I remember the first time I ever made overnight oats. I was rushing around trying to get everything ready for work, and the thought of making breakfast seemed impossible. But then I stumbled across this recipe, and it changed everything! Now, I make a batch on Sunday night, and its ready for me every morning. What does this mean for you? A stress-free breakfast. One less thing to worry about during a busy week. That sounds good, right? It all starts with the best blackberries you can find. During summer, I like to hike up the mountain with my dog to pick blackberries in the wild. It's a perfect day out. My sister is always worried I will run into a bear, but I haven't yet. Anyways, back to the recipe!

This blackberry crumble overnight oats recipe tastes like dessert, but it is healthy enough for breakfast. What’s not to love? The juicy blackberries mingle with creamy oats, and the oaty crumble gives the dish a beautiful textural contrast. It's also a customizable recipe. Feel free to use other berries or add your favorite spices and nuts. I once added a splash of elderflower liqueur, it was heaven! I can't wait to see what you come up with. Let’s dive in!

🍽 Ingredients
📖 Instructions
- Start by preparing the blackberry layer. In a medium bowl, combine 1 cup of fresh or frozen blackberries (if using frozen, no need to thaw), 2 tablespoons of maple syrup or honey, and a squeeze of lemon juice (about 1/2 teaspoon).
- Gently mash the blackberries with a fork until they release some of their juices. This will create a delicious blackberry compote.
- In a seperate bowl, prepare the crumble topping. Combine 1/4 cup of rolled oats, 2 tablespoons of almond flour (or all-purpose flour), 2 tablespoons of brown sugar (or coconut sugar), 1/4 teaspoon of ground cinnamon, and a pinch of salt.
- Melt 2 tablespoons of coconut oil or butter and pour it over the dry ingredients. Mix well with a fork until the mixture forms small clumps. If it looks to dry, add a teaspoon of melted coconut oil at a time.
- In a jar or container that you plan to keep in the fridge over night, layer half of the blackberry compote at the bottom.
- In another bowl, combine 1 cup of rolled oats, 1 cup of milk (dairy or non-dairy), 2 tablespoons of chia seeds (for thickening), 1 tablespoon of yogurt (optional, for creaminess), and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract.
- Pour half of the oat mixture over the blackberry layer in each jar. Then, add the remaining blackberry compote on top.
- Finish with the rest of the oat mixture, smoothing the top. Sprinkle the crumble topping evenly over the oat mixture.
- Cover the jars or containers tightly with a lid or plastic wrap. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the oats to soften and the flavors to meld together. If you are in a rush, it is best to make it the night before.
- In the morning, give the overnight oats a good stir before enjoying. If the oats seem too thick, add a splash of milk to reach your desired consistency. You can enjoy them cold straight from the fridge or warm them up in the microwave for a minute or two. Garnish with extra blackberries or a sprinkle of cinnamon, if desired. I also recommend adding a dollop of whipped cream!
📝 Notes
- Feel free to substitute blackberries with other berries like blueberries, raspberries, or strawberries.
- Add a handful of chopped nuts (walnuts, almonds, pecans) to the crumble topping for extra crunch and flavor.
- If you don't have chia seeds, you can use flaxseeds or leave them out altogether, but the oats may be less thick.
- For a vegan version, make sure to use non-dairy milk and maple syrup or coconut sugar instead of honey.
