Have tried this and it’s bloody delicious!
I got serious about Nutrition after qualifying in Child & Adolescent Nutrition at naturalhealthcourses.com. I’d highly recommend their courses in Nutrition, Yoga & Mindfulness. Boost your career and gain a diploma in any of their 57 health courses.
This looks easy and tasty! I might try it with cashew milk (don’t have almond milk right now) tonight…
Cashew milk is excellent. Creamy and slightly sweet tasting.
Do you not cook the rolled oats first?
Hi William, the oats will cook overnight as they’re soaking in the liquid. Thanks!
Really, all that happens during hot cooking, is the oats soak up hot water, so it’s all the same.
Hot cooking can make the oats a bit slimy. The overnight version makes for the flake to be a bit more chewy. I like it hot or cold anyway.

How many calories?
Hi Kimberly, while we don’t currently have nutritional information for the Pea Protein Overnight Oats, we are working to add nutrition facts to each recipe on our site. Please keep checking back!
Oh goody. It will make life much easier if i dont have to calculate the calories myself lol
I’ve been eating this at least 5 times a week for the last year. I thought I’d get bored with it as I am inclined to after two times in a row but I find interesting ways of switching it up e.g. fresh or mostly frozen fruits, different kinds of milk (cow’s, nut), kefir, a variety of nut or seed butters (cashew, almond, peanut, pumpkin, sunflower).
what is chia seeds??
I’ve been following and using your recipes for over a year because of their nutritionsl benefits. So I was disappointed in “almond MILK”. Milk only comes from mammals, and that’s not an almond! So it’s “almond beverage”. Please, don’t confuse those trying to improve their health!
I didn’t have(and don’t like) Almond Milk, so I used Coconut milk in its place. I liked that change and plan on keeping it on hand!
