Raspberry Almond Chia Overnight Oats are perfect for a grab-and-go breakfast or snack. Make them tonight and have breakfast waiting for you in the morning!
I hope everyone had a great Mother’s Day! My mom is still in town for a couple days, so I’m continuing the celebration with her. We still have lots of coffee shop dates to squeeze in before she has to leave, it’s kind of our thing when she comes up to visit. Since we’ll be busy the next couple days, I’ve got a couple jars of these Raspberry Almond Chia Overnight Oats all ready to go in the fridge for a quick grab-and-go breakfast.
Until the warmer months roll around, I tend to forget about overnight oats. Then I finally make myself some and wonder why I don’t always have some on hand in the fridge. They are so easy to make and I absolutely love them.
I tend to favor cold overnight oats over a hot bowl of oatmeal in the summer. Other than my hot cup of morning coffee, I’m all about the cold/room temperature meals. This is especially true after my long, sweaty, hot run every Saturday morning.
After guzzling down a bunch of ice water all I can think about is what I’m going to have for breakfast and how fast I can get it from the fridge to my mouth. These Raspberry Almond Chia Overnight Oats are perfect to have on hand because all I have to do is grab a spoon and dig in.
The oats and raspberries are a great way to replenish the lost carbs and the Greek yogurt, almond butter and chia seeds add a nice bit of protein to the oats.
The flavor combinations you can make for overnight oats are endless, but I’m particularly fond of these Raspberry Almond Chia Overnight Oats. Raspberries and almond flavor go together so well and when they’re combined with creamy overnight oats you feel like you’re having dessert for breakfast, which I would never say no to.
This recipe makes one large or two modest sized servings. You could also double the recipe so you have breakfast ready to go for most of the week. I’m all about easy in the mornings and these overnight oats are definitely easy!

These are my favorite overnight oats and I make them regularly. I often substitute natural peanut butter for the almond butter, and 1/2 scoop of vanilla protein powder for the maple syrup. And a heaping 1/2 cup of oats. Delicious!
I’m so glad you’ve been loving these oats Donna!
This is one of my favorite breakfast recipes. I make a double batch and have it for a few days, and it’s so delicious, nutritious, and satisfying. I often substitute other fruit or extract flavoring and sweetening agent, or peanut butter, but the original is still my favorite.
Where do you find those adorable jars? Can’t wait to try!
Hi Ashley! They’re Weck jars. You can get them on Amazon.
So refreshing! I love the combo between tart raspberries and creamy oats.
This was so good! Definitely a keeper for me! Can I ask about the nutritional facts though ~ is this for the whole recipe, or per jar? (Since the recipe makes 2).
Thanks!
Glad you liked the oats! The nutrition facts are per jar, so if you want to eat all of it double everything. :-)
This was the perfect start to the day!! I doubled the almond extract because I love almond flavoring, and it was amazing.
Good call on adding more almond extract Jennifer, I usually do as well! :-)
This recipe looks delicious, I can’t wait to try it! Where did you find the cute glass jars?
Thanks Darla!
The jars are Weck jars. You can buy them online or I believe Sur la Table and World Market both carry them.
