try these and the date paste idea. QQ - what microphone are you using? The sound is excellent. Thx!

[@WellYourWorld]

Nice to see you here! That is a sennheiser wireless microphone

[@d.rabbitwhite]

I can not get my child to willingly eat oats. I do this: First note; i don't know measurements I wing it to get the desired result. Soak the steel cut oats over night, blend with 5-8 dates, oat milk and or water, chia and or grnd flax seed, cocoa pwder, until super smooth and thickened. I do it until it is steaming my blender inside. Coco 'pudding' for breakfast! Sometimes I add some avocado, for smoothness and if I want to be really fancy with flavour depth a weeeeee bit of nama shoyo and balsamic vinegar a very weee bit.

[@WellYourWorld]

Thank you for sharing! 💪

[@d.rabbitwhite]

@@WellYourWorld thank for the opportunity to do so; what ever makes it easier for us all to eat with care, and for keeping a kindly and calm space. I forgot the part where I serve it with berries and/or whatever other fruit is around.

[@susieQ666]

date paste genius 😀

[@WellYourWorld]

🥰

[@kathysharp7551]

Wow, I've tried the tropical (did not have coconut, so subed a tiny amount of coconut extract) and the carrot cake (in which I used steel cut oats - aka irish oats - instead of rolled oats) I used only 1/2 the amount of oats but still all the fruit. They were both fantastic! I liked the tropical cold and carrot cake heated. I can't wait to eat more, lol 🥰

[@WellYourWorld]

That's wonderful Kathy! Glad you enjoyed the recipes!

[@lynkeenan4265]

Hey love watching your videos I tried to get some of your products but unfortunately you don’t ship to Scotland Love your humour and you and Reebs are great together love your T Shirt’s

[@scheristamper9282]

I just started making over night oats. I am going to try a few of these they sound so good. I was wondering how long do they last in the fridge before going bad?

[@Rearnold1987]

New Subscriber here. Thanks Dillon for all these recipes, I'll have to try them all. Question, How often is your Website sauces and mixes restocked? I'm going to start eating more SOS free.

[@WellYourWorld]

I’m hoping to have those out of stock items in around a month. Working hard on it. Thank you!

[@kristidyson443]

Walmart sells the jars too

[@abbygailhavel3655]

Definitely felt that one! I used 2 pound weight and that was a killer. What poundage do you use or recommend? Do you recommend doing this workout 3 x’s a week? Thank you so much💐

[@erid143]

I'm eating a lot more vegan meals*, and I'll watch "what I eat in a day, vegan" videos, and I'll see many of them eat a big bowl of over night oats. It always SHOCKS me to see them eat the whole thing (with fruit topped on also)as with me, as much as I can put away, I'm feel full for the rest of my life after 1/4 cup of oatmeal. *My husband DOES NOT EVER want to be vegan, and I do, so we compromised; I eat vegan meals at home when he is at work, and make a plant heavy meal with grass fed meat when we eat together. It's been working really well this way :)

[@kathysharp7551]

The big eaters have eliminated all animal products and all oil. Thats how they can eat so much without feeling sick and while staying slim. During my transition to whole food plant based eating, I was like you. Could not eat much. But, now that I'm well down the road with no animal products, processed food, or oil, I eat all the time. Eg today's breakfast: oatmeal (1/2 cup dry), 1/2 cup strawberries, 1/2 cup prunes, 1/2 cup beans, 3 cups finley chopped salad (greens and purple cabbage), and a dressing made by mixing tomato paste with balsamic vinegar. Plus water and coffee. And, I'll eat again in just a few hours. I'm 5'11 and 145 pounds (well within ideal weight); shorter folks may need fewer calories. But still, the calorie density of whole plants is really low. But, if I eat out and the food has oil, I'm done for the day. I can only eat about a 1/2 meal sized serving and I stay full for 2 meals, and I feel yucky.

[@kathysharp7551]

PS, when I make oats, I use water not soy milk. That's less fat, so I get to eat more all day and/or I can get my fat in other ways like a spoon of peanut butter as my dessert after dinner ;)

[@omalleysmith9100]

THat close up of your face at the end bahahahahaa!!! You must just sit and laugh and laugh when you edit these. Great stuff.

[@WellYourWorld]

Actually this was the first video completely edited by Reebs. She showed me and I laughed very hard. It is definitely not something I would put in my videos, but Reebs is better than I am...

It will get sweeter tasting as it sits in fridge overnite.

[@bobsturgis4674]

I usually cook my oats.Never thought of eating them cold.I use oats grd flax seed,walnuts,then i had a scoop of raw peanut butter,and berries,and a splash of unswt almond milk. Great ideas as all ways.Healthy Eating Everyone.🍎🌍✌

How many do you all make at a time? How long do they last in the fridge?

Have u try oat with slices of papaya

[@womanatthewell9603]

Thanks for all the variety recipes. Are you eating the overnight oats cold and not heating it up? I never ate cold oatmeal before.

[@WellYourWorld]

I do it cold, but I know some heat them up. Both are delicious.

[@krest2012]

how long can these be store in the fridge

[@dauntiekay2768]

I probably would use less oatmeal and milk if were making these I probably would try one with chia seeds and another with peaches and blueberries--lots of room for experimenting!

[@WellYourWorld]

Ya, there are infinite possibilities!

[@musicvixen24]

I like overnight oats for sure. I only use half a cup. Ladies I say start with half a cup of oats and see how it goes. Oats are super filling. I also use a whole banana but that’s just my preference.

What kind of oats? Rolled, steel cut, quick?

[@jeanneamato8278]

How long can they last in fridge?

[@cathisalach4540]

If u make a few of those how long will they keep for in the fridge?

[@WellYourWorld]

They should be good for several days in the fridge. You can do your whole week all at once.

[@lizziedripping71]

If you want to go hardcore, have porridge as it originated. Add only water (maybe a tiny pinch of salt), bring to boil then simmer for half an hour or more stirring regularly. Serve. 🤣🤣🤣 I know. However if you are trying to get off sugar & salt believe it or not this IS helpful. Porridge is filling & healthy. Dr Esselstyn recommends oatmeal.

[@mrswendyzarb]

How do steel cut oats go for overnight oats? Has anyone tried it? Do I need to cook them first? Thanks.

[@kathysharp7551]

I was just googling that yesterday. Apparently they do work without any cooking, but have a different texture. I'm going to the store to get some later today. Have you tried it yet (given that your post was 10 months ago)? If so, what did you think? Update: Yep they work :)

[@brenestrada3356]
