Introduction

Blueberry Pie Overnight Oats are a delicious, nutrient-packed breakfast that’s ready when you wake up. Combining creamy oats with a vibrant homemade blueberry chia compote offers the perfect balance of sweet and tangy flavors. It’s an easy, no-cook recipe that makes mornings a breeze.

Ingredients

• 1/2 cup + 2 tbsp gluten-free old-fashioned rolled oats (large flakes)
• 1/2 cup nut milk (vanilla unsweetened almond milk recommended)
• 5 tbsp vanilla coconut yogurt
• 1/4 tsp pure vanilla extract
• 1 tbsp pure maple syrup (or rice malt syrup, date nectar, or raw honey)
• 1/2 cup fresh organic blueberries
• 1 tbsp chia seeds
• 1 handful crumbled walnuts or granola (for topping)

For the blueberry chia compote/jam: (Makes about 1 cup)

• 2 cups fresh blueberries
• 1 heaping tsp lemon zest
• 2.5 tbsp fresh lemon juice
• 2 tbsp pure maple syrup
• 2.5 tbsp chia seeds
• 1/2 tsp vanilla extract

Instructions

1. Step 1: In a small mason jar or container, combine the oats, nut milk, coconut yogurt, vanilla extract, maple syrup, fresh blueberries, and chia seeds. Stir well to ensure oats are fully coated with the yogurt and milk mixture.
2. Step 2: For the blueberry chia compote, place blueberries, lemon zest, lemon juice, maple syrup, chia seeds, and vanilla extract in a small saucepan over medium heat. As the blueberries begin to burst, mash them gently with a wooden spoon.
3. Step 3: Increase heat to medium-high and bring the mixture to a boil. Cook, stirring often, for 5 to 8 minutes until thickened. Remove from heat and allow to cool. Taste and add more sweetener if desired.
4. Step 4: Spoon 1 tablespoon of the cooled blueberry chia compote into the jar with the oats and mix gently.
5. Step 5: Cover and refrigerate overnight or for at least 4 hours to let flavors meld and oats soften.
6. Step 6: Before serving, top the oats with an additional tablespoon of fresh blueberry chia compote, extra fresh blueberries, and crumbled walnuts or granola for a crunchy finish.

Tips & Variations

• Use gluten-free oats if you need a gluten-free option, and feel free to swap nut milk types based on your preference.
• Leftover blueberry chia compote makes a tasty spread on toast or a swirl in yogurt.
• Add a pinch of cinnamon or nutmeg for an extra layer of warming flavor.
• For a vegan option, ensure your yogurt and sweetener fit your dietary needs.

Storage

Store overnight oats covered in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Keep the blueberry chia compote in a separate airtight container in the fridge for up to 1 week. Reheat the compote gently if desired before adding to oats, but the oats are best enjoyed cold or at room temperature.

How to Serve

Serve this delicious recipe with your favorite sides.

FAQs

Can I use frozen blueberries instead of fresh?

Yes, frozen blueberries work well for both the oats and compote. Just thaw them slightly before cooking the compote, and expect a slightly more liquid texture.

Do I have to make the chia compote from scratch?

No, you can substitute with a no sugar added organic wild blueberry jam if you want to save time. The homemade compote adds freshness and texture but is optional.

Overnight Oats Base

• 1/2 cup + 2 tbsp gluten-free old-fashioned rolled oats (large flakes)
• 1/2 cup unsweetened vanilla almond milk (or your favorite nut milk)
• 5 tbsp vanilla coconut yogurt
• 1/4 tsp pure vanilla extract
• 1 tbsp pure maple syrup (or rice malt syrup, date nectar, or raw honey)
• 1/2 cup fresh organic blueberries
• 1 tbsp chia seeds
• 1 handful crumbled walnuts or granola (for topping)

Blueberry Chia Compote/Jam

• 2 cups fresh blueberries
• 1 heaping tsp lemon zest
• 2.5 tbsp fresh lemon juice
• 2 tbsp pure maple syrup
• 2.5 tbsp chia seeds
• 1/2 tsp vanilla extract

Instructions

1. Mix Overnight Oats Base: In a clean mason jar or similar container, combine rolled oats, nut milk, vanilla coconut yogurt, vanilla extract, maple syrup, fresh blueberries, and chia seeds. Stir well to coat the oats thoroughly in the yogurt and milk mixture, ensuring an even distribution of ingredients.
2. Prepare Blueberry Chia Compote: In a small saucepan over medium heat, add fresh blueberries, lemon zest, lemon juice, maple syrup, chia seeds, and vanilla extract. As the blueberries heat up, they will burst—use a wooden spoon to gently mash them. Increase heat to medium-high and bring the mixture to a boil. Continuously stir for 5 to 8 minutes until the compote thickens. Remove from heat and let cool to room temperature; taste and adjust sweetness if needed.
3. Combine Compote with Oats: Add 1 tablespoon of the cooled blueberry chia compote into the prepared overnight oats jar. Stir gently to swirl the flavors through the oats.
4. Refrigerate: Seal the jar or container and refrigerate overnight or for at least 4 hours to allow the oats and chia seeds to absorb the liquids, resulting in a creamy, pudding-like texture.
5. Serve: Before serving, top the oats with an additional tablespoon of fresh blueberry chia compote, extra fresh blueberries, and a handful of crumbled walnuts or granola for added texture and crunch.

Notes

• Use gluten-free rolled oats to make the recipe gluten-free friendly.
