With May coming to an end, I’m super excited for it to be officially Summer! I am imagining all of the awesome Summer flavors that come with this sunny season. But for starters, I had to share this Overnight Oats recipes with you guys!
I can admit that this was my first time going down the ‘overnight oats’ route. While this has been a trend for some time, I honestly was a bit concerned that I wouldn’t fully enjoy it. However, to my surprise, keeping them overnight is AMAZING!
OK, so if you’re a lover of oatmeal, then I’d recommend heading over to our Breakfast Peanut Butter Banana Chia Seeds Oats, which is such an easy recipe to whip together.

Packed with great, bold flavor and nutrients, this oatmeal is a sure way to get your tastebuds dancing and your tummy full for a few hours before needing another bite to eat. Haha.
However, if you aren’t into actual oatmeal bowls, but love to incorporate oatmeal in whatever you decide to create, this Banana Mango Raspberry ‘Sunrise’ Oats Smoothie is full of fruity flavor.
On the other hand, one of our most loved oatmeal recipes are these Flourless Vegan Banana Oats Waffles! Made right in a blender, these Gluten-Free waffles are naturally sweetened, fluffy, thick, airy, and full of flavor. The perfect breakfast or brunch dish with the perfect taste for your mornings!

Tips | Notes:
STORAGE: Can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. Perfect for meal prep for the week!
TOASTED PECANS: Add chopped pecans to a baking sheet and toasting them in the oven (400 degrees Fahrenheit) for 5-10 minutes, tossing them halfway to avoid browning on one side.
NUT BUTTER: If preferred, you can always substitute peanut butter with Almond butter, SunButter (perfect for allergy-free needs!), Tahini (Sesame Seed Butter), Hazelnut Butter, etc.
SWEETENER: Instead of maple syrup, you can simply use Agave or add an additional 1/2 cup mashed bananas to oats as a sweetener.
