Ingredientes y sustituciones
Los ingredientes que necesitas son:
- Copos de avena a la antigua – or gluten-free certified Avena if needed. The only options that won’t be suitable here are steel-cut oats or instant oats. The first ones are way too hard. They won’t soften in the milk and yogurt. Then, instant oats have less fiber and won’t absorb the liquid as much, resulting in a runny mixture. So, for the best results, always use old-fashioned rolled oats.
- Chia Semillas – semillas de chía are a superfood full of vitamins and nutrients.
- Leche de almendras o cualquier leche no láctea you love – it can be oat milk, soy milk, or coconut milk.
- Jarabe de arce - utilizar miel de maple or any liquid sweetener you love. For a low-GI option, go for coconut nectar or brown rice syrup. For a sugar-free option, choose liquid stevia drops, or a pinch of erythritol works as well.
- Extracto de vainilla – por el sabor.
- Proteína en polvo de vainilla – we used pea proteína en polvo with vanilla flavor. Other proteína a base de plantas options are peanut powder or almond powder, or hemp powder.

It has the most delicious vanilla flavor, just lower in protein.
Localización de averías
Sometimes even the simplest recipes don’t turn out the way you expected, so below, I listed some troubleshoot overnight oats tips for you.
- #Tip 1: Stir the mix 2 to 3 hours after it has been placed in the fridge. In fact, chia seeds sometimes gravitate to the bottom of the bowl and form lumps. So instead of placing the recipe in the refrigerator overnight, stop the soaking process after a few hours, stirring everything well. This prevents any seed packet or overnight oats from becoming too runny.
- #Tip 2: Adjust the texture – if you skip the protein powder in this recipe, you will have to add more fiber to balance the texture. For example, you can add 1 tablespoon of chia seed instead of 2 teaspoons or use 1 cup of rolled oats instead of 3/4 cup of oats. But, the easiest would be to use my easy 3-ingredient overnight recipe .
- #Tip 3: Thin it out – the most common issue with overnight oats is the texture you achieve the next day. They generally get too thick, especially when protein powder is involved in the mix because protein soaks up most of the liquid. So don’t hesitate to thin out the recipe by adding more almond milk until it reaches your favorite consistency. Finally, if you accidentally added too much milk, give a quick warm-up to the recipe to evaporate the liquid and reactivate the fiber.
