Blended Cottage Cheese Overnight Oats
Make easy healthy cottage cheese overnight oats layer with fruit for a yummy high protein macro friendly breakfast.
Ingredients
- ½ cup Old Fashioned rolled oats dried
- ½ cup almond milk or any plant based milk or dairy milk
- ½ cut low fat cottage cheese blend for best texture - see note below
- 2 teaspoon honey or maple syrup or golden monk fruit
- ¼ teaspoon vanilla extract
Adding fruit
- ½ cup frozen berries, defrosted raspberries, blueberries, etc
Instructions
- For the best creamy texture, we recommend blending the cottage cheese. Add 1 tablespoon of milk with the cottage cheese in a blender or with an immersion blender. If you don't have these, do your best to mash them with a fork.
- In a small bowl combine the rolled oats, remaining milk, blended cottage cheese, sweetener, and vanilla extract.
Adding fruit
- Defrost the frozen berries in the microwave for 20-30 seconds until they have a liquid syrup. Mash the berries with a fork.
- Layer your overnight oats with the frozen fruit or fresh fruit. We added some on the bottom and the top, plus mixed in a few fresh berries in the middle.
Notes
- With chunky cottage cheese: To make the oats with chunky cottage cheese, increase the milk to ⅔ cup. Proceed with the recipe and skip the blending.
- To add chia seeds: Mix in 1 ½ teaspoon of chia seeds per serving.
- Make as many jars as you want for the week but adding individual servings to each jar or by multiplying the ingredients by 4-5x for your week.
- To reduce the carbs and make these a little more macro friendly: you can swap the honey 1:1 for golden monk fruit or use ⅓ cup of rolled oats instead of ½ cup.
