Vanilla Coconut Overnight Oats
Smooth vanilla and sweet, chewy coconut pair together for the perfect creamy vanilla coconut overnight oats.
Servings: 2 servings
Ingredients
Coconut Overnight Oats with Vanilla
- 1 cup rolled oats
- 2 teaspoons chia seeds
- 1 cup non-dairy milk
- 6 tablespoons coconut cream
- 1 tablespoon pure vanilla extract
- 4 teaspoons unsweetened coconut flakes
- 4 teaspoons pure maple syrup optional, but recommended
- ½ teaspoon coconut sugar
Optional Toppings
- ½ to 1 cup fresh fruit sliced
- 1 tablespoon chopped nuts or seeds
- 1 tablespoon seed or nut butter
Instructions
- Set aside 2-3 resealable jars. Here are the glass overnight oat jars that I use–if using these, set aside 3 jars.
- Add all overnight oat ingredients to a mixing bowl for easier stirring. Stir the ingredients together until well mixed. Pour oatmeal mixture into jars. Coconut cream can tend to clump up--make sure to stir until no clumps remain.
- Seal jars.
- Store overnight in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.* Overnight oats will become thicker as each day passes. If desired, add non-dairy milk and mix well to thin it out. Enjoy cold, or heat in the microwave in 20-second increments until warm. Top with fresh fruit or other toppings before serving.

Notes
My go-to overnight oats jars are resealable, reusable and free from plastic. They seal very tightly and are going strong after two years of use!
*Overnight oats last up to 5 days if using the freshest ingredients and store-bought milk. Homemade milk tends to last only 3 days, so keep this in mind when making your overnight oats.
