Hey, my flavor-smart ladies! It’s Cori Spicer from Flavormixture, and I’ve got a breakfast that’s all about making our mornings smooth and delicious. This Overnight Oatmeal with Almond Butter and Berries is creamy, nutty, and loaded with fresh berries—a no-fuss win for us women over 40 who need a quick, feel-good start to our busy days. Prep it at night, wake up to yum—it’s like breakfast that works while we sleep. Let’s get this going!
Why This Breakfast Fits Our Flow
We’re rocking life after 40, and this oatmeal gets us—zero cooking, big flavor, and a boost of goodness to keep us glowing. The oats fill us up, the almond butter adds that rich comfort, and the berries bring a pop of sweetness we deserve. It’s perfect for grabbing on the way out or savoring with a quiet moment—because we’ve earned both!
Ingredients
For the Oatmeal
- 1 cup rolled oats (old-fashioned, not instant)
- 1 cup milk (dairy, almond, or whatever you love)
- 1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt
- 2 tablespoons almond butter
- 1 tablespoon honey (or maple syrup)
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
For the Topping
- 1 cup mixed berries (fresh or frozen—strawberries, blueberries, raspberries)
- 2 tablespoons sliced almonds (optional, for crunch)
- Extra drizzle of honey (if you’re feeling sweet)
Instructions
Step 1: Mix It Up
- In a medium bowl or jar, combine the oats, milk, Greek yogurt, almond butter, honey, vanilla, and cinnamon. Stir until everything’s blended—don’t worry if the almond butter clumps a bit, it’ll soften overnight.
Step 2: Chill Overnight
- Cover the bowl or jar and pop it in the fridge for at least 6 hours (overnight is best). Let it do its thing while you catch some beauty sleep—because we’re worth it!
Step 3: Add the Goodies
- In the morning, give the oats a quick stir—they’ll be thick and creamy.
- Spoon into bowls or grab your jar, then top with berries and sliced almonds. Drizzle a little extra honey if you’re in the mood for more sweetness.
Step 4: Enjoy Your Win
- Dig in cold or warm it up in the microwave for 30-60 seconds if you prefer it cozy. Either way, you’ve just made breakfast like the boss you are!
Cori’s Flavor Tips for the 40+ Life
- Quick Swap: Use peanut butter or cashew butter if almonds aren’t your vibe.
- Berry Boost: Toss in chia seeds with the oats for extra fiber—sneaky health points!
- Make It Yours: Add a sprinkle of coconut or a few dark chocolate chips for a treat.
- Batch It: Double up and fridge it in jars—breakfast for days, ladies!
