Ingredients
Scale
For the oats:
- 2/3 cup old-fashioned rolled oats
- 1 1/4 cups almond milk
- 1 tbsp chia seeds
- 1.5 tbsp Lotus Biscoff spread
- 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
For the toppings:
- Biscoff biscuits, roughly crushed into 1/2-inch pieces
- Fresh strawberries
- Banana, sliced into 1/4-inch rounds
- Yogurt (Greek, regular, or dairy-free)
Instructions
- Prepare the Biscoff Base Mixture: Microwave 1.5 tablespoons of Biscoff spread in a microwave-safe bowl or serving jar for 10 seconds until slightly softened and easier to stir. Stir until fully melted and pourable to ensure smooth incorporation into the oats.
- Build the Overnight Oat Base: In a mason jar or container, combine 2/3 cup rolled oats and 1 tablespoon chia seeds. Pour the melted Biscoff spread over the oat mixture, then add 1 1/4 cups almond milk and 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract. Add a tiny pinch of salt to enhance flavor. Stir thoroughly to distribute the Biscoff spread evenly.
- Chill Overnight: Cover the jar and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, preferably 8 or more hours to allow the oats to soften and the flavors to meld. The chia seeds will thicken the mixture, creating a creamy, pudding-like texture with a perfectly chewy consistency.
- Prepare Fresh Toppings and Serve: Just before eating, slice the banana into 1/4-inch rounds and roughly crush the Biscoff biscuits into 1/2-inch pieces. Prepare strawberries as desired. Stir the oat mixture to loosen, then layer it with yogurt and your chosen toppings in your serving bowl or jar. Adding the crushed biscuits just before serving keeps them crunchy.
Notes
- Use old-fashioned rolled oats for the best texture; quick oats may become mushy, and steel-cut oats won’t soften enough.
- Any type of milk can be used as a substitute for almond milk, such as dairy milk, oat milk, soy milk, or coconut milk.
- Chia seeds help thicken the oats; ground flaxseed is a good alternative if chia seeds are unavailable.
- You can swap Lotus Biscoff spread for peanut butter, almond butter, Nutella, or Trader Joe’s cookie butter for different flavors.
- Fresh fruit toppings can be customized with blueberries, raspberries, peaches, mango, or any preferred fruit.
- Store overnight oats in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days; add fresh fruit and biscuit toppings just before serving to keep them fresh and crunchy.
- Make sure not to use too little liquid to avoid a pasty texture; the recommended ratio is 1 part oats to 2 parts liquid.
- Microwave Biscoff spread only until pourable to prevent separation or an oily layer.
