Berry lovers, I've got a great new breakfast idea for you. This triple berry overnight oatmeal recipe is so good! It's packed with strawberries, blueberries and blackberries, so you know it's as nutritious as it is delicious. The berries are sensational superfoods loaded with nutrients that may help reduce inflammation and even prevent chronic diseases. Research shows that antioxidant-rich berries may help with brain function, blood sugar and cholesterol, among the many health benefits of berries. Best of all, berries add fresh flavors to all sorts of recipes, including this overnight oats recipe.
If you're a berry lover, then this triple berry oatmeal recipe is a must-make for breakfast. It's a nutritional powerhouse! Plus, the overnight oats recipe is so simple, and it's packed with protein to jumpstart your day. Check out the health benefits of protein.
If you're looking for an easy, delicious breakfast, then here it is. The oatmeal has plenty of fresh berry flavor, thanks to the fresh strawberries, blueberries and blackberries. Plus, the mixed berry Greek yogurt or skyr (skyr is an Icelandic dairy product with a high protein content and plenty of vitamins) adds additional sweet berry flavor. The creamy protein comes from the milk and Greek yogurt (check out the health benefits of Greek yogurt and learn about the health benefits of skyr). The healthy oats and chia seeds are a wonderful source of fiber and other nutrients. Check out the health benefits of fiber.
The high-fiber recipe takes only about five minutes to prep the night before you plan to serve it. Here are the nourishing ingredients needed to make this wholesome oatmeal recipe: milk, mixed berry Greek yogurt (or skyr), vanilla extract, rolled oats, chia seeds (or ground flax), salt and fresh berries. I used strawberries, blueberries and blackberries, but you can choose your favorites. All you do is combine the gluten-free ingredients then let them soak in an airtight container in the refrigerator for at least four hours (or overnight) before serving.
You can enjoy this nutritious and delicious overnight oats recipe straight out of the refrigerator or warm it up. Add a drizzle of honey on top if you like. It's a wonderful grab-and-go breakfast during the busy week, or slow down and warm it up to serve as a soothing weekend brunch. We love it with additional fresh berries and chopped nuts on top.
