Vegan strawberry banana overnight oats are sweet, satisfying, and full of the dreamy combo of strawberry and banana flavor! This healthy breakfast is made with just 6 ingredients.
Happy Monday! I’m thinking we should celebrate the last couple days of June with some sweet, summery, vegan strawberry banana overnight oats. Super simple (per usual), made with just a few healthy ingredients, and extra satisfying this time of year.
The strawberry + banana combo just never disappoints. Such a good mix, and what better way to highlight the pair than with some super rich and creamy overnight oats?
Let’s talk details!
Ingredients for vegan strawberry banana overnight oats
- Rolled oats:Â I always use old-fashioned, whole grain rolled oats because they have the best texture and chew.
- Ground flaxseed:Â ground flax provides a lot of nutrition, including omega-3s. It helps to give the oats a nice thick texture.
- Freeze dried strawberries: you’ll blend the freeze dried strawberries into a powder and mix into the oats, which gives a really strong, sweet strawberry flavor.
- Nondairy milk: you’ll soak the oat mixture in some nondairy milk overnight (or for a few hours). I like unsweetened almond milk for neutral flavor, but any nondairy milk works.
- Banana:Â top with plenty of ripe and sweet banana slices for a super summery bowl.
Tips for making vegan strawberry banana overnight oats
- Add a splash of milk before serving to get a texture you like. I typically don’t add more liquid at this stage because I like my oats VERY thick, but feel free to add a bit more milk to get the texture you prefer.
- Have fun with the toppings. In addition to the banana, feel free to add any other toppings you like on oats! A drizzle of unsweetened vegan yogurt or nut butter would be great, too.
These vegan strawberry banana overnight oats are super thick and rich, and full of sweet strawberry + banana flavor. They’re perfect for the summertime, and the best healthy and satisfying start to the day.
