How to make cinnamon roll overnight oats. 

We came across this recipe on TikTok (and thank goodness we did), but we decided to add even more good-for-you ingredients to optimize the already-delicious recipe. Let's dive in. 

Serves 2

Ingredients: 

  • 1 cup old-fashioned oats
  • 1¼ cups milk of choice 
  • ½ cup plain Greek yogurt (or dairy-free yogurt) 
  • 1 scoop mbg beauty & gut collagen+ (unflavored or chocolate)
  • 1 tablespoon chia seeds
  • Heaping ½ teaspoon cinnamon
  • 2 tablespoons maple syrup 
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla extract 

Method: 

Overnight oats are arguably one of the easiest breakfast recipes, especially because they're already prepped and ready in the morning, meaning you can grab and go. It takes four easy steps:

  1. Combine all ingredients into a sealable container or jar.
  2. Mix together well.
  3. Put a lid on your container, and place in the fridge overnight.
  4. Portion into two servings the next day and enjoy! 

If you want to add extra flavor, you can dress your oats with a dash of cinnamon or toss in a cinnamon stick if you're feeling fancy. 

Health benefits.

While this breakfast may seem like a sweet treat, it's secretly packed with nutrients. Here, a breakdown of the health benefits of this dish: 

The takeaway.
