Description
These Caramel Macchiato Overnight Oats combine the rich flavors of coffee and caramel, offering a creamy and indulgent breakfast that’s ready to go in the morning. Perfect for busy mornings or a relaxing weekend treat.
Ingredients
1/2 cup rolled oats
1/2 cup milk of choice (dairy or plant-based)
1/4 cup brewed strong coffee, cooled
2 tablespoons Greek yogurt or dairy-free yogurt
1 tablespoon caramel sauce or caramel-flavored syrup
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 tablespoon chia seeds
Pinch of salt
Optional toppings: whipped cream, extra caramel drizzle, cocoa powder, or chopped nuts
Instructions
- In a jar or airtight container, combine the rolled oats, milk, brewed coffee, yogurt, caramel sauce, vanilla extract, chia seeds, and salt.
- Stir well until all ingredients are fully mixed together.
- Seal the container and refrigerate overnight or for at least 6 hours.
- In the morning, give the oats a good stir. If the oats are too thick, add a splash of milk to loosen them up.
- Top with whipped cream, extra caramel drizzle, cocoa powder, or chopped nuts if desired.
- Enjoy cold straight from the jar, or warm gently in the microwave if preferred.
Notes
If you prefer a less sweet breakfast, reduce the amount of caramel sauce or syrup, or omit it altogether.
For a gluten-free version, ensure the oats are certified gluten-free.
These oats are a great make-ahead option and can be stored for up to 3 days in the fridge.
To make this recipe vegan or dairy-free, swap in plant-based milk and dairy-free yogurt.
