Get your day off to a great start with these two delicious make-ahead brekkies combined into one Chia pudding and overnight oats…two of my favourite breakfasts combined into one.

This banana overnight oats with chia seeds is easy to make and is loaded with flavor from just a few simple ingredients.  If you are looking to start off your day with BIG positive vibes, this beautifully layered brekkie is for you. Not only is it absolutely scrumptious, but it’s healthy and nutritious as well!

This easy overnight oats recipe is a healthy, make-ahead breakfast that’s perfect for busy mornings. Customize it with your favorite toppings! What could be better than a combo of these two healthy foods, with only blueberries and banana as sweeteners?

Chia seeds are high in fiber, minerals, antioxidants, and contain more omega-3 fatty acids than salmon! And oats – well they seem to have a million benefits…that I’m not going to get into now, because our mothers and grandmothers have told us to eat them enough times, I’m sure!

I’m always looking for ways to make my mornings more peaceful and making easy breakfasts that are both nourishing and filling is always at the top of the list. Discovering overnight oats felt like uncovering one of life’s greatest morning hacks. There’s no cooking, no need for multiple bowls, and infinite possibilities for flavor.

They are truly the best meal prep staple and this blueberry overnight chia/oats recipe is no exception. What could you possibly need more than a refreshing, fruit-packed start to the day?

These overnight oats pack 22 grams of protein per serving thanks to protein powder. We sweeten these oats naturally with banana, and add blueberries for more fruity flavor. Divide the mixture into two beautiful serving bowls or glasses for an easy grab-and-go breakfast.

One of the best things about this breakfast is that you just take it out of the fridge in the morning, top it with some yogurt and fresh fruit if you want to, and tuck right in. With minimal effort, you will be feasting like a king (or queen!). Honestly, it should be illegal for something so good to be so easy to make!

Another great thing is you can make a few at a go (the recipe is totally “multipliable”) and have them for the next couple of days. This blueberry chia pudding is not only delicious and super easy to make, but it also transforms plain chia pudding into a beautiful, stunning looking dish. I mean just look at the photo!

I can’t wait for you to try this one, I know you are going to love it. Be ready to be blown away by your new favorite breakfast!

Servings 2

Ingredients

Blueberry Chia Layer

• 1/2 cup blueberries, fresh or frozen
• 3 tablespoons chia seeds
• 3/4 cup almond (or any other) milk

Oat Banana Layer

• 3/4 cup rolled oats
• 3/4 cup almond (or any other) milk
• 1 banana
• 2 scoops protein or collagen peptides powder
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Optional Extras

• Handful of blueberries
• 1 banana, sliced
• 2 large spoonful’s of plain yogurt
• Flaked/desiccated coconut
• Hemp seeds
• Drizzle of nut butter

Instructions

Blueberry Chia Layer

• Divide the blueberries among two glasses and squish them slightly using a fork.

  Mix the milk and chia seeds together well, then pour into the two glasses, dividing evenly.

  Cover the glasses with clingfilm and place them into the fridge for 1-2 hours.

Oat Banana Layer

• Once the chia pudding has been in the fridge for an hour or two and gelled up a bit, you can start the overnight oat layer.

  In a small bowl, mash the banana using a fork. Mix in the rolled oats, milk, protein powder and vanilla essence.

  Divide the mixture between the two glasses then place them back into the fridge for a few hours, preferably overnight. When they are ready there won’t be any runniness; the oats and chia seeds should have absorbed most of the milk.

  Keep up to 3 days in fridge.

  Serving: The following morning (or whenever you have it) top with whatever you like...then enjoy! I have given some optional topping ideas, but feel free to get creative.
