Description

Enjoy a delicious and easy-to-make Cinnamon Roll Overnight Oats recipe that combines creamy vanilla Greek yogurt, warm cinnamon spice, and a touch of sweetness for the perfect make-ahead breakfast or snack. This healthy, gluten-free option requires no cooking and is ready to eat after a night in the fridge.

Ingredients

Overnight Oats

  • ½ cup rolled oats (regular or certified gluten-free)
  • 3 tablespoons vanilla Greek yogurt
  • ½ cup milk of choice
  • ½–1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon chia seeds
  • 2–3 teaspoons brown sugar (or maple syrup)
  • Pinch of sea salt (optional)

Optional Cinnamon Drizzle

  • 1 tablespoon maple syrup
  • ¼ teaspoon cinnamon

Optional Icing Drizzle

  • 3 tablespoons powdered sugar
  • 1 teaspoon melted butter
  • A drop of vanilla extract
  • Milk (1 teaspoon at a time, to desired consistency)

Instructions

  1. Combine Ingredients: Add rolled oats, vanilla Greek yogurt, milk, cinnamon, chia seeds, brown sugar (or maple syrup), and a pinch of sea salt into a sealable jar or container. Stir everything well to combine thoroughly.
  2. Refrigerate Overnight: Seal the container tightly and place it in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours or overnight to allow the oats to soak and absorb the flavors and moisture.
  3. Adjust Consistency: The next morning, check the oats’ thickness and add additional milk if you prefer a thinner consistency. Stir well before serving.
  4. Make Cinnamon Drizzle (Optional): Whisk together maple syrup and cinnamon in a small bowl. Drizzle this over the oats to boost the cinnamon roll flavor.
  5. Make Icing Drizzle (Optional): In a small bowl, mix powdered sugar, melted butter, vanilla extract, and milk a teaspoon at a time until you reach a pourable icing consistency. Drizzle over the oats for a sweet finishing touch.
  6. Serve: Enjoy the overnight oats cold straight from the fridge or warm them slightly if preferred before eating.

Notes

  • You can customize the sweetness and cinnamon level to your taste.
  • Use any milk you prefer – dairy or plant-based options work well.
  • Chia seeds add omega-3 fats and help thicken the oats, but you can omit them if desired.
  • For a vegan version, use plant-based yogurt and maple syrup instead of honey or brown sugar.
  • Overnight oats can be stored in the fridge for up to 3 days.
