For a richer flavor, use full-fat milk or add a tablespoon of coconut milk to the mixture. If you prefer a sweeter taste, add an extra drizzle of honey or a touch of maple syrup. Experiment with different toppings such as chia seeds, flax seeds, shredded coconut, or a sprinkle of dark chocolate chips. Overnight oats can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days, making them a great make-ahead breakfast option.

Follow The Directions
01
StepIn a large bowl or container, combine the milk, honey, brown sugar, vanilla extract, ground cinnamon, ground nutmeg, and salt. Mix well to ensure all ingredients are dissolved and evenly distributed. (5 minutes)
02
StepStir in the oats, ensuring they are fully submerged in the milk mixture. This will allow them to soften and absorb the flavors overnight. (2 minutes)
03
StepCover the bowl or container tightly with a lid or plastic wrap. Refrigerate overnight, or for at least 6 hours, to allow the oats to soften and the flavors to meld together. (6+ hours)
04
StepIn the morning, mash two of the bananas using a fork until smooth. Gently stir the mashed banana into the oatmeal mixture. This will add natural sweetness and a creamy texture to the oats. (5 minutes)
05
StepSlice the remaining banana into thin rounds. Divide the oatmeal evenly among bowls or small Mason jars. (3 minutes)
06
StepTop each serving with sliced banana, chopped toasted pecans, and a dollop of plain or vanilla non-fat yogurt, if desired. These toppings add texture, flavor, and visual appeal to the overnight oats. (2 minutes)
07
StepServe immediately and enjoy the delightful flavors of banana bread in a convenient and healthy breakfast or snack!
