Ingredients you will need to make these high protein overnight oats

  • Go Hop Overnight Oats. Go Hop has many delicious flavours of overnight oats, but I decided to use maple & walnut. I personally think it’s the perfect breakfast flavour, it has just the right amount of sweetness and a delicious crunch from the walnuts. Their overnight oat blends are always peanut free, plant-based, and lactose free, making it a great choice for almost everyone!
  • Chia Seeds. I love adding chia seeds for extra fibre and texture. It makes the overnight oats so creamy and thick!
  • Hemp Hearts. These hemp hearts are great to add extra protein, they’re high in omega-3s and omega-6.
  • Milk. You can use any milk you’d like, I used oat milk!
  • Toppings. I added crushed walnuts, banana slices and hazelnut butter. You can add in your favourite toppings like berries, yogurt, etc.

Tips on making these maple walnut overnight oats

  • Use a glass jar. I love using a glass jar to make my overnight oats because I find they stay more fresh! I love using the smaller jars as well making it the perfect size per portion and it’s easy to take along and eat anywhere!
  • Measure your milk. I included measurements in the recipe, so follow them for the right texture! If you prefer thicker oats, use the quantity I included. If you want them a bit more liquidy, add a few more teaspoons. However, if you find the oats are not your desired consistency the next morning, these overnight oats are very forgiving! You can simply add a bit more milk before enjoying if you want it more liquidy, and they will taste great.
  • Refrigerate overnight. I know I mentioned you can refrigerate it for 4 hours, but leaving it sit overnight will allow the milk to absorb all of the ingredients so you can get thicker oats. The flavours also have more time to marinate so you’ll get a delicious-tasting breakfast.
