Oatmeal Raisin Cookie Protein Overnight Oats
Yields: 1 jar
 
This healthy breakfast recipe tastes just like oatmeal raisin cookies! It takes 5 minutes to make, and it’s perfect for meal prepping. The overnight oats will keep for at least 4 days if stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
  • ½ cup (120g) plain nonfat Greek yogurt
  • ¼ cup (60mL) nonfat milk
  • generous ¼ tsp ground cinnamon
  • ¼ tsp vanilla crème stevia, or adjusted to taste
  • ¼ cup (25g) old-fashioned oats (gluten-free, if necessary)
  • 1 tbsp (10g) raisins, finely chopped
  1. Stir everything together until thoroughly combined in a mason jar or plastic container with a tight-fitting lid. Cover and refrigerate overnight, or for at least 8 hours.
Notes: Overnight oats are meant to be eaten cold, straight from the refrigerator! No need to heat them up.

Any milk may be substituted for the nonfat milk.

I highly recommend using the vanilla crème stevia! It’s one of my favorite ingredients, and you’ll use it in all of these recipes of mine. If you prefer, any sweetener may be substituted for the stevia. You’ll want the equivalent of about 3-4 teaspoons of granulated sugar.

Instant oats (aka quick-cooking or one-minute oats) may be substituted for the old-fashioned oats. Do not substitute steel-cut oats; they do not soften enough.

Remember to chop the raisins! I typically cut each raisin into 3-4 pieces. This ensures that every bite of your overnight oats contains a bit of raisin—and therefore every bite tastes like an oatmeal raisin cookie!
