Ingredients
Scale
Overnight Oats
- 320g plant based milk (e.g., Alpro Oat milk)
- 40g pistachio paste (100% pistachio)
- 120g fine rolled oats
- 1.5g salt
- 1g vanilla powder or paste
- 10g chia seeds
- 30g maple syrup
- 80g vanilla skyr-style yogurt (Alpro or any plant-based alternative)
Toppings (optional)
- Additional yogurt of choice
- Pistachio whipped cream (see instructions)
- Crunchy chopped pistachios
Instructions
- Blend pistachio milk: In a small blender, combine the plant-based milk and pistachio paste. Blend until the mixture is smooth and evenly combined to ensure the thick paste fully dissolves into the milk.
- Mix overnight oats: In a separate bowl, add the fine rolled oats, salt, vanilla powder/paste, chia seeds, maple syrup, and yogurt. Pour in the prepared pistachio milk and stir thoroughly until all ingredients are evenly combined. Transfer the mixture into a tupperware container, cover, and refrigerate overnight to allow the oats to soften and the flavors to meld.
- Prepare pistachio whipped cream: When ready to serve, whip plant-based whipping cream (such as Oatly) until slightly firm peaks form. Gently fold in pistachio butter and continue whipping until fully incorporated, creating a rich pistachio-flavored cream.
- Serve and garnish: Spoon the overnight oats into serving bowls. Top with optional yogurt, a dollop of pistachio whipped cream, and sprinkle with crunchy chopped pistachios for added texture and flavor.
- Storage: Keep leftover overnight oats refrigerated in an airtight container for up to 2-3 days. Stir before serving if liquid separation occurs.
Notes
- Use fine rolled oats for a softer, creamier texture; thicker oats may require additional liquid.
- Maple syrup can be substituted with other liquid sweeteners like agave or rice syrup.
- For vegan version, ensure all dairy ingredients, especially yogurt and whipping cream, are plant-based.
- Pistachio paste quality strongly influences flavor—100% pure pistachio paste is recommended.
- If you prefer thicker overnight oats, reduce the amount of milk slightly or increase oats.
